This doesn’t sound good (EMH going away?)

[iujen94]

Hey @rteetz , what do you think of KtP’s rumor? No one else is reporting it or even retweeting it.

Nothing to see here. Disney doesn't take things away from paying guests to offer upcharge stuff.

 

[mom2rtk]

Just in the 1 week of October there are 4 nights of ticketed events so very possible. Another thought is sunset is by 7pm by then so cutting evenings saves them a bit on electricity vs sunrise around 8am.

The sun has always set earlier in the fall and winter.

If they're doing that to save money, I wonder if they'll drop ticket prices.

Before and after hour events don’t impact regular guests, don’t go if you don’t like them.

Except for they are still having events during most of the evenings, staying open until midnight.

Actually, yeah they do impact regular guests when they lose the free magic hours they used to get.

Sorry, I thought the wink face implied my comment was said sarcastically.

They absolutely do! I agree with you.

Oh whoops lol. Sorry! I'm running on a lack of sleep combined with arguing children here!

I can totally relate! May be why my initial comment wasn’t as clear as it could have been lol.

For a second there I wondered about you.

The loss of another onsite perk is lame. Of course there will be those who will be happy to give Disney more money no matter what.

 

[SaintsManiac]

They moved them. They didn’t REMOVE them. Right?

Right now there are none on the schedule for Oct 1-7. Just 2 AM.

Well there does seem to be a change with EMH at MK this fall. It’s something to watch for sure and makes sense.

 

[cjbcam]

Pretty soon they will sell tickets for every 2 hours of the day. Since I’ve heard of these extra ticketed “events” that’s all I’ve thought of. I mean they have daily rates for tickets and if there happens to be a hard ticket event you get kicked out early. It seems weird and so money hungry.

 

[samsonjs]

Do people plan around EMH? When we planned our trip we already had our dates planned, hotel booked and had a rough idea of which park which day before EMH was even released. Then it just happened that some had EMH while we were there. We only do one park per day so EMH is kind of luck of the draw. This seems like more of a loss for park hopper people.

 

[Cinderumbrella]

Yes. We go to MK PM EMH every trip (especially if it goes to midnight or later).

Do you get park hoppers? They're expensive. It seems useless to get them if the latest you can stay at any park is 9pm now. You can't hop over to MK after closing another park.

Which they are bringing in extra money for vs the perks of EMH.

We are AP holders. But when we aren’t we always have hoppers. We never stay in same park all day.

They’re gonna get nailed when the economy crashes, and honestly they deserve it. There is no valid reason to stay onsite anymore:


Nightly parking fees
Transportation to and from the parks is horrible
Select offsite hotels now get 60 day fast passes
Magic Hours at MK being removed, and you can bet the other parks will follow suit as well

If you’re tired of this stuff, take a break from the parks for at least a year, I promise you if enough people do it, it will have an effect.
