How many days do you stay?

We go from 8-11 days. This year our trip is 11 days. We have 5 day PH with the WP and more tickets. So we plan to alternate between the 4 parks and WP's. We will do WP's on our "off" days. We won't spend more than 5 or 6 hours at a WP, go at 10 and leave by 3 or so. We figure these will be pretty relaxing days. We also have one day built in where we have nothing planned but hanging around our resort. We will spend time at DS, we also are going to try to see the deluxe resorts (go for dinner and see the electrical water pageant from one of the beaches) and go to the campfire with Chip and Dale at Wilderness Lodge. There is so much to do outside the parks but still on property.
 
7-10 nights for us every trip which is about every 2-3 years. The longer trip allows us to not feel rushed and instead relax a bit. We don't have to go at rope drop and close the park each night although a few days we do.
 
Our upcoming trip is 11 day, prior to that it was 7 days. I'm in Canada so I can't come often as it's pricey to travel. With our dollar being weak against the greenback it also shaves off extra days that I would like to spend at WDW.
 
Last trip, not including arrival/departure day, we spent 10 days in Orlando. We spent 7 of them at WDW parks (3 MK, 2 AK, 1 EP, 1 HS), and 3 days resting. On two of those R&R days we went into Old Town for a couple/few hours.

Our next trip, we're a bit undecided, but it's looking like we'll spend 12-14 days in Orlando, with 5 WDW days, probably 4-5 R&R days, 1 day at Lego Land, 1 day at Fort Wilderness (probably spend the afternoon, have supper then do the campfire and stay for Wishes), and another day or two for local sight seeing etc...
 

This is my first long trip (aug) going for 9 days! We are hoping that means we can move at a relaxed pace. We usually go for 5.
 
We do 7 days and fit in what we can, which always includes hoppers so we can go to at least one park a day with a rest period between noon and 4pm. When we were kids we had a rest day at our grandparents' condo between 4 park days (MK twice, Epcot and MGM/HS once), and two days to check out other things around central Florida. I've been pushing for adding an extra day so we can check out Harry Potter world without cutting into our Disney time but so far no luck.
 
Since we go once a year we do 7 days. We always do Universal / IoA first, for two to three days then hop over to Disney. We take a break day between Universal and Dis, hang by the pool, mini golf, Disney Springs
