President's Day Crowds

[CATHERINEJONES]

I'm planning a trip to WDW next February, to arrive about 10 days before President's Day. I'm just worried it'll be really crowded. When do the crowds start to build - is 10 days ahead OK - will it be quiet then?? I don't mind a few busy days but not the whole vacation??? Can anyone help??

You should probably post this on the "Theme Parks" board. I think the week before President's day will be fine, and even the week after shouldn't be that bad. We went last year over President's day and the week after (which is school vacation in Mass). Other than a lot of Massachusetts people, the parks were fine. The Holiday weekend was somewhat crowded, but nothing like Thanksgiving or Easter (the other two Holidays we have been).

To repeat what anne60 said, the crowds should be fine. I went this past President's Day Weekend for a short 4-day weekend trip, and Friday wasn't horrible, just a little crowded. The crowds kept on increasing, however, over the weekend.

But 10 days out shouldn't be that bad at all.

Mon-Thurs the rides are walk on (no wait). Friday and Saturday were very crowded this year.
