February, October or the summer?

[JodiR]

My last trip was August 2003. It was hot and the crowds were there but it was not too bad. I am thinking of going either this summer, October or next February (week of Presidents Day...will the crowds be large during this time?)

What is my best option?

I would go for October if I were you.

February whilst generally fairly quiet, could be busy President's Week and also the weather is very unpredictable, and quite often very cool especially in the mornings.

Summers are very hot, humid and often crowded - the parks do get quieter mid-August onwards (that is when we are going this year) but it is very hot then also.

October, fairly light crowds and ideal weather.

President's week is supposed to be one the the most crowded times.

October would probably be the least crowded of the three.

If you can go in October, I would go then. It won't be super crowded and the weather will be cooler than summer time. I wouldn't go in February, because presidents day often coincides with school winter vacations, so crowds will be up around that time. Also, in October Mickey has his Not so Scary Halloween Party, so that might be something fun and extra to do while you're there. (The party is at night in MK and costs extra.) Enjoy your trip, whenever you decide to go!

Anytime is Disney time <chuckle> but, out of the choices given, I would def. lean more towards October. I have been there several times during October and love-love-loved it! Not too terribly busy, nice weather and the parks are open for good hours. I agree, President's week is on the order of peak season-crowd level wise- and summer is when most families are able to go since the kiddos are out of school. Whenever you go, I'm sure you will have a blast!

I have not been in the summer but have been in Feb and October. Given my choice I would go in October.
