Extra Magic Hour
- Thread starter 007mickey
- Start date
That was a little puzzling to me...EMH (any park early entry, any day) is for resort hotel guests but the MM is for folks that bought 3+ park hopper tickets but are staying off-site. Have they not done a EMH for resort guests in the past? We will only be there for 3 days next summer and were planning to stay on-site. As long as they don't remove the EMH, this will be a nice perk for us with the limited amount of time we are visiting!
Oh, I did not see it was ending. As a matter of fact the "Disney Parks Blog" that announed the EMH (back on May 25th) even made a point to say "This will be an ongoing offering, with no end date planned at this time." I guess they planned an end date...that stinks.

I don't doubt the extra hour perk will be around next year as well.

They have 3 different early morning entrance programs right now.
1) AP holders can register to get early entrance certain days
2) DLR hotel guests can get early entrance each days
3) 3 day+ park hoppers can get early entrance certain days
You can see details here -> http://disneyland.disney.go.com/calendar/early-admission/ But some of those dates seem to be in place only for the extra crowds due to Carsland, so will most likely change prior to next year.

I think its the dailiness of it. It had been just certain mornings, but a few weeks back they changed it to each morning.
So they had done EMH (differnt than MM) on select mornings prior to June 18th. But most likely the change to everyday EMH was implemented due to Carsland? Man I hope it doesn't end, I would like to think they will leave some sort of early entry perk for resort guests.

It still is a perk for resort guests. Not everyone can access every morning. The MM still has just certain mornings, 3 day+ parkhoppers have certain mornings, and AP's also have certain days they need to register for. Some of those will overlap with the resort guest early entry since that is the only one that is each day.

Read the post below - it answers all you need. There is no 'EMH' at DLR as it is known by WDW people. It has specific early admission programs for specific criteria.

Wut wut???
The purpose of the AP early entry program was to help diffuse the huge demand for the new BVS/Carsland project. After the new-ness wears off for the AP population.. it's not as necessary as waits become more tolerable.

I believe the posting is in reference to each park being open each day an hour early for resort guests. Normal practice is only certain parks on certain days for resort guests. So as of now, they would seem to be planning to switch back to just certain parks on certain days after the summer rush is over.
I'm completely confused, no EMH?

I thought the three programs listed by dreamfinder were: AP, EMH (DLR hotel guests) and MM (3+ park hopper). EMH sounds like it will be reduced to certain days after Sept 30th.

As I said 'There is no 'EMH' at DLR as it is known by WDW people'
In fact, I don't recall DL using the EMH terminology in the past - they might have changed this year when they expanded the programs around the new DCA opening. They always referred to it as 'Magic Mornings' or 'Early Entry'. Adding to the confusion, Grand Californian guests had special access to DCA too.
If you ignore the terminology and just look at what matters.. you'll find the quoted post by dreamfinder lists all the current offerings.
I'm with ya' now, it was a little confusing with all the terminology, who's eligible, as well as the summer changes. Just trying to get familiar with all things DL before next year's trip. Thanks for the help.

Don't stress yourself out with Disneyland. There's really no need to, just enjoy the parks and your time.
