Go in March or June?

[tiberius]

We are planning a trip that could go in the second week of March (our local school break) or starting May 31 when school lets out. We have only been to WDW during other periods and are not sure which of these choices would be better crowd-wise.

My vote is for March. It is definitely cooler. The crowds are still there but they are no where as bas as in the summer. Local schools here let out at the end of May the beginning of June. The lines at the parks are awesome then. We have been in March (my sons birthday is in March) and the crowds are somewhat bigger but they are definitely more managable. Also the heat is much worse in May/June then in March.

We chose June because the crowds are perfectly manageable with fastpass (except on Sunday nights for some reason) and we love to swim and wanted warmer weather. I am pretty wimpy in March. It CAN be quite chilly.

We've been numerous times in March and once in June. Never never never again in June - too hot - and we left first week in June. Could only bear the heat in Animal Kingdom to see the Lion King Show and then leave quickly. I will only visit WDW during spring break during March.

We vote for March also! As our Spring Break is the 2nd week in March the crowds aren't huge yet and the weather perfect. It was actually 90 degrees 2 days last year in March and my DH and I both agreed we could never do Disney hotter than that....crowds + heat make my kids crabby. We are also wimps in cold weather swimming but with the pools being heated my kids have swam both of our trips in March. The only reason to go in June vs March IMHO is the prices are much lower! March is so expensive..
