We are in a similar boat.... Trip planned for 9/3-/12 , not Star Wars fans but we usually are RD type of people.We have been during Christmas time where I think MK opened at 7am and we have done three 24 hour days ( 2 at MK and one at DL). The extended morning hours helped relieve some of the Star Wars opening stressors that I was feeling. I also wanted us to have more down/pool time this trip ( since we are at the parks for 10 days as well as during the heat and humidity ). With the getting up earlier, it gives us more opportunity and almost necessity for these afternoon breaks. Currently , we plan to have two 6 am HS days and one day with no morning plans ( just brunch and MNSSHP) but it is still tempting me to alter some plans. We also have some early evenings throughout our trip so that we dont get too exhausted and cranky. I am considering doing the After hours at MK because the peace from the potential crowds..... only problem is that the only day that would be possible is the 3rd day of our trip. Figured if it was later, we could add on if we felt the need but that would lead to a whole bunch of last minute ADR and park planning juggling.... It will be interesting to see how it pans out. We plan to avoid HS on the weekend so hopefully the crowds wont be quite as bad.
