There does tend to be 2 or 3 things closed that we miss in Feb. We went this year and the railroad, Splash Mountain, and Tom Sawyer's Island were closed. But it's always different. The time that we were really bummed out was a few years ago when both Pirates and Splash Mountain were closed.

In fact, now that I think about it, Splash Mountain has been closed the last 3 times we went in February. So that is probably the most likely possibility.

Just keep checking the DL website. They generally have the closures posted at least 3 months in advance.

They have been doing a lot of major refurbishments to rides, but the good news is it seems like most of the major rides are just about done!

You are missing the holiday switch overs so for the most part unless they are working on something new you should be fine.

I will always say Halloween or Christmas with Christmas #1. I think actually right around Thanksgiving is the best! While the crowds might be better in Febuary (though you can find non-holiday weeks in October-December that are just as great), I love the festive feeling of DLR at the Holidays! I also am a huge fan of the HMH so that is a huge draw for me.

All the times you are looking at are good though, youll have a lot of fun!
