Magic Kingdom at closing on a Christmas Party night

[auntlynne]

Out of curiosity, have you considered visiting a park that doesn’t close early that day to get more hours from your ticket?

Bottom line, Disney's Terms & Conditions back them up on just about every decision they make before, during and after in regards to tickets, park operations, resorts, services etc. Folks can argue what Disney usually does, what they want from Disney and more but bottom line we accept their terms. If Disney closes a ride early, they can.

Except as is often the case, planDisney is not always accurate. Two same questions with two completely different answers both asked the 2023 season.

Your photo about dining is incorrect. Other than the designated party restaurants most are open to day guests prior to 7 pm. They accept reservations until 6:50 pm for day guests. I just pulled up Liberty Tree Tavern and it has an ADR day guests still available at 6:50 pm. Of course those guests are very likely to be escorted out of the party when they are done eating because it will be after the party starts.

Which none of that matters since (as you clearly stated when starting this whole conversation about my ‘bad policy’ comment specifically regarding the inconsistency around the closure of some MK ride lines around 5:30p on party days with 6pm closing)… nothing is guaranteed. We all know PlanDisney is not. Rides are not. Operations are not.

If I am looking for factual Disney information (i.e. what are the MK hours on July 12?), I would start with the official Disney website. Any other place online you are getting unofficial opinions from people who don't actually work for Disney. You will find some sites/individuals provide more accurate/current information than others.
