We're counting on it for this year's trip! We've done MK on that date twice before and it opened for EMH at 7 AM and closed at 3 AM. If they don't do quite as long, surely it will still be extended beyond 9-12.Does anyone think they will have extra magic morning hours for the magic kingdom on December 30rh ??
Right now it’s just a normal 9 am opening time
It's so busy they extended MK hours until 11pm tonight. Proof that they can change things the day of!
Don't know if this will help you feel any better, but our trip is on-site for a week and we didn't get SDD 'til our last day even with being able to make FP at 60+ I too was shocked at how unavailable FPs were - we had never had a problem 60+ days out before except maybe when 7DMT was new and again for FoP but we were still able to get them earlier than the end of our trip. We had a harder time getting FoP this trip than we did our last trip. I'm worried about how crowded this indicates WDW will be after RotR opens!We'll be there 12/7 - 11. Unable to get SDD or FOP FP due to staying off site and everything is gone gone gone by 30 days out. We will make it work but I'll keep an eye out in case things open up. We're a party of 5 and I tried looking for 1 FP at a time and still nothing. Couldn't even get BTMRR on our first day! Shocked by that one. I didn't expect to get 7DMT at 30 days but there was plenty of availability for Space... so thought BTMRR would be available as well... I'll be watching this thread and checking the app.
Good. Barnstormer 60 mins at 6:15pm. I can only imagine....

Wondering if they will change any other days that week. We are in Disney 11/27-12/1 and at MK on Thanksgiving Day and it is still listed as 9am.Just got an email from TP. MK is opening at 8am on 11/24.

Remember last year - for the first time in forever (or, a really long time) - they didn’t do 8am MK openings all Thanksgiving week. Seems more of the same this year, unless something changes.
The puzzle fits together just as Disney anticipates. Unmanageable crowds push people to "pay" for extras.Yes I looked at that and was fully prepared to shell out money for EMM because of it. I'm so puzzled.

I was thinking more of my own travel week (12/16) where paid after and before hours have already been added in AK and MK, and more general patterns where regular hours have been shortened and paid events added. I am still hoping for extended non paid hours for mid Dec.But they didn't add EMM to the calendar, so the point is moot.
