Would it be wise to avoid parks with EMH if staying offsite?

[ALK$Disney]

We are staying at AKL for the first week of November, and moving offsite to our timeshare. We have some park days while we are offsite. One of those parks is AK, and on that day it has EMH. I know with Pandora, its going to be a madhouse, should we switch AK to a day that it does not have an EMH?

Thanks.

YES. A million times yes. AK is going to be CRAZY all year, especially on EMH because everyone will try to get a leg up in Pandora. I'd avoid it like the plague if off site.

Absolutely!!!! Do it when you have extra magic hours

My view of EMH is that I love to do the park the day AFTER it had EMH. This is especially useful if you are offsite and can't take advantage of EMH.

My theory.... The park gets crowded when there is EMH, particularly when it's morning EMH. Most people don't typically do the same park 2 days in a row, so Avoid the park the day of Morning EMH (i.e. CROWDED day) and go the NEXT day (ideally less crowded), unless of course they have EMH 2 days in a row.

I think this is a bigger advantage when they have the MORNING EMH as opposed to the Evening ones.

I think this is a bigger advantage when they have the MORNING EMH as opposed to the Evening ones.

The morning after an EMH evening, though, it's pretty sweet. I think by later in the day the crowds catch up, though.

We always stay offsite, and we avoid going to parks when they have morning EMH.

We've been when they have evening EMH only and the parks don't seem to be as busy in the mornings.
