I'd like to see the numbers for each park. 62 million is a lot, but spread out through the parks and other attractions makes a difference.

The companies rarely release actual numbers, the only thing we have to go off is the TEA estimated numbers and those aren't out for 2014 yet.

Even with actual numbers it would be hard to make sense of. If people go to both Disney and Universal parks for example, what does this mean in terms of more tourists in the Orlando area?

It does explain the crazy traffic though!

I can say this buck goes to Disney. Love to visit universal but waiting till the little one is a bit older. Right now it's all about Mickey.
