Heads Up - May Park Hours Updated!

[GADisneyDad14]

FYI, looks like May park hours have been updated. Time to re-check plans if you have May dates!

Also FYI, when park hours get extended, new FastPass supply typically gets added in over the next 1-3(ish) days.

Holy Cow, Saturday Magic Kingdom open until midnight! Woot! Changing plans now....

Those are good hours! We are going within first two weeks of May 2020 and if it's similar at all to these hours I will be pleased.

Darn... my PPO breakfast at BOG is not PPO anymore Lol! MK is opening at 8am-11pm!

I can't stand it when they do this. My PPO is not one any longer either and I can't modify it. Is CRT not modifiable. I'm going to lose money on the foreign exchange rate if I have to cancel and rebook. I really hate how complicated WDW has become. I planned less for 3 wks in Europe.

DAH on May 2 has changed to 1am. If we can make it that long, waits should be next to nothing! Nice hours.

Yep I always tell people there isn't a point to booking a "PPO" in MK.

Sat are the only days in May that people lost MK PPOs and you could anticipate that by looking at last year's hours. No guarantees of course but for most people May is a good time to try for a PPO.

Happy to see that my Tues in MK is now open until 10.

It's not just hours. It's because they open Main St to everyone at 8am. Unless you have BOG, which is ridiculously overpriced, there isn't much "advantage."

You should always have in the back of your mind that opening hours usually change and ppo's are not a sure thing. We take a gamble and if it works, great. But it's nothing we ever count on. On the bright side, you can cancel, save the money and you have more park hours!

Yup! That’s the plan I kept telling my husband... this is not the final plan and he thought I was ridiculous. So now I have extended hours in the MK and the added benefit of an “I told you so!” Lol

Ugh!!! I was secretly hoping early June would be too. Back to waiting

What happens to EMM when the park hours are moved up?

They don’t move opening time up on EMM days.

You'll see June's updated hours on May 11th. That should be the second Friday.

 

[Dracarys]

June 1st hours updated to 8am opening and 12am close, so my PPO breakfast is no more. Oh well, this is our relaxing day at the park. We haven’t seen the opening show yet. Do they do it on mornings that open earlier? Does it start promptly at opening or 5 min before?

Do they always update hours on the second Friday?

I believe it was @GADisneyDad14 that mentioned this, but I believe so, yes.
