If I am used to Sept will I hate August?

[Leigh123]

We always go in Sept but DH wants to take his 8 year old nephew next year so we would have to go the 2nd to last or the last week of August because of school starting....I am used to just walking onto a ride with no wait in Sept....what will I find those weeks in August?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Yes, it will be more crowded. But, if you can manage to avoid the Labor Day crowds you should be okay. The weather is humid/hot but it's most likely like that in early Sept also. Plan ahead what you want to do, then do it as early as you can. Then you can go back later in the day and do the 'less important' stuff.

I have gone both the last week in Aug & in Sept.

Aug will be more hot & humid. You'll want to change clothes (down to your socks) 2x per day. So plan on bringing lots of clothes or doing a load of laundry.

As for lines, they are a bit longer, but not that bad. Many schools have already begun.

I think FL schools go back around the 2nd week of August. I was there 1 year during 2nd & 3rd weeks of August and the crowd went down by 25% in the 3rd week. It's still pretty crowded though. You'll have to go commando if you want to get on the hot attractions.

Leigh123, I remember the nightmare thread months ago when you were planning your Sept. trip and having problems with renting points. Please come over to the DVC board and let everyone know how it finally worked out.
