Anyone there today through Monday? Just wondering how the crowds are now. Trying to plan for this time next year.
Thanks
 
Not sure if this will help--but we were three from 5/19 - 5/24. Crowds were low and it was just perfect! With a little help from FP, and getting there when the parks opened, we did not wait in line for more than 7 minutes for anything. The longest we waited for anything was 20 minutes in a food line at TL because we had a trainee. We also avoided the EMH days for the parks. Hopefully we'll go back same time next year!
 
I was there 5/20 - 5/25 and i thought it was crowded. We saw wait times of 50 and 75 minutes on some of the popular rides...

Maybe we just hit it wrong. We did make a point of hitting the parks early and getting the big rides done, but when we came back later in the day after a break, it was difficult to find rides without a wait, or with fastpass return times that we could work around.

THANKS
 

We did MGM on 5/20 (fri) left for a while and came back for fantasmic
Epcot 5/21 (sat) and BB in the afternoon
AK 5/22 (sun), TL in afternoon and MK in eve for parade,fireworks
TL 5/23 (mon)
MK 5/24 (tue) left by 4--we had done everything.
 
It seemed crowded to us May19-23, but we didn't really have to wait long for rides. We used fast pass a couple of times with longer rides. The longest wait we saw was for Soarin and it was 90 minutes. We used fast pass and were on the ride in less than 15 min. And when MK was open until 11 it was not very busy except on main street d/t fireworks and parade. We walked down frontierland with almost no one else in view during the fireworks.
We normally go in early Dec or January so maybe that is why it seemed crowded to us.
 
The crowds were very light until Sunday (May 21). After that it seemed like people were pouring in. Maybe people are vacationing this week because the following Monday is a holiday. It still was never as bad as our normal time we go which is Spring break (third week of March each year).

However, the temps are already getting hot! Take plenty of water to drink.

HTH,
Susan
