I know that this will be a very bust time to visit, but would there be any difference in crowds the Friday and Saturday right before Easter compared to the Thurs. and Fri. after?
Having never been to DL, is the Easter Week crazy? I would probably stay 4/24, 4/25, and 4/26.
I would hate to fly all the way from Massachusetts and have the parks be so unbearable. We would probably see San Diego in the beginning of the week and maybe do Legoland and Universal.
Well, no, there won't be much difference in the week before and the week after Easter in terms of crowds, sorry to say. Of the two I'd pick the Thursday and Friday AFTER Easter as more kids will be back in school then, but the crowds will still be pretty heavy.
If you're prepared for crowds and use Fast Pass as much as possible you most definitely will still have a fabulous time. Enjoy!
We go to DL each year for our spring break (last week of March). This past year, we were there on Wednesday before Easter. We didn't think it was any more crowded than any other year.
