Which will result in loosing an extra hour at the park each day. This comes also during a time when Phantom Manor will be closed for refurbishment. Now I can appreciate that refurbishments do happen and that park hours are subject to change. But if I had known this schedule ahead of time I wouldn't have bothered to go. But Disneyland Paris is so slow and poor at updating its site that I have only found out about park hours and ride closures now. When its to late to cancel. Thanks yet again DLP for cutting back on the Guests experience.

It means if you want low crowds or cheaper rates, you have to make sacrifices. This is unfair IMHO. Refurbs on attractions or restaurants fair enough. Slightly reduced hours (say 8pm) fine. But when you add this, plus I bet some attractions like a FL dark ride, the Labrynth and the Nautilus won't open until after rope drop, it annoys me. Yes, WDW management sucks, and most of them then get shipped to Europe, where sadly the majority of the guests don't really know any better because they compare it to local parks. Yes, I can understand an early close in Jan. because it is too cold to be out after dark, but in September, that is poor show.
