Crowd calendars

[alh2011]

Hello...I am going back to Disney Dec 2018 and I was wondering which are the best crowd calendars to follow for suggested park days. I have always used the Easy WDW ones with great success but he is no longer doing them. SOOOOO....any suggestions is greatly appreciated!

I really like Touring Plans and have been using it for years. It’s not always right, stuff happens they can’t predict, but that’s the same with all of them! I feel like they are pretty darned close and it’s neat how much science goes into their estimates

Touring plans. I miss Easy Disney. But he says with FP+ it’s harder to project crowds.

Honestly, none of them.

I go to the park that had EMH the night before.

Josh doesn't do the calendars anymore, because there is no way to predict with any accuracy. He's made several posts about his findings lately if you're interested.

It makes it much harder to plan since FP+. There were days in July that had shorter waits than the fall. Saturday is sometimes less crowded than Tuesday. At this point I'm getting hoppers so I can leave if the park is too crowded and try my luck at a second one.

I don't think any of them are necessarily very accurate.
I still look at touringplans and Kenny the pirate. They seem to be pretty similar as to crowd level for any given day.

I use Kenny The Pirate's for a bit of guidance.

It's December...holiday season. It's gonna be busy. If it's Xmas to NYE it's gonna be insanely busy (but still fun).

There, problem solved.

We are going this December too. I always use Kenny the Pirates crowd calendar, and he is pretty accurate most of the time. No one can accurately predict crowds with things the way they are now a days. Kenny's seem to hit the mark most of the time. I only use them as guidelines, not set in stone.

I miss his crowd calendars. I understand but I still wish he had them.

I agree: it is December. It is going to be busy.

It's Disney. It's always busy.

I never found Easy WDW accurate on crowd calendars or a lot of other things either. Touring Plans isn't always spot on but they are much better.
