I have never been to WDW after Valentine's... how busy are the parks between Feb 15-28th?

What's your experience? Is it too scary to fathom and should I just forget it? :scared1:

We went the last week of Feb in 2008 and the park was empty during the week. Our first day there we walked on all the rides in Tomorrowland and Fantasyland during the first 2 hours. The weekends were a little more crowded especially during the middle of the day but they thinned out in the evenings.

I went around that time and the crowds were perfect - few and far between. The only bummer was the weather. It was cold and rained every day, buut that could happen at any time.

We went this February for the last week. Other than the odd homeschooler or family with very young children, the only people there for the most part were from New Hampshire or New Orleans. There was purple, gold and green EVERYWHERE. Pop was completely full according to CMs but I'm guessing nothing else was because the lines were very short everywhere.

The prices were enough to scare me away! I bet the crowds are not bad if you can get past the cost!:scared1:

We are also planning to be there the last week of Feb. We are from Michigan and our schools have a winter break that week but I don't think this is common so I am hoping for smaller crowds

The crowds shouldn't be too bad the week of the 20th, but the week of the 15th is President's week, which is one of the biggest school break weeks of the year. I've never been to Disney personally that week, but I've heard it gets crazy.

The next two-ish weeks after that are much slower.

I agree with previous poster that the week of President's day is the worst and then the crowds will lighten considerably. Here is a poll showing when different schools will be on winter and spriong breaks. Hope it helps.

We usually go the second to last week of Feb and it's not bad at all. Last year we went Wednesday to Tuesday and for some reason the Monday was REALLY crowded. Haunted Mansion had a 50 minute wait :scared1: But other than that day it was fine. Most people there are from New England. I live in RI and have vacation the third week of Feb. I think all New England schools have that. Last year for some reason there were a TON of people from South America. I have NO clue why. It was funny though, one day it was like 63 degrees, I was in shorts, they were all in hats, gloves, scarves, and winter coats :rotfl:
