When will July hours be updated?

[TISHLOVESDISNEY]

They changed MK hours back to 10 but added the AK EMH

I'm trying to change mine for later in the evening during the new hours as well. Not available. I'm thinking they're not loaded yet. No way they could all be taken already

I did check some of the other rides and some have FP until 10:00 but not FOP

I'm so mad!!!!!!! I was happy for a SECOND and then they rechanged to 10 pm!! Ugh

 

[disneybree]

We want late nights at MK, they're the best

 

[mtemm]

No!!!! Why the tease????

So they changed it from 11 to 10? I have never know Disney to go back on a close time. Why are they doing this?

 

[mtemm]

I am guessing someone hit the wrong button. The question is was the 11pm wrong or the reversal back to 10? I'm still hopeful.

I see they added AK night EMH 10:00 to 12:00 every night for July and August !

I don't see every night in August. Looks like it stops Aug 19. Anyone see something different?


Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place. I just check disney world website park hours.

So frustrating... I was happy when I saw the 11pm close. Really rubbish they have put it back to 10pm again.

 

[SaraSpringsIsHome]

Seriously, this stinks! I was super excited about an extra MK hour while we were there! C'mon Disney!

 

[garanorymom]

I am so upset it was changed and then switched back. Somehow that is almost worse.

2am EMH are a thing of the past, unfortunately.

Sorry....I didn't mean 1 or 2 am......I meant 1 or 2 night time EMH. Do they offer those in August usually?

Not until 2am anymore, typically. (2am is nighttime.) MK used to regularly close at midnight in summer, & have EMH until 2am, but with the reduction of summer crowds has come shorter summer hours. Now MK closes at 10 or 11pm in summer, and has EMK until midnight or 1am.

The poster means one or two occurrences of nighttime EMH.....not EMH that go until 1 or 2 AM.

I see. Sorry for my misunderstanding.

The whole time we'll be in there (2nd and 3rd week of July) looks like Animal Kingdom has EMH from 10-midnight.

Yes ends August 19th. Sorry I was excited and didnt check all the way past the 19th

The more I think about this, the more annoyed I become. I didn't want to go in the summer but agreed with my teens only BECAUSE of the longer hours because I am going to positively MELT in the summer heat/sun. PLUS, I ponied up for a monorail resort to be close to MK. 10pm - seriously? At least 11 Disney!! Are the hotels empty? Mine isn't. It shows no rooms available for my dates except for concierge.

I know I'm going against the grain, but as I've said before, I don't really have any solid reason to truly "complain". Sure, it stinks...and it really is bad timing for us. We've done at least 6 or 7 prior trips in July and never even looked or cared what time they closed because our kids were really too young to stay out really late (we're not late night owls ourselves). So we never stayed past 10pm anyway. Now, they're 13, 9, 9 and would be capable of an 11pm closing...and of course this year they're going to close at 10pm. But I really can't complain about it. The park is still open 13 hours (it's 9am opening, right?) during the day, hard to complain about that.

With the 10pm close, we'll have the opportunity to close the park several times, and that's great. So while we're disappointed, really it's not that big of a deal. I have no idea why they're doing it, but my guess is still that the staffing they would have devoted to keeping MK open late is now being used to keep AK open late. Keeping both MK and AK open to 11pm or later every night would have been a much bigger expense and strain on their resources.

I'm still hoping the AK manager worked this weekend and was able to update the hours, while the MK manager took off this weekend and will update his/her hours tomorrow. Wishful thinking.....
