1st week of March crowds

[Lindsey1026]

I'm going to Disney from Feb 27 to March 5th, what should I be expecting crowd-wise?

I'll be there at that time as well, well almost (2/24 - 3/1) Any how, that is the time my wife and I go every year and the crowds are more manageable than summer crowds or holiday crowds. I don't think anyone would disagree with me when I say the crowds have been getting larger no matter when you go. There was a time following 9/11 when tourism was down greatly everywhere and WDW was no exception to this. I have found that February, early March crowds are increasing but they are still, by far, better than summer vacation, Easter, Christmas, etc. I usually don't see lines for rides exceeding one hour and those are the primo rides. I still get restaurant reservations for dinner (actually have all my reservations done for next year, so yea) but it isn't that difficult to make changes if we want to eat elsewhere. Good luck and enjoy.

I'm doing almost the same ( feb 25-March 4 ). From my previous experience, I'm expecting medium crowds. When we've been around here in the past, it's ben fairly light-medium until the second week of march when it does start getting heavy.

From 1999 to about 2009 this was 'our' week, we switched to Oct for Food&Wine but we did sneak in a first in March trip in 2014. I'd call crowds 'moderate', get to your park at rope drop, use FP+ and you'll get your money's worth. We hop to WS every day by 1 pm and that place never seems crowded that week. Flower and Garden is going on then. I believe, be sure to catch the concerts on the weekends, March has the 3rd lowest rainfall in Orlando and the temps usually hit the mid 70s to mid 80s.
