Last minute Christmas trip??

[bjcaed]

So, we decided yesterday, Dec 5th to book a last minute trip for our Dd 13th birthday for the 18-22. Are we crazy? We have been at every time of the year Christmas. I was able to get great dinning reservations but will we be able to ride much without huge waits?? Mostly going for the Christmas experience but not sure how packed with people it will be. Any insight??

Rope drop and/or late late EMH will be your friend! It will be crowded, but with a good touring plan you'll be fine. Have you done fast passes yet?

We have not done fast passes yet! B just paid for the trip today. I have some work to do!!

We have done this before. It was wonderful! As long as you go into it with the right expectations. Enjoy the resorts there are a lot of christmas things going on there. Also, enjoy the extra shows and such. Of course we have been so many times and go so often that we don't get upset if there is a ride that we can't get on. Good Luck!

You will be gone before it gets SUPER crowded. While plenty crowded, the week before Christmas is MUCH better than the week after Christmas. Adjust your expectations, as you won't be able to do as much as you can during less crowded times. If you haven't been when the parks and resorts are decorated for Christmas, you will love soaking up the holiday spirit!
