Does anyone have an idea when Disney is going to post the park hours for May? We are trying to plan our trip for the first week in May and so far the hours are not out. Tough to plan ADR's etc when you don't know when the parks are going to be open :shrug:

May's park hours *should* be out next week sometime.

Disney has reduced the ADR booking window to 90 days, and with it came a corresponding reduction in how far out they publish park hours.

Oh gosh I hope that is the case. I will be 90 days out on February 1. I am moving forward with my ADR's anyway. I just hope I won't have to change too many of them.

So you are saying that the park hours should be posted about 90 days out too? Geez, I was hoping to have an idea of the park hours before hand. It makes it a little easier to plan and then make the ADR's. :lookaroun:brick:

I just read that the May hours are posted. Good luck!

The May hours are still not posted. I received this e-mail today, after waiting for a response since December:

Dear XXXXXXX & XXXXXX,

Thank you for contacting the Walt Disney World Resort.

We can certainly appreciate your concern at this time but please know
that all parks, events and venues are still being scheduled at this
time. A release date/time frame for May 2009 operating hours has not
yet been announced.

We are sorry our response is not a more favorable one but appreciate
your understanding.

If you have questions or need further assistance, feel free to contact
us.

Please include your full name, E-Mail address, and reservation number if
applicable on all correspondence.

Sincerely,

Ronda Kendall

I expect the May hours to be out with this weekend's computer upgrade. I would expect late Sunday or early Monday. The last few changes have come on Sundays at 4 p.m. EST.

This has been on the boards quite a bit - it is frustrating but this is the "new" way it is going to be - at least for now. With ADR's not being taken until 90 days out, the hours aren't either. This means we can't plan our days to EMH yet or like you said, plan your ADR's. From the last CM I spoke to, this is not a "formal" announcement but this is the way it is and probably will be for some time. This, along with the new website issues - planning has been very challenging. The website has been going up and down for weeks now - and the my vacation area where you can plan your itinerary has been down. Also, they have not updated all the info on the new site so a lot of info is missing. I'll be happy in a month when I hit my 90 days! :sohappy: In the mean, I went am planning what I can, when I can b/c I love planning Disney vacations! :sohappy:

Well we are already 90 days out and can't plan our ADR's because the park hours are not out. I don't believe the ones on WDWinfo. I really thought that they would be out when we hit the 90 day window for ADR's. :shrug: We also really plan our days around the EMH so again can't plan our days or ADR's without the hours. I don't understand why they are not making them available. They have to have SOME idea of bookings for May.

RE: park hours

I am able to pull the May hours up on the Disney website for all four parks; however, yesterday they were 'there', then 'not there', now they are there again.:shrug:
