9/13-9/15 or 9/20-9/22

I may have to visit a week later than planned. Currently visiting the parks Tuesday through Thursday 9/13 to 9/15. Do you think the following week will be more crowded, since the Halloween Party starts that Friday (we will be gone by then but I was thinking maybe families end their trip with the Halloween Party and that may sway the crowds?)

Crowd calendars show the latter week a little bit more crowded. What do you think?

By the way, our plan is DCA (rope drop) on Tuesday, DL (rope drop) Wednesday and DL (MM) Thursday. Going with non park hoppers this time.

Any t-th will be a better bet than the weekends. It's crowded so often so just plan on it being busy so you're not disappointed. Crowd calendars don't seem very accurate. Just go when it fits your schedule.

Thanx................I also see DCA doesn't close early on the 22 so that may be good. It closes at 5pm on the 15th so park hoppers will all hop to DL that night.

I've done a lot of reseatch on this very time period because that's when we plan on going.
According the the crowd estimatoers (which are iffy) and historical info, the week beginning the 11 should be the lightest. It's also good because HM is back up and there are the lowest number of closures predicted - but that could change without notice. There are no Halloween parties to kick you out early or pay extra for.
The worst issue is that IAJ would be down on Tues ond Weds (13th & 14th) of that week.
There's a lot moer going on the week after that and it will probably be much more busy.
So anyway, hope to see you there
