President's Week 2005

[afc104]

How crowded would it be if we did not arrive until Tuesday of President's week, so we would skip the weekend and the holiday and stay until Saturday. I have talked to some people that I know who have gone at that time and the answers seem to range from very crowded to I never had to wait and don't know why everyone says how crowded it is at that time. I would have searched but the last couple times I tried I got a message it was disabled.
Thanks

Can't say for sure, but my experience is that the crowds build and taper off over a few days before and after a holiday like that. I think it will be pretty crowded on Tuesday to moderate crowds by the end of your trip. But pretty crowded is still fun, just use fastpass and do e ride nights if they have them. Enjoy!

I was there for that week this year. It was very crowded on Monday and Tuesday. By Wednesday it started tapering off. Thursday and Friday were great.

Fastpass made Monday and Tuesday bearable and we also used the UOG touring plans. Not too bad. No E-ride nights were offered.

What are the dates for President's Week? We were planning a Mardis Gras trip as kids get off school for that but not Presidents Week. If it coincides, it is usually crowded...

My DF and I went this year....The FP lines were just as long, if not longer, than the regular line. It was more crowded then Easter!

President's Day in 2005 falls on Monday, the 21st of February. We will be arriving late Tuesday evening, February 15th...and going back home on President's Day. Since that is a few days before the weekend...Do any of you think it will be crowded?...and..how late do you think the parks will be open? Which dates are considered to be "President's Week"?...the week before President's Day or the week after? I guess that would determine how long the parks will be open. There will be nine-ten of us..and I wanted to make lunch/dinner reservations in a couple of months......(one for each day)....and try to plan to see Spectromagic..(my favorite)......

Keep in mind that the kids in Florida have Presidents Day off, so family's go for the weekend
