April 22-26 How will it be?

[Wonders10]

Hey everyone!

With work and school, this is the best time for my family and I to travel for our extended weekend. I know it is the week after Easter and still spring break for some folks but I'm thinking it can't be as bad as the week leading up to Easter and immediately following it, right? I just don't want it to feel like summer with all the crowds. These are our planned park days and we're not using EMH:

Sat 4/22 = AK (early afternoon to early evening)
Sun 4/23 = Epcot
Mon 4/24 = free day, no parks
Tue 4/25 = MK

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

I think it will probably be quite busy through Monday, the 24th, which is the runoff from Easter week. We have visited WDW the last week of April every year since the early nineties and the only time we have found it to be uncomfortably crowded is when Easter is late, like it is this year. (Our dates this year are the 23rd thru the 30th.)

You might consider using EMH in the morning on the busy days that you are there--I think they are worth getting up an hour early. Haven't had much luck with the evening EMH, though.

Good Luck--I'm sure you'll have a great time even if its busy!
