How were the crowds Columbus Day wkend? Sun night HHN?

[bjakmom]

Planning an October trip for next year - am thinking of ending week at WDW with long weekend (Columbus Day) at HRH - anyone just there this year who can give me their opinion on the crowds?

Also thinking of doing the Sun night HHN next year since we can sleep in until check out and then go right to the airport - is that a good night? When do tickets first go on sale? TIA !

We were at RPR from oct 11-18

NO lines at all . We found that a lot of the rides were not even using FOTL because there was no wait.

We did not attend HHN. We did MNSSHP instead because of the age of our daughter.

Hoping to go back next year same time.

I went from the 8th to the 10th. I went to HHN on the 10th which was a Sunday and I don't remember it being very busy. I think the longest line I saw was like 60 mins. There was plenty of room to walk around.
I also went to HHN last Saturday night and I promised myself I would never go again on a Saturday night or that late in the month. The crowds were so bad that it was really hard to even walk! I saw lines at the houses and attractions over 2 hours.

We were at RPR 10/7-9. Thursday afternoon not much in crowds, Friday didn't seem too bad, went on Saturday morning for a few hrs to IOA. Dueling dragons we walked right on several times when we went back over to the Hulk & to leave it seemed very crowded & huge line to get into the park. This was around 11am.
