Nice. Anyone know what's up with the AK fall schedule? They don't have any activities on the "official" calendar yet past September 1st.

We're going in early August... seems hours across the board are shorter than the same period in 2016 (except for Hollywood Studios, but instead a late night EMH that was available in 2016 is not available in 2017)... is it likely that they will be extended as we get closer to that period or is what we see now pretty solidly what it will be in 3 months?

Just not scheduled yet.

@wdwmagic is that legit that AK has daily EMH through July 1? It looks that July 1 is the cut off for this schedule update.

Daily though July 4 for evening EMH in Pandora.

Would it be safe to assume that they haven't scheduled the last two weeks of August and that's why HEA is going dark then? Seems weird that they have it starting up again in September.

EMH should be daily for all resort guests.

A couple years ago, MK was open for 24 hours on Memorial Day. This year, it closes at 10PM. That's disappointing.

It is.

Were you there? It was awful. Absolutely awful.

No, I wasn't but I can believe that. I was there a week later when MK closed at midnight or 1AM every night with EMH until 2AM. So this is a ~15-21% reduction in hours from 2 years ago.

I'd assume it's because of the late nights over in AK and the staffing is needed over there. But I'd think they would benefit by drawing the crowds over 2 parks instead of 1.

It is.

For all parks on all days. Not this twice a week stuff.

We were there....
The crowd started to get huge in the early evening so we retreated to Epcot for the rest of the day.

Do not understand why MK closes at 10 PM in June-that is too early for the price charged for tickets. It would be a bit fairer for patrons if that was 11 PM. and could enjoy the evening cooling. Sorry just seems cheap to me to close so early.
