Planning a 2020 trip..

[friedela]

We are starting to budget for our next trip in 2020, this year we went in Feb and loved it, the weather was perfect (it was -30 at home and 30 at the parks!), the crowds were busy but not nuts (I also have nothing to compare it to though) Overall it was a dream come true and we loved every minute of it. However we learned that Galaxy's Edge is opening up late Fall 2019 which sucks as we have no desire to see it and we know it will create higher crowds at HS. So I am wondering if when new attraction opens (such as Toy Story Land), do crowds increase at EVERY park? To me, that makes sense but I was hoping maybe we could just avoid HS altogether and beat some of the crowds by hitting up Epcot or MK (no desire to go back to AK). Thoughts? Going before the opening of GE isn't an option unfortunately (not enough time to save the money).

Yes, I'm sure they'll be higher in all the parks. There may be a few families who go all the time and might spend all their time at HS. But the majority will go to all the parks, if not almost all of them, even if they go to HS more than the others.

I hear you though. We just got home after a week at WDW and I'd prefer to go in January/February too due to crowds and weather. But GE's opening will make early 2020 crazy busy. (Don't get me wrong, I am excited for all the Star Wars fans in my life and glad to have new attractions, just not sure when we'll be a le to go again to get the weather and crowds we like.)
