... Morning and evening Extra Magic Hours were previously only available to guests at Walt Disney World-operated hotels, but privileges were extended to seven Disney Springs-area resorts earlier this year. While those resorts and Disney’s own hotels offer 60-day FastPass+ booking windows, at this time, Four Seasons Resort Orlando at Walt Disney World Resort still offers 30-day booking, but it’s still worth a stay.

... The hotel, which is located near Disney’s Magic Kingdom, also boasts a planning desk staffed by Disney’s own employees — a perk no other external hotel offers — as well as a highly-regarded character breakfast on select mornings and unparalleled views of surrounding theme park fireworks from its rooftop steakhouse restaurant Capa.

Thanks Fig for the update!

BOO to Disney for adding more non Disney resorts to get these EMH/FP perks.

While I question the expansion to some non-Disney owned hotels, I like that they have added the Four Seasons. This will upset some people on here, but the service level at the Four Seasons surpasses any Disney deluxe hotel, including the Grand Floridian.

Sorry, other than SoG I find the whole thing ridiculous. What exactly are they touting as perks for staying onsite anymore? Other than DME you're paying more to get the same thing others are getting for free. If we weren't DVC I'm not so sure we'd be paying the onsite premium.

If they add the Gaylord or Waldorf, that is where I'll be. More for your buck.

It would be fantastic if they extended it to the Waldorf. I would probably never stay anywhere else again.
