We are looking to go to WDW end of Feb. beginning of March. I believe Easter is at the end of march this year. Will WDW be crowded at the time we are planning to go? Should we wait until after Easter? THX!

2/21/05 is President's Day/week, very crowded. Easter is 3/27/05. Not sure when Spring breaks are.

Good question, we've got a trip planned for the third week in April. I'm hoping everyone will have gone home by then.

For the first time every our break is easter week.... I've been watching when others post there breaks are for the up coming year and they are all over the map school that usually have an easter break are having a break in april and just a weekend for easter..... I'm hoping that it means that while Easter will be crowded it will be a little less then normal....

This year 04 easter and our spring break was at the same time, now according to the kids school calendars for 05 they are only getting like a day or 2 off for easter and the spring break is the last week of april, unusually late, but thats when we are going to disney, hmm hope the whole nj/ny metro area isint there at the same time too. We will book early and get our flights as soon as southwest releases the dates. Good luck.

NYC public schools are only closed for Good Friday. We have the last week of April off. It seems like everyone's heading to Orlando that week. My son and I are doing the 4 day cruise then 3 nights at Disney. I can't wait.

Normally the parks are pretty packed most of March and April because of all the different Spring Break times. Other holiday weekends have a lot of people...but not as much as Mar-Apr. I hopped over the the MK last year during that time and LEFT. It was so horrible. I think we ended up going to Epcot which was a lot better. MK is always the worst.
