How crowded is President's Week

[HeatherC]

Hi - I know this has probably been asked a million times before, but the search function is down so I thought I would ask:

Is President's Week unbearably crowded? We have been there in May, October and November in the past. Next year we are doing a cruise the week before President's Week and are thinking of going to Disney for a few days afterwards.

For anyone who has been, could you please offer any suggestions or advice.

Thanks so much!

We go every year around Presidents week and it's pretty crowded but not unbearable. If you get to the parks early and use Fastpass, it's not that bad.

We went during "President's Week" this year. It was our first visit. I was slightly overwhelmed at the size of the crowds. I asked a CM if it was the most crowded she had ever seen it. She told me that it was just a little bit less crowded than Christmas time.
I have 6 children, and we managed fine. I was surprised at how much we were able to do, especially since our children are ages 15 mo to 12 yrs. I think if you have been there before, it would be even easier-you would already have an idea of how to go about things.

Im pleased you asked this question i tried to do a search as well.

We were thinking of going for our daughters birthday in February
not until 2006 though,i looked on U.S.A holidays on Deb's site(allearsnet) and her birthday falls on presidents day (20th),which means we would be there the week before as well as presidents week
