Hey David!
Thank you so much for stopping by planDisney! It means a lot that Guests trust us to help with their trips to Walt Disney World Resort. We truly enjoy helping to make your vacation practically perfect in every way.
I firmly believe that any day is a good day at Walt Disney World, even if it rains, there's always something magical around every corner! Let me share some personal tips to help you make the most of your visit. I like to save
Magic Kingdom Park for the middle to end of the week, since many Guests prefer to start their trip there. While this isn't guaranteed, it's always worked well for me.
EPCOT tends to be busier on weekends because it’s a favorite spot for locals (myself included!) to grab a drink and stroll through the World Showcase. Try to avoid holidays, as crowds are heavier when schools and offices are closed. Keeping an eye on the local Florida school calendar can also help you plan for lighter crowds.
If you need to travel during the summer or on a holiday, don't worry, there are plenty of tools to make your trip smoother! Consider using
Lightning Lanes, which let you skip regular lines. Staying at a Disney Resort hotel gives you
Early Theme Park Entry, so you can enter 30 minutes before the general public, which is great for must-do attractions or taking photos with fewer people. I've visited during holiday weekends and, by using these tools, I've thoroughly enjoyed myself. June trips have become a family tradition.
As a
Guest staying on-site, you'll be able to book Lightning Lanes for your entire day up to 7 days before your arrival, helping secure those hard-to-get rides. I also recommend exploring the
My Disney Experience app before your trip. There's so much you can do, from navigating the parks to ordering food in advance. It's truly a game-changer!
David, I hope this information is helpful and, most importantly, I wish you a great time on your vacation! Please come back and see me anytime; I'll be more than happy to help you plan the perfect trip.
Your personal planning companion,
Michelle
