Creator's Key Takeaways

It is going to be the beginning to midepptember. Um actually most of the way through September until we're creeping into October.

Labor Day is probably the only holiday here at Disney World that is not massively overcrowded.

I think my favorite is going to be that early May period, you know, the first two weeks of May.

The busiest week out of the year by far is the week between Christmas and New Year's.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Check for marathon weekends and local school schedules when planning your trip.
✓Consider visiting in early May for good weather and lower crowds before summer.
✓Look up monthly events and refurbishments, such as Skyliner maintenance in January.

Crowds during holidays and school breaks — Avoid spring break, Easter, and holiday weekends; consider early September for lower crowds.
Weather and hurricane season — September is warm and peak hurricane season, but crowds are low; stay at a Disney resort for safety.
