I guess I didn't realize Splash wasn't on the list.

Nope, me neither.

Did I miss something, are there only certain things operating during EMH?

Correct. You can see the list at the bottom of http://www.wdwmagic.com/other/extra-magic-hours.htm

It has always been this way, although the line-up changes from time to time.

Yeah in a pub quiz, I reckon most people would think its open. But it isn't, normally anyway.

 

[RobidaFlats]

Yeah in a pub quiz

Where? When?

 

[Tootsie]

Oh well it won't matter anyway, we are there when it's close for refurb

 

[CaptainAmerica]

No info, but I'd expect it to float on and off the list seasonally.

Probably since Big Thunder is currently down, I would guess.

YAY! People can be very cold at 12:AM

About time they added it. Used to frustrate me that it was never open during EMH. They would always have a cast member standing near the queue entrance telling people it was closed. As one of the major attractions in MK, it should always be open during EMH.

It's Florida, they will be fine! Splash is beautiful at night! Just hope it's still well maintained.

I thought it was always open during EMH...silly me! I've always gone on it late at night when I'm at Disney and we often are the only people on it!

Technically almost all of the attractions except for Splash were open for EMH. I asked a cast member why and they said it was because Splash needed to close early each night for brief maintenance check ups because it was a flume ride. I don't know why they changed their mind

This.

I'd assume since BTM is down and they needed another mountain to be open to fill the gap for EMH

That's probably the most likely scenario. I wouldn't be surprised if it gets taken off the list once BTMR goes back up.

Last trip my younger cousins couldn't understand why splash and other rides weren't open under emh. Nice to see it added even if it's just temporary.

It's because of maintenance that it's not open for EMH usually. It takes a lot to keep it going. Typical day is 51 boats running continuously. If they have to drain the flume (usually down every other night), 1 hr down and another 1 hr back up.
