How busy is it in January?

I have reservations for January 2nd - January 11th next year and I was wondering if somone could tell me how busy it may be from past experience. We were at Disney between Christmas and New Years last years so we know it is extremely busy then. Thanks in advance.

Your going at a great time to avoid the crowds Plus you will also get in on the Christmas decorations! Have Fun!

How did you go about getting your reservation? I tried online and it would let me use Jan 08 for an arrival date

You need to check the thread you started earlier about this. You may need to call CRO instead of trying online for 2008.

You have to call. Until rates are set for 2008 you cannot reserve online. When I booked they said it would be a few more weeks until rates are set.

We have been that time of year and crowds are great. They taper down pretty fast after New Year's Day and there is a little jump in attendance when the Disney Marathon weekend comes up in Jan (I think it is scheduled for the weekend of the 11th this year). So you should be fine for the most part!

PS-It can get cool. It was 39F on the morning of the Marathon. Great running weather.
