We are going to be at FTW next February and were wondering how crowded and crazy it is there right now...(if anyone there now can answer). We will be there around the 20th of February. How bad are the crowds in the parks? Thanks for any and all info. ;)

It can be crowded the week before and after presidents day. I see the 20th is the friday following the holiday. Plan to hit the parks early if you can. Crowds should be thinned out by Sunday the 22. What day are you arriving?

I was at Epcot last night & it was pretty thick. Of course, it was Extra Magic Hour night - so that can make a difference. When we left at around 9:30pm, the line for Spaceship Earth was well outside & winding around the que. I know the prices at the Fort went up on 2/14 - so it's a pretty busy time when the prices go up.

We are going next week, and from what I have learned and been told, We should be ok, we are gonna be there the week after presidents week and there before spring breaks start. I will let everyone know when I get there.

You cant type the whole website, you just put the name of it, and then push the hyperlink button and enter it there....

That is a busy time of year since many populated northern states (e.g., Mass, NH, etc) have winter vacation. We went 2/8-2/15 and the parks were really crowded (but not as bad as Christmas). Fastpass and EMH saved us. Make your dining reservations early. Many places were SOLD OUT.

We're planning on going the week of President's day next year too!! Feb. 16 to 21. But only if the step-kids like camping this summer. That's their mid-winter break. They live in NY. I'm from Ohio, but we NEVER got a mid-winter break....What ever happened to going from Christmas Break to Spring Break???:confused3 :rolleyes1
