March Peak Time

[ILVPOOH]

I am thinking about going to Disney March 13 - March 19. This is peak time. Does that mean that there will be crowds? I don't think this is Spring/Easter break for anyone. I normally like to go in November (before Thanksgiving) when the crowds and weather are both good. Unfortunately we can't go then. How do you think the crowds are in March?

Actually, March is when alot of colleges start their spring break - Most Kindergarten through 12th grade schools get break closer to Easter but colleges start earlier. So WDW does tend to be pretty busy during March and April.

I've been at other times of the year - and to me March is much better than say - July. July is awful. Anyway, we always go in March and it's not really any more crowded than normal. There are college students in Orlando at that time, but many of them go to Universal and not to Disney World. I don't think you'll notice the parks being overrun by students at all. I never have.

The weather in March is a crap shoot. Last year we had sunny and 85 every day. But other years it's been more like 68 or so.

Up here in Ontario I think most school have their March Break March 15 - 19. I don't know if it affects the crowds in WDW but I'm sure alot of people head to warmer weather in March!
