Help me to compare two weeks please?!

Right now we have the week of February 14-21, 2015, but is it just going to be crazy busy because it's the week of Presidents' Day? Should we switch to the following week or two if possible? I really don't want to have a trip that is so nuts we want to leave the parks. We have never gone that particular week so any insight would be appreciated! TIA!

I don't think it will be that awful crazy, but I will throw this in. The Princess half Marathon weekend begins on the 19th (if that's a Friday), so that weekend will be fairly crowded. We were there this past year, and although it was crowded, it wasn't miserable. Because the runners were out racing in the mornings, the parks didn't get crowded until about lunch time. Another issue may be the Daytona 500 which will be on that Sunday (I guess the 21st). That was our biggest problem getting home this year. It took us over 2 1/2 hours to get through Daytona because of race traffic. This year we will stay until Monday. So I don't know if either of those events make any difference to your choice of week. Just go have a magical time!

Hi,

It will be MUCH busier President's Day week than any other week in February. If your main concern is crowd levels, you should avoid President's Day week.

Enjoy your trip!
