How busy is Mid March

[sdoll]

We are thinking about coming 3/10-3/17. How are the crowds? We have managed to always miss the crowds and would like to continue that trend. I would like to bring out babysitter along so we can have some fun too. That is when she is on spring break. Do you think it will be crazy??

We will be there on those dates too. I think most of Texas has that week off.

It will be busy. We are FL residents and our spring break is during that time....so is most of Florida

Sorry, you won't be missing the crowds. It is spring break for a lot of people. We went around that time in 2004, it was so busy and crowded. We vowed never to go during that time period again unless we have to.

We were there this past March from the 18-25. Out of all the times I have been to WDW, this by far was the busiest. Certain days of the week at certain parks were just "ok" crowd-wise... other days were, for me, completely unbearable. When I have to wade through huge crowds of people just to REACH the fastpass machines, you know it's not a great day. On two occasions, ADR's were completely taken up at the MK. They had signs posted on Main Street advertising that fact- suggesting to eat at any of their counter service areas. Lines were long, long, long. On the plus side, weather was beautiful! And through it all, we managed to have a magical time!

I made a solo visit to WDW this past March (17th - 20th) and found the crowds to be moderate to crowded. On Friday, 17th (St. Patrick's Day) I went to Epcot, where it was evening EMH, and the park was so crowded that I simply gave up and went back to my resort. I went on those dates because I wanted to see a couple of the Atlanta Braves' spring training games, which may have added to the crowds a bit. There were also several school groups in the parks, which also added to the crowding. I do not plan to make a return visit to WDW in March.

I started a thread before on this for the same week and was told moderate crowds.

We were there that same week in 2005. Were there people there? Of course. Was it so crazy crowded that I wanted to run away screaming? Not at all. With a little planning and Fast Pass we managed to ride and see pretty well everything we wanted to more than once. I really don't like crowds but I thought this week was fine.
