While we’re trying to pretend like yesterday’s ticket price increases never happened, today we have MUCH more pleasant news to share with you!
Disney’s Animal Kingdom has just extended its park hours again! Find out if it’s when you’ll be there below!
Disney World is getting ready for the many folks who will be spending their spring break with the Mouse by extending its hours! Yesterday, we saw Magic Kingdom extend its hours for select dates in April and today the calendar on Disney World’s website is showing Animal Kingdom is now scheduled to close at 9 PM (originally 8 PM) on March 14th, and 16th-18th!
Animal Kingdom is also closing at 9 PM (originally 8 PM) from March 21st – 23rd and March 28th! That means 12 hours of all the trips on Flight of Passage that you can HANDLE — or at least, you can handle waiting in line for!
We’ll keep you posted if we spot any additional updates to Animal Kingdom’s posted hours as well as the rest of Disney World’s other three theme parks, so stay tuned!
