Does any one have any clue when they plan to post the park hours for September? We are coming up on our 90 day + 10 mark to make our ADR'S. We usually make our ADR'S after we see the park hours and plan our trip that way.

This 90 day stuff is killing me!:ack:

:ditto: It makes me so nervous to not know what our itinerary is going to be for our September trip! I have to make my ADRs in less than a week and I'd like to have enough time before then to really plan out which days to go to which restaurants!!!

The hours for August came out on May 5th so it should be in the next few days. Luckily they were out before I had to call on May 10th.

If you go to the WDW site the boxes for the Sept. calendar are there, but no hours are listed. I am checking frequently. I have called several times this week as well to book a Fantasmic dining for Sept 1 and I can't do it until the hours are available. They said on the phone any day now, but no later the the 10th of this month. My trip spans Aug and Sept so now I am stuck waiting to plan the rest of the week. Maybe today will be the day :yes:

Maybe it's just me, but it seems Disney is creating a lot of extra work for themselves and resentment in it's guests by their slow posting of park hours and shows. Many of us are having to make ADR's based upon guesses as to hours and shows, and if those are wrong we have to call back again and again to make changes. Instead of CM's just handling ADR's once, they are having to do it 2,3, 4 times, or more.

While I thought the change from 180 days to 90 days was a good move, it ONLY works if park hours are out at least 3 1/2 to 4 months in advance, instead of the current less than 3 months. :mad:

Maybe, just maybe, they'll finally come out today.

Grain of salt perhaps, but a member of another Disney board posted these and said they came from the Canadian TA site. They seem reasonable to me.

How are you able to book at 100 days out?

If you are staying at a disney resort you can call at your 90 day mark and make all of your reservations for up to 10 days. It can be a real advantage when something like free dining is going on and adr's are in high demand.

Scoot241 I found the same info as you also. Thanks for the info. :thumbsup:What I was told by a travel agent is that they get the park hours releasted to the before the general public. I don't know how fair that is to the returning people who book directly tbrought Disney. I guess were all stuck waiting.:mad:

Those hours seem on par to what they should be. I just find it odd that both MK & DHS won't be having Spectromagic & Fantasmic on EMH evenings.

OK not, to sounds dumb here, but which Canadian TA site and is it reliable?

From what I understand, the Disney Canadian TA site. Later, an American TA posted that it was also on the Disney American TA site.

The water parks hours are posted. Why not post the other parks? I don't get it.:mad:

Looks like Disney posted September Hours. I was just on site and if yuo browse to parks and calendar they do not show septmeber however there is another calendar page where they do show without error.

http://disneyworld.disney.go.com/wdwi/en_GB/calendar/parkhours/calendarHome?id=MKCalendarParkHoursMonthlyViewPage &date=20090901 (http://disneyworld.disney.go.com/wdwi/en_GB/calendar/parkhours/calendarHome?id=MKCalendarParkHoursMonthlyViewPage &date=20090901)

if you go to this Disney page and use drop down to change parks it works perfectly. Not sure the previous posters hours were correct as i didnt want to check between the two.

Looks like the site is getting hammered, may have to refresh a couple times, explains error.

On the US site, they are only listing Water Park hours for September at this time. Hopefully, within the next day or two they will all be posted.

I tried the link as well and there is still nothing for September!:mad:

I know a previous poster listed the park our's from a Canadian t/a and they do look good to go! I just am having a hard time making decisions for my adr's without it being officially posted on WDW website!:confused::confused:

http://disneyworld.disney.go.com/wdwi/en_GB/calendar/parkhours/calendarHome?id=MKCalendarParkHoursMonthlyViewPage&date=20090901 I tried this link and it worked. Another poster put link up and I went to it and did not work. But if you go to bottom of page on left hand side click on Canada from drop down window you can view September hours!:secret:

I just went back thru same link and it won't bring it back up!!!:mad: They are KILLING ME:mad:
