I have a list from 2 years ago for our trip to WDW about which day were the busiest. My question is does this list still apply or has the days changed. Here is that list:

Busiest days at the Parks

Monday- MK, AK
Tuesday- AK, EP
Wednesday- EP
Thursday- MK, AK
Friday- Epcot
Saturday- MK, EP

These were also the EE days listed then. Are they the same now?

Mon- MK
Tue- EP
Wed- MGM
Thur- MK
Fri- EP
Sat- MK
Sun- MGM

Hope this helps if it is still up to date.
 
CoachV,

Two years makes a big difference. The one thing that never changes: Saturday in MK is jammed at most times of the year. I heard someone on these boards call it "canned spam." That's about right.

The new EE days:

Sunday - Magic Kingdom
Monday - Disney's Animal Kingdom
Tuesday - Disney-MGM Studios
Wednesday - Epcot®
Thursday - Magic Kingdom
Friday - Disney's Animal Kingdom
Saturday - Disney-MGM Studios

Sunday is crowded at MK, but not as bad as Saturday. Monday is not as bad as it used to be, but still seems to be a lot of people's 'first day in Disney choice." Friday's at Epcot, especially after 4, can get pretty busy from people coming in to eat. Beyond that, my personal rule is avoid MK on Saturday and Sunday, avoid the EE parks, at least after 10 AM (if you're EE eligible), and you should have a better time than if you ignore the above.

I'll look forward to hearing the take from others.

I thought Sundays were suppose to be good days at MK because everyone was either leaving Orlando or just getting there. I felt Mondays would be the worst day for MK besides Saturdays. I hope others will give there input as well.
 
My experience the past two years was that MK was very uncrowded on Sunday morning until around noon. But with Sunday being an EE day at MK, I imagine it will be more crowded in the am. I agree about staying away from MK on a Saturday, you can get there later if you only want to see a parade. Last year a CM that worked at MK told us the least crowded days for MK were Tuesday and Wednesday. The worst days were Saturday and Monday. We have also experience fairly large crowds on the Friday after grad nights because it is usually a Spectro and FIS night.
