December- To go or not to go?

[LovingDisney11]

My boyfriend and I are trying to decide about a trip in December. The dates would be Dec. 18th-23rd. I keep seeing the crowd level charts and am really undecided. With his work schedule though the only time we could go would be over holiday breaks, which will always be crowded. So to go or not to go? I think the next time we could go would be Easter Break. Would that be a better time crowd-wise to go?

In my opinion Easter is more crowded, depending on when it falls because you could potentially end up with spring breakers too. I have been in the beginning of december and it was moderately crowded, the best time I have ever been was in September but that was a few years ago and could have changed now with all the free dining promotions.

In 2007, we went from December 15 - December 24. The crowds were easy to get around and not too bad from Dec. 15 - Dec. 22 The crowds did get much bigger Dec. 23 and 24, but we still had a great time.

If the decision is to go or not go, I always choose go. Christmastime is BEAUTIFUL. My favorite time to go. It can be crowded, but truly, that never really bothers me when its not sweltering outside. December weather makes the crowds bearable.

So if my only reason for not going would be the crowds, I would choose to go.
