So, just EMH?
Interesting.
I just wonder if they are going to strt phasing out EMH -- increasing that perk to non-resort hotels, doesn't seem to make sense (as it makes those hours more crowded). So maybe, during the last "down" year until SWGE, they offer this out to good neighbor hotels to pull in crowds, and then just phase it out. I mean it already has been noticed they have decreased them over the years.
I mean it has to be pretty costly to run the park early/later and they already KNOW they can monetize this sort of thing with the Early Morning Magic at MK.
They'll ditch EMH, extend Early Morning Magic to every park and have a "special" paid event for those who are willing to pay for less crowded access to the parks. With SWGE coming, I can see people lining up for that ability, no matter WHAT the cost.
Maybe they just discovered that people get Disney hotels for the other perks. I know EMH really doesn't factor into my decision to stay onsite. The cost, transportation, magic bands and 60 days FP are the primary factors.
