The Magic Kingdom’s Early Morning Magic experience is changing. Beginning in December 2018, the Early Morning Magic tickets will include more attractions, but they will also cost guests more money.
Early Morning Magic tickets give guests an opportunity to go on Fantasyland attractions before the park is open to normal guests. The tickets also include a breakfast buffet.
Below is a comparison of the new offering versus the old offering.

While the menus are similar, it’s worth noting the new selection apparently won’t include French Toast or the Vegetable Frittata.
How will this change the experience?
For a $10 per person increase, you’ll be able to experience twice as many Fantasyland attractions. However, it’s very likely that more tickets for this event will be sold now that more attractions will be open and breakfast will be served in a larger location.
Previously, guests reported that the Early Morning Magic tickets were a good value due to the ability to ride some of their favorite rides without a wait before picking up breakfast. The smart strategy was to hit the rides as many times as possible before the park opened at 9am, and then hitting breakfast until the 10am window closed.
We’ll have to wait and see how these changes alter the experience.
