Frozen Ever After and Royal Summerhus to Now Open Summer 2016:
Well it appears as Frozen Ever After and the Royal Summerhus won't be opening in late Spring as originally thought. According WDWMagic and the Passholder Mickey Monitor (a publication for Annual Passholders) that was just released, the two new attractions coming to Epcot's Norway pavilion will now be opening this summer. This signifies that construction is taking a little bit longer than expected.
As is expected with construction and Disney, this could be just Disney playing it safe as now the opening window of the two new attractions is quite wide. This also could signify just the official opening in the Summer with soft openings much sooner with the original set date of opening during late Spring.
