Updated Park Hours

[1Grumpy9]

I just went on to the Disney website and saw that the week of Oct. 31-Nov. 6 some of the park hours have changed. I am extremely excited especially since they added an extra 3 hrs to EMH on Nov. 5th at MK. That is our last day there and it will be a great ending to a Girls Trip.

That's great, but just to be sure I'd check a few unofficial sites for accuracy, Disney's website isn't known for thier accuracy and is often the last to be updated when changes are made.

Here is the travel agents calendar which is one of the most accurate sources out there:

Thanks for the info...I also found those hours on www.easywdwinfo.com. I will also look at Touring Plans to make sure. Even if it doesn't end up that those are the hours, we still have the extra hours in the evening before we leave town.

The change in hours changed the TP crowd levels for that week quite a bit. I've been tracking those dates on TP because we're there Nov1-6.

My friends and I are very laid back, so for us we aren't "commando type" planning people. Whatever happens, happens for us. We do have things that are "musts" for us. This is one of my friends second time there, so for her it is showing her some things that she didn't see the first time (aka CoP and Tiki Room). For us...It is what it is...LOL!!!

We are there the same time. TP has changed its per park ratings 3-4 times since the update and it is DRIVING ME CRAZY! Please predict something and stick with it for more than an hour!

It actually hasn't changed our plans, but I agree it gets frustrating. This time it's just DH and I so we don't have any child issues/wants/needs to deal with. We are planning on a LOT of time at F&W. We have tickets for the last MNSSHP
on our arrival day. We're planning to be at Epcot Wed/Thurs and then MK Friday and AK Saturday. Sunday before we leave we'll spend a bit more time at Epcot.
We're staying at BC for easy access.

I hear ya! It hasn't changed our plans either since the difference between a 4/5 and 6 isn't much (at least not to us). We are used to going in the summer when it is always 7 and up.

I am more frustrated that they can't pick a number and stick with it. Perhaps they need to complete their analysis before jumping the gun and posting high numbers, then quickly retracting, then jumping back up again. Josh at easywdw.com hardly changed his recommendations at all.

We just booked a last minute trip to WDW for 11/01 thru 11/06. Got a pin for kids being free, couldn't resist the almost $500 savings.

I did notice Touring Plans had some changes for that time but it wasn't really that much of a change.

It is going to better than going at Thanksgiving, Christmas or the Summer. Also, we always get Park Hoppers so if one park gets to busy, we just move onto the next one. Also we are always there for Rope Drop so we get a lot of the big stuff done before most people even get to the park.

Can't wait!
