How long are your Disney World trips???

We started out doing a 3 night trip way back when, next trip, 5 then 7 and now I think the sweet spot (for my family) is 8-10 nights. We go in September (our other sweet spot for everyones vacation time).

I currently do 3 10 day trips each year in Jan, May and Oct. Changing a bit next year as I have two cruises planned.

More often than not we stay 5 or 6 nights - over 65% of our WDW trips.

Flew down for as little as a 2 night trip (D23 Tron preview). Longest was 8 nights a few times.

We seem to get more done during 5-6 nights than 7-8 nights Too much lollygaggin’ thinking there’s plenty of time!

I’ve really only been a few times, and I plan to go 9-13 days most of the time, but I did write up the ideal scenarios…

Ideal trips

6 Days (not often)

• Sun-Fri - 5 nights (0 Weekend Nights)
• 4 Day Hopper

9 Days (most common)

• Sat-Sun - 8 nights (3 Weekend Nights)
• 7 Day Hopper (6-8 day hopper)
• Best use of time off work

13 Days (full vacation)

• Sun-Fri - 12 nights (2 Weekend Nights)
• 10 Day Hopper
• Best use of points

20 Days (retirement trips)

• Sun-Fri - 19 nights (4 Weekend Nights)
• 14 Day Hopper (UK)

If you visit more than once per year, think about the length of one typical trip, not the total number of nights per year.

Would be interesting to see # of nights per trip VS # of trips per year.

Over the last decade we average 2 trips a year and around 10-14 nights total.

We are typically once per 18-24 months and 3-5 nights each visit.
