who uses EMH

[Crow]

i have sometimes. but I also found Epcot evening extra hrs to b crowded and long waits. and I know there are recommendations to not go to a park w EMH. I may go to a morning one if i can b there right away for an hr or so, then go to a diff park.
what has been your experience.

[disneykid99]

We use EMH sometimes. We like to go in the morning and beat the heat then when it starts getting crowded head to the resort for a swim or hop to a different park - just as you said. It is hit or miss for us at night. We used them at AK for the first time on our last trip. It was fun to experience AK in the evening and take the KS. :mickey:

yea i might try DHS morning, then walk to Epcot.
havent really been at AK at night, i dont spend a lot of time there so it might b interesting to see

[MargaretMessler]

I always use EMH, sometimes the advantage is only minimal, but I always use them. And in my experience, different than the previous poster, EPCOT was wonderful for evening EMH. I went to another park earlier in the day, then to EPCOT later and we had a blast revisiting all the big attractions and also strolling World Showcase.

We use them in the morning when we are there! In fact, if I can, I plan our parks accordingly. We have small kids, so extra hours in the evening isn't possible for us.

Some of my best times were night time EMH. One night me and my kids, niece and nephew rode Splash mountain 13 mtimes in a row, the last 5 times we didn't even have to get off the ride, they just let us stay on. Animal Kingdom is a completely different park at night, if you have never been there at night, it is a must see. We also enjoy walking around Epcot at night.

We don't always use Morning EMH's but we usually hang around for evening EMH's. For some reason, the EMH's feel more relaxed to us. I highly recommmend EMH's at AK... visit the Yetti before he is too crowded and walk around the park at night when it is a little cooler. :thumbsup:

Our family has a hard time getting up in the morning. Since we are from the west coast and it is 3 hours behind Orlando we feel if we are up by 9 we are happy. The evening EMH are great for us. We could not get to those morning EMH. We do take a rest break during the day so we can stay up until 12 am (or later). This May when we went the crowds were small during night EMH. It was great!

Evening EMHs in the Magic Kingdom are my favorite. I love riding Big Thunder Mountain or Space Mountain at 3:00am in the morning :coaster:

90% of the time we use the EMH in the morning, before rope drop, head back to the resort for a 2-4 hour break (around 1 or 2'ish), then head to the park with the night-time EMH.

You can get a lot done in the morning before it gets crowded, especially utilizing fastpasses, then the wait times at night hours usually open up about an hour or two before final close.

We often use the morning EMH's. We like to go in and get one or two of the big rides checked off our list before the wait times get too long and FP's are gone. On our next trip, we're going to hit the MK EMH mainly so we can see the new Fantasyland expansion before it gets too busy.

We haven't done much of the night EMH, but I'd like to do more when we get a chance. I've found that after about an hour into them, the crowds really die down and many of the rides are walk-ons. There's something extra special to the parks at night too.

Morning EMHs at MK are great but I can never drag myself out of bed to go because we stay out too late at night. Evening EMHs have become more of a drag than fun because they are often so crowded - it really just depends.

[AgentC]

To get stuff done, I like to do morning EMH and then hop to another park for the remainder of the day around 12-1 pm.

Evening just depends. I find it doesn't usually clear out into late into the EMH, but it can still be fun depending on what you want to accomplish. I like having the extra time to wander around the World Showcase at Epcot and I miss the night EMH at Animal Kingdom. I love that park at night.

[joonyer]

We like and use both EMH times, but usually not on the same day. Early EMH's are great for short lines and meeting lots of characters with little waiting. Get there at park opening though.
We also love the evening EMH times, because we love the parks after dark, crowded or not. With all the special lighting, the parks seem even more magical at night.

[Tinkerbella16]

We love using both Morning and Evening EMH, but mostly evenings.. especially at MK & Epcot in the evenings. I never had problems at all with long lines during evening EMH at those parks, since its only available to WDW resort guests so all others are gone and thats also a pretty amount of people. :mickey:

Evening EMHs in the Magic Kingdom are my favorite. I love riding Big Thunder Mountain or Space Mountain at 3:00am in the morning :coaster:

Same here. In fact, I've never been to any of the parks for the morning Magic Hours (I like to sleep in on vacation). But I've frequently closed the Magic Kingdom with Evening Magic Hours. Enjoyed walking back to the buses while watching the Cinderella Castle's "Good Night Kiss."

[dizneydeb22]

We usually hit the MK early EMH, then take a break and go back to another park in the afternoon.

We ALWAYs hit the late hours at EPCOT. It is so beautiful!

Never been to AK in the evening. Hope to get to try it soon!

[Crow]

just arrived today so i will see which ones i use this wk and report on it

[CanadaLovesDisney]

We always use the nightime ones except at hollywood studios because its the same line at toy store etc. during regular hours. The only time we use the morning extra hours is at the water parks!

[DNS]

We use the evening hours for each park at least once each trip. Although now AK does not have evening hours. Or at least they did not the last time we were there.

I will be so sad if they did away with AK evening hours, I loved that when I was last down there. We were on and off rides like crazy, probably rode EE ten times in a row without having to wait a minute. Also spent considerable time on KRR. And I didn't do it, so I don't even know if it was offered, but I'm thinking an early evening Safari would bring lots of animal activity.

[texas211]

We usually avoid those parks especially if its morning emh. Just too busy.

[Georgesgirl1]

We try to use EHM nights at Epcot and MK. Mornings are too early for us. Our boys are sleepers, and you never wake a sleeping baby!

[mommy2maddi]

We went in August in 2010 and evening EMH were absolutely essential! We aren't huge into waking up early so rarely used the morning EMH. At night the lines were so much better for a lot of rides at MK so we were thankful for them. Other times of year they aren't quite as essential. :mickey:
