    How busy is it at Disney World over Columbus Day weekend? What is the weather normally like that weekend?

    I have a little bit of bad news and a little bit of good, Michelle.  Let's get the icky news out of the way first.  That is, Columbus Day does drive Disney crowds up a bit.  Anytime kids are out of school you can expect to see an upward shift in crowd levels.  It shouldn't be unbearable, but you would do best to be prepared for crowds.  The good news, though, is that the weather that time of year is quite nice.  Expect warm days and cool evenings with fewer showers than Orlando experiences in summer months.  Enjoy your trip!

Meet the Panelist: Darcie, Alabama

Given your inclination to plan a magical trip, I can already tell we have a lot in common. I'm Darcie, and my friends would be the first to tell you that Disney trip planning (especially dining!) is my love language. Of course, the vacations my family enjoys today look much different than they did when our kids were little, but while some of our favorite activities have evolved, Disney destinations still top our travel wish lists. Let's work together to plan a downright dreamy vacation for your family! Learn More About Darcie
