Need your advise

[minmaui]

I have two packages reserved. The first is from September 21-26 and the second is from October 11-16.
The September package includes free dining and park hoppers.
The October package is paid dining and base tickets.
The difference in price is around $100.00
I have to make a choice. What would you choose the September package or the October package?
Crowd wise which is the best package?
Thanks in advance for your help.
I'm also posting this on the Pop Century thread.

Free dining and hoppers for me.

Are you flying and if you are have you compared the prices yet? The cheaper stay could cost more in the end. Also remember without hopper if you go to MK on a party night you won't be able to go to another park once MK closes for the Halloween Party. Looks like there's 3-4 nights of that for either stay.

Personally, I would choose FD and hoppers.

September crowds will be slightly smaller than mid-October. But September is hurricane season (Irma hit Florida on Sept 11, 2017). Pick your poison.

I would choose October for the likely cooler weather

October is still hurricane seaon, and the reservations are what, two weeks apart? I think this one is not so much of a poison, but a natural risk.

Ditto for the temps. Two weeks isnt going to make a noticeable change. I agree with keeping the Free Dining reservation.

I would go for the September package - free dining and park hoppers! October has been so busy (as has most of the months of the year lol) but you should have somewhat lower crowds in September than October.

I’d do September as well, have fun!

Thank you so much for your replies. The flights for both packages are the same.
Looks like September would be the better choice for me.
Thanks again.
