***Official April 2026 Thread***

[srauseo]

I don't see an official thread yet so I though I'd start one!

I am heading back to WDW April 13 - 16. This will be a quick trip tacked on to a visit with relatives in Naples. Planning to stay at the Swan Reserve and visit EPCOT, HS, and MK. No AK this trip given the short duration...and I think we'll wait to go back when the new rides are in.

Hoping to take advantage of Early Entry and Extended Evening with some midday breaks and have a few new spots we want to see like GEO-82 and Beak and Barrel. There have been quite a few changes since our last visit in early 2023 so I am thinking about how our park strategy might change.

Anyone else going in April?

Hoping to go down April 15-19, if I can get into the 10k for the Springtime runs. We are out of dvc points so thinking we might stay at the swan or split between 2 nights at Helios Grand/2 nights swan.

We're booked for Apr 19-25th at the Cabins at Fort Wilderness! It'll be my husband's and son's first visit (also his 3rd birthday) and my first visit since 2019! I'm so excited!

I stayed at the Swan in 2023 and really liked it. Great location. Great views. Room was very comfortable - the extra sink outside the bathroom is a nice plus. Almost went with it again but wanted to give Reserve a try.

The new cabins look really nice. The two sinks are so helpful in the morning. And those bunk beds are adorable. I was looking at the water taxis the other day and didn't realize the ride from Fort Wilderness to the Magic Kingdom was so short. It's apparently less than 15 minutes!
