Jersey week - w/c 3 Nov 08

[Trixster]

I've just been reading that the Disney parks are fairly busy during this week especially towards the weekend. This coincides with part of our holiday and was wondering if it would be better to do the Universal parks this week.

What are the expected crowd levels at the Universal parks during this period up to Veteran's day?

Haven't be to US/IOA during Jersey Week, but IMO Jersey Week is blown out of proportion.

Basically NJ Public Schools shut down for a week of educational conferences for faculty. This leads to fall travel for many. It creates a spike in attendance in an otherwise slow time -- slow being relative as compared to July when the entire US have schools out. And really, is there ever a slow time in Orlando?

I had several friends who go to Orlando during Jersey week annually and believe all of Orlando (US/IOA, SW, etc) is easy to get around.
