Do you think Disney will open Magic Kingdom an hour early for Spring Break 2016 due to crowds? Right now times are 9am-midnight, but I’ve seen 8 am opens in the past and wondered if it was safe bet?
FYI on capacity: we’re off-site and at 30 days out, 12:01 there were no Fastpass+ for Anna & Elsa and 7 Dwarves had first opening at 5:40 pm.
Thanks! Nicka
What date are you going?
I don’t know how accurate this is, but try this site. Set it to you date and park, then click on the attraction. It’ll bring up a calendar which lists availabilities. I noticed that they’re reporting a couple of times for A&E on March 10 and 18, but only for two. Don’t know if that helps you.

I went last year at Easter and MK opened at 7 AM every day which was great. 8AM opening with EMH. I expect the same this year
Thank you! Will try.
Wow, 7 am? Were you there at rope drop?
I’m not sure I can mobilize my group of 7 to get up early enough, but we plan to get to the gates at 7:30. Do the crowds trickle in more with that early of an open, or are you already “late” at 7:30 then?
Thanks, Nicka
We were there for Easter last year too, and were the first on the boat at 6:30 am. It was awesome- dark- and not crowded at all. We stayed until after the noon Festival of Fantasy parade and returned around 5 and stayed until 12:30am. Awesome day! It was fairly light crowds until 10 am, then the post church peeps started pouring in.
It gives you a big advantage. Crowds are manageable until 10 or 11, then it gets crazy by 12. By then we’re getting ready to go back to pool.
