Is April 7th the opening date for EE?

We are planning a day trip for my Nephew's birthday on April 1st. We plan on park hopping between EPCOT & MGM. But my Nephew wants to include AK if EE is open. Does anyone know if it wil be open to the public on April 1st? If not we really don't want to add AK into our already busy schedule.

It basically is open to the public now and has been for a few weeks.EE still will be in a soft opening at the time and subject to close at any time, however all the rides in the park are subject to close at any time.

Official Grand Opening is April 7. Disney has been kind enough to envite me to the grand opening, so I will be there on April 7. I will have pictures and as much information for all of you later that day. It was open last week, several people in my family were able to ride it.

Whoa. I wonder when that happened. Last I knew it was the first. Hm.

EE is officially on the 24-hour-a-day WDW television ad that runs in the off-property hotels. It is overtly being advertised as open for all to ride... So I have to think that means it is un-officially open everyday to everyone.

We just got back yesterday and a CM told me for all intents and purposes it's permanently open now. It was when we were there. We rode it 3 times. Totally awesome!!

Does that mean that Disney is aware of our little operation here?
