We got to the Magic Kingdom today for EMH today only to find that Disney had changed the EMH for MK/AK for this weekend only sometime last week. WTH are they thinking????? They should not change the EMH hours after the 60 day FP+ mark. It is not like you can change your FOP or Mine Train FP if they change the EMH. Definitely Grumpy today!

CM said something about them being changed due to filming. He’s the one that said they changed last week. Could have been earlier but definitely since we checked to set our FP+

No, it’s just that with the rigidity created by FP+ your plans get etched in for AK and MK at the 60 day mark. We did not lose our FP+ and even if we had caught the change there would not have been a lot we could have done about it as we could not have moved our FOP or SDMT FP. We just lost the 2 EMH mornings and that is irritating. Fortunately the crowds are less than last week so we are doing ok.

I would still let a Castmember know what happened. Just ask about when the change was made and express your disappointment in the most polite way. You might still get some FPs out of it :)

Did they change the day of the EMH, or just the hours?

Changing the actual hours for busy periods is fairly common. For instance the Christmas week, when they move the MK times from 9am to 8am, with 7am EMH every day. And this can happen just days out, or even day of (for the evening).

Changing the actual days that a particular park has EMH, especially so close, is different, and I can see why you'd be annoyed.

They changed the EMH parks for Fri/Sat. It was Fri MK and Sat AK. It changed to Fri AK and Sat MK, for this weekend only. Yeah, if it had been earlier in the trip or had gone the other way, I’d made a fuss with Guest Relations to get a few FP. If it had gone the other way we’d been in trouble as our touring plans have us hitting Peter Pan right at Park opening. Missing and getting in an hour late means a 60-70 min wait.

Was this the weekend when one of the After Hours events was taking place on Friday? However they would have known that a while back so no reason not to have posted it.

I agree, very annoying. Glad it was OK for you overall. :)
