    We are going with a 6 day park pass 1/24-1/30 and are so excited! I'm confused about the overall crowd level estimates being green (low) but individual sites showing some parks red during that time. Should I really avoid the red parks based on these?

    Hi Tracy!

    Thank you for sending in your question to the Walt Disney World Moms Panel.

    Historically, at that time of year the crowds in Walt Disney World are typically low to medium.  I wouldn't worry about the crowds when planning your daily itinerary.  If you want a second opinion, I recommend visiting the independent website TouringPlans.com.  They are famous in the Disney fan community for producing a crowd calendar based on a lot of math and years of data collection.  They will recommend parks to avoid on any given day, but because the crowd levels are so low during your time frame, you really don't have to worry about it!  In other words, if you went to a park that should be avoided on a certain day during your trip, you might have to wait a couple of more minutes in line per attraction!

    I hope this helps!  Please write back with more questions!
