If the parks are too crowded,what to do??

[matt&jakesmom]

We are going end of June. Normally we go end of August when most of the schools are back in session. The parks are normally not that busy and we don't have much wait in lines for rides. I have to say I am nervous about June. I guess I am expecting the worse. 2 years ago we happened to be there over Labor Day weekend and the waits in Fantasyland were about an hour. Good thing we had already done everything the few days before, but it was packed. My game plan is to at least have the kids ride their favorites.

Any advice would help. Thanks.

well - i guess the general crowd management advise would apply here.....

get to the parks early.

avoid the EE park for that day or be there for opening at the EE park and then leave the park (for another park or another activity) at around 11ish.

fastpass.

hit major attractions when the parades or fireworks are going on.

From my experience on going during the HOT summer time is:

1) Start early in the morning

2) Noon time go to your resort and either swim or nap (so hot and busy in the parks at this time of day)

3) Head back to the park in the evening time (the weather will be a little cooler and the crowds thinned out a bit)

4) fast pass whenever possible

5) If you have already seen the parades, this is the best time to ride the rides.

6) Remember if you don't get everything done.....you have a great excuse to start planning the next trip soon

Get there at park opening and hit the big rides first. Also hit the slower-loading rides first. Touringplans.com should help. You can also park hop. Like hit the MK in the early morning and then hit the DS in the afternoon (because many people hit DS in the morning, spend a half day, and leave).
