Magic Kingdom Was SLAMMED Today!(July 11)

[WEDWDW]

"Regular" Guests and SATGs EVERYWHERE!

So much for this being a "slow" Summer!

 

[minnie mum]

Hmm. Let me think. Was today a Monday?

 

[ArielRae]

I was thinking the same thing. Hello Monday!

 

[soniam]

Wait times look about normal for summer.

SATG?

 

[momofkids]

Josh rated today a 7 out of 10 and MK was the least recommended park. SATG = South American tour group.

This is more of a good thing than bad. We all appreciate light days at WDW, but we need the parks to keep busy to keep the Mouse healthy.

Ha. I was just telling my hubby that some friends of ours are at Disney today and they made the number one mistake of going to MK on a Monday. pays to read the disboards and get josh's advice!!

It's just another Manic Magic Monday (oh-woe)...

Well... I will be one of those idiots who will go to MK on a Monday in August....

Same! There's something magical about the castle being the first thing we see. It'll be my 3 year old and 5 year old's first time. Oh well. The rest of the week, we followed the crowd calendars.

This is part of the reason I book Sat flights to the World. Castle on day one, less busy Sun, and lower airfare. Makes for a busy Fri night, but definitely worth it.

We were at Epcot. It was empty. Saw A&E with a 10 minute in the afternoon! Sounds like I picked the right park!

@WEDWDW would you mind adding today's date to the thread title?

I dont think it even matters what day you go MK is always crowded in the summer. We went on a Tuesday and it was packed big time. It was a recommended day on easywdw crowd calendar. We went twice the last week in June. Once on Saturday and then again on Tuesday. Both days were crowded but Tuesday seem more crowded.

Can you give the website where I would find Josh's advice for crowd calendars?

Me too! Because MK must absolutely be my last park before leaving the World!!

Awww, my 5 and 3 year old are going on their first visit this summer, too.
Have a fun trip!

 

[DVCcurious]

maybe if the other three parks didn't suck so bad MK wouldn't be so busy.

 

[AngiTN]

Makes me glad we think of WDW as a whole and don't put more weight on MK than others. We never go there on a not rec day and don't care what park is our first or last to visit.
