Im a bit far out, I will be at parks October 1st-6th. When do you think I should seriously start to make my park reservation? I know that park opening times will change so that why Im not looking to schedule my reservations too far out. Some advice I've read is to book them all for MK as that fills up the most and then as you get closer change them to the other parks.I do plan on doing MK twice, HS twice and EP and AK once. But when I look at last years park hours around that same time frame it seems that MK closed at 6PM on Tues, Th, F and Sun which for me is way too early. Just thinking ahead.

There’s really no downside to making them as soon as you can. You can always update them later.
 

So, the Tues, Thurs, Fri and Sun nights are typically for the Halloween Party (separate ticket/ additional cost). You're right to consider that those nights you might want to be in a different park (if you don't attend the party) whether that is through scheduling AK, HS or EP .....or through the use of a Parkhopper ticket if that is in your budget. However, PPs are correct to say, "As soon as possible" to reserve your parks. It's not hard to change them later, but if you wait too long (and who's to say what that means..), then your ability to make good decisions based on your preferences might be out of your hands. Sounds like you're putting good thought into already, so you're off to a good start. I hope you have a great trip!
 
Ah the Halloween Party! That makes sense, I do plan on skipping out on that but makes total sense ty.
