Last week of April...busy?

[sleepyone]

Is there a chart that shows WDW's most busy times?

Also, if you've been to WDW the last week of April, did you feel it was crowded? What should we expect if we go this time of year?

TIA!

Well I went at this time several years ago. Yes, it was crowded, as there are many senior class trips still taking place. In fact, my flight was filled with teens.

Regular season starts April 15 next year.
UG (ultimate guide to disney world) as mainly 6s. Looks like a great week to go. We're aiming for May 6-13.

UG best days

Be aware this year will be much different than last because of Easter. This year it was late April, it's early next year.

You'll also have the Flower and Garden festival going on, which only impacts crowds at Epcot, and not nearly as bad as any other event.

We have been the last week in April EVERY YEAR since 1996 (it coincides with my daughters school vacation). With the exception of a couple of years when Easter was unusually late, it is a great time to go. We find the crowds quite manageable, and the weather is fantastic, with the added bonus of very few bugs.

Thanks for all the replies and especially for the link!

We went last April and found it to be very managable. The weather was great, only five minutes of rain the whole week. Compared to out trip in October, the crowds were bigger, but definately not out of control. Most of the spring break week were earlier in April and we missed the Eatsre crowds also. We plan to go again the same time next year.
