Change in February Park Hours?

[Betsyboo]

Just noticed that the Disney site has posted vastly different park hours for 2/23 - 3/1. Previously MK closed at 8pm each night (except for EMH days). It's now showing 10. This throws off my dining plans etc. Any one know why they would change the hours? I'm not complaining about extra park time I just may need to adjust some ADRs.

Thanks.

It doesnt really matter when Wishes are schedule or how early or late your reservation is for, your table was assigned by how in advance you booked and you'll be let in Tomorrowland Terrace around 1 1/2 hour before the fireworks begin.

Fantasmic! packages seats will always be for the first show of the night, be it at 6pm or 7pm. The second show is first come, first served.

Any insight into why the change in MK closing times? It went from 8pm to 10pm and later for the week I am going (2/6-2/13). Expecting higher crowds? Soft openings of mine train???

they'd extend park hours if they expect larger crowds.

Not small crowds. You look much better when you under promise and then over deliver. Schedule earlier closing times, and then if good crowds do surface, change them to close later, and they can say "Hey look, we are such nice guys we are going to stay open later". But scheduling later closing times, and then having bad bookings means that if they want to close earlier instead of keeping an empty park open, they look like schmucks.
