    We are having an extremely difficult time choosing a week for our 2010 WDW vacation. We're working with the school calendar. Considering crowds and weather which do you think is better: 2/13-2/20 or 3/27-4/2 or early July? We'd be driving from NY. THANK

    Kim:

    Holidays tend to bring the crowds to Disney because, like you, schools are typically out around those times.

    But a process of elimination may help....

    First, your March/April dates are the week between Palm Sunday and Easter next year, quite possibly the second busiest week of the year only to Christmas.  Although the weather is just lovely, the crowds aren't.

    Next, the days preceeding the Independence Day holiday are crowded PLUS the weather is miserable.  Add a dash of afternoon showers and you have a recipe for one hot and steamy vacation.

    So that leaves us with your February dates that happen to coincide with the President's Day holiday.  The weather in February couldn't be more pleasant and the crowds are thick, but certainly not like Spring Break.  DING! DING! We have a winner! 

    If can help you answer anything else about where to stay or eat now that you've got your dates, just contact me through my bio page!

    Wishing y'all a magical vacation!

My family of 6 appreciates Disney's value! Although Ft. Wilderness is our second home, we've enjoyed the resorts for business, reunions and romantic getaways. For me, Disney also means dining: last count, I'd eaten at 55 restaurants around the World! Learn More About Whitney
