Using Last Year's Hours to plan next year's trip...

Does anyone do this? I was just wondering if last year's schedule would be pretty similar to next year's for the same week (EMH, parades, fireworks).

We just booked for May 07

I have done this before- I like to go to www.intercot.com and look at the historical hours listings. They list the park hours for the past 4-5 years. I can usually get a pretty good feel for what the hours might be based on the historical data.

Of course, now that WDW is posting park hours 6 months in advance, it is easier to plan!! It used to be so frustrating to wait for them to come out- sometimes not until less than 60 days out. Made ADRs hard to book.

I might use them as a very general reference, but with the way Disney keeps changing their Extra Magic Hour days, I wouldn't count on historical hours being worthwhile.

Thanks. I've never gotten my Dh to agree to a trip this far out so I've never had this much time to plan. I'm just using them as a guideline and will wait til November when they release the May '07 hours to finalize everything. I was just wondering how close they would be.

It's insane that I know where and when I'll be eating 9 months from now!
