Does anyone have resource for what parks are open for xyz hours. We use to use touring plans. Pre covid. not sure that it would warrant a membership anylonger with covid messing everything up so much and guessing park hours and business of parks etc? what is everyones thoughts on this or other options free or good resource. doesnt have to be free. just worth the investment.

TP is still worth it for the crowd calendars, Lines app and room request faxing IMO.

Disneyworld.com has the calendar for all upcoming announced dates (through the end of November), it's free, and it's as official as it gets. Here's a link.

If that doesn't cover the month you want, and you want to look at past dates, try here.

Touring Plans offers a service as part of their yearly subscription to help you select rooms that match your category of reservation. In the old days it was a real Fax that was sent to the resort room planner(s). Now it is an email that is sent.

If you look at the maps for each hotel you are able to view room locations and pick a group of rooms that meet your preferences.

https://touringplans.com/hotel_maps/

You narrow down your selection and click on a room for a popup picture of the general view and right below the picture you will see something like this example from the WL:

To request this room, provide Disney with the following text:
Wilderness Lodge,Flr 1,NE-facing room.Exmple:1000,1001,1002,1003,2000,2001,2002

Because the Disney website is wonky. TP is more stable, has more accurate wait times and offers crowd estimates that the Disney website doesn't.

But the original question was where can you find park hours. It didn't ask about wait times, crowd estimates, etc.

TP posts the park hours (for free!) when Disney updates them..and it's more stable with pages that load faster and are less inclined to crash or freeze.

Does that answer make you happier?

Yes, it establishes that you consider TP to be the superior site to look for park hours, irrespective of the value of a TP subscription to obtain the other TP features.
