My family of 3 will be heading to the World next year, but I'm having a hard time deciding on timing. We were there in 2014 at the end of Sept into early Oct. This time, we r looking at the end of Feb into early March or end of April into early May.
Thoughts on those 2 time frames with regard to weather, crowds, closings, etc would be appreciated.

Thank u in advance!
 
February, from President's Day through the spring breaks of March, is very busy. April into May typically isn't as crowded. The F&G is going on, and that's a beautiful time to visit Epcot!
 
I would do April into May, no doubt. Epcot will be absolutely beautiful during that time with the Flower and garden Festival in full swing. The weather should be nice and pleasant but not has hot as it will be in just 2 months. Also, I would expect crowds to be slightly lower than late February into March. Enjoy your trip!
 

I agree, April/May. February and March are very busy. Keep an eye on the date of Easter though. Looks like Easter 2017 is mid-April, so maybe the first week of May

Yeah Easter 2017 is April 16th, so i'm thinking the week before and after are going to be when most kids are on spring break (my DD is on spring break from 4/14-4/21).
 
We've been the last two years during the last week of April/first week of May. And we're going back during that time this year, too. I agree with everyone else that the Flower and Garden festival at Epcot is stunning. It is still hot this time of year, though. We're from Houston and we can take the heat. If weather is a factor for you, maybe consider February. But crowd levels aren't too bad during end Apr/beg May. On our upcoming trip our crowd levels will be 4 and under for AK, HS. MK and Ep will have crowd levels of 5. Not too bad!
