Need advice when to go

[1Chance4Laura]

When should I go to WDW if I can only go between January and before the end of June 2007.

Will be going on another vacation in Dec. 2006, so I don't really want to push for January.

Which month has the best weather and the least people in lines?

First visit with my family, no small kids, can't stand too much hot weather but don't want rainy days neither, also would like to take at least one dip in a pool.

Been to Disneyland many years ago by myself when I was training for a job in CA.

Thanks for any suggestions!

We LOVE late September. Very low crowds; only had to use FastPass 2 or 3 times in a week. Still hot enough to swim but not "Florida in July" hot!

Absolutely our favorite time to go.

My 2nd choice would be November, before Thanksgiving week. Never been at this time but have looked into it. Seems like a good time, plus they are starting to put up holiday decorations by mid-Nov.

Have fun, whenever you decide to go!

We went October this year, it was managable but still busy lots of body's. Next year we are going to try November30th-December 8th. We are going to fly this time, driving 17 hours with a 13,9 and 3 year old was very stressful and we were beat when we got home.

We went in Mid-March and loved it. The temperatures in the low 80's during the day and down into the 60's at night. We are not hot and humid people so we thought it was perfect. We did need a light jacket in the mornings but were able to swim in the afternoon. That year Easter was late (April) so I don't think the crowds were too bad as they could be in March. We wouldn't have know the difference since it was our first time and we always went to the parks for opening. The waits were about 10-15 minutes after 10AM except for Dumbo which was probably 40 minutes but it felt like forever. As long as you are not going on either side of the Easter Holiday, I would highly recommend March. We paid Peak Rates but so worth it to us for the weather, not a drop of rain the whole week. You will enjoy the trip no matter when you go.

OK thanks for the suggestions everyone!

Let me get a few more dates from you all in between >>>> January and by the end of June 2007 <<<<<, when to really go for our first trip to WDW.

I won this trip from entering a sweepstakes and want it to be perfect!!!

It includes choice of trip to WDW or DL, we are going with WDW cause it's less traveling time and don't have to spend a whole day traveling there and a whole day back. The WDW includes 5 days/4 nights for ( 4 people if we want, but only one room ) at a Walt Disney Resort, 4 roundtrip airline tickets to Orlando, (4) 5 day Magic Your Way Tickets with Park Hopper Option and Water Park and More Option, and 5 day full size car rental. It has to be taken by June 2007.

Don't want to go to near December like I said before cause we are going on vacation then.

When I get contacted by the "Disney booking people", I want to have 3 dates ready for them.

I also have been trying to decide on which resort to choose first, second and third and what requests to put in for.

It will be just me and my other half ( in our 40's ) and my 20 year old son hasn't decided if he is going, but leaning toward NOT going. He's just not into rides and this sort of thing.

Trip is good for 4 people, but they allow just 2 people to go if you like, which would lower the value for tax purposes on the win.

Can't wait to go!!!

Thanks again for any help!

How great that you won a trip! I would definately go in March if you don't have to worry about the price. We stayed at Animal Kingdom Lodge and you might enjoy it since they have awesome restrauants and beautiful grounds plus you feel like you are away from the parks when you are there - much needed in our case with kids that needed to wind down. It is a place I would choose to stay just for a nice holiday w/o parks. I wanted to stay on the Poly but the kids voted for animals. I hope you son goes, there is a lot more than little kid rides to enjoy.
