April 2008 park hours?

[Beckybalz]

When will the April 2008 park hours come out? I am so use to planning way ahead for WDW trips!

Maybe as soon as December. Maybe as late as February or March.

Can anyone tell me what the typical April hours might be?

Disneyland has this annoying habit of having different hours almost every day during the seasons of mid-high attendance. Even right now, if you look at the calendar for October, there are about 4-5 different operating schedules in place and few consecutive days have the same hours.

With that in mind, you can at LEAST count on the following in April:

WEEKDAYS:
DL 10am-8pm
DCA 10am-6pm

WEEKENDS
DL 8am-12am
DCA 10am-8pm

Typically, when they increase hours, DL will get more hours. DCA typically never stays open past 10pm at the LATEST, but most often is closed between 6-8pm.

DL typically stays open until at least 8pm and the closing hour varies between that and midnight.

As a general rule, DCA never opens prior to 9am.

Spring break schedules will affect park operating hours, but you STILL have to be vigilant while you are there and double check the next day's hours. Don't rely on the website. We were there last week and DL opened a full hour early on a weekday and we showed up at what we thought was opening only to find that the park had been open since 8am...(posted time was 9am online)
