Easter

[wilki32]

Just a very quick question, how busy compared to the first week of the summer holidays is it at Easter. Thinking of going for 5 nights Mon-Sat and what is the weather like.
Ok two questions

Just thought I'd try again.
Anyone been at Easter and the first week of the summer hols who can compare them?

Anthony sorry missed this first time around and can't help as I have not been in Easter.
Have a look at the trip reports here to see if that gives an indication of crowds.

Thanks Reid
Thought I'd gone invisible!

Sorry Anthony - I haven't been at Easter or in the summer!!! (yet!!)

 

[wilki32]

Thanks Di
Really just wanted to know what the crowds were like and weather. I know the weather is not going to be the same every year but just a gauge.
We want to take my parents again as the loved it when we went in July and haven't stopped talking about it ever since. At the ages of 76 & 70 they are true Disney converts

Hi - not sure on your reasoning behind an Easter visit - but if it's for the Easter "season" then I don't believe it's actually occuring in 2006.

It's not mentioned in the 2006 brochure or event guide.

Not for the 'Easter Saeason' just down to the school holidays, took daughter out in October to go to Florida. Even after writing two letters, speaking to the head of year, the form tutor, with agreement, we still had a letter a couple of weeks ago with a warning and saying that we had been reported to what sounded like a social worker! Think it's probably less hassle to go in the holidays.
Read a couple of reports so not too concerned with the weather just the crowds now, If it's so busy would probably just wait til July but then will struggle get another holiday in the summer and so the cycle starts again!

Thanks Renate
we were looking to go the week leading upto Good Friday or from Easter Monday. And agree about the lines, hell that is a long wait, who would wait 21/2 hrs for a 2 minute ride. It's good but surely not that good!

The weather is usually great - I live here in Florida. The average Orlando temperature is 71 in April (per weather.com).


I'm also going over Easter weekend - has anyone heard of any sunrise services or Sunday brunches? I know it's early but I like to plan ahead!

Just for information - I just spoke to Disney Dining and there are NO plans for an Easter Brunch posted yet.


I was able to secure a table at Cinderella's Royal Table on Saturday for lunch - no problem. He said there were tables all over the place. I didn't check Easter Sunday.

Wow - I just noticed this was for DisneyLand Paris! Oops! I was referring to WDW. Duh...
