I was in the park at 7:55 and pulled into parking lot at 7:15. I sent my wife and kids through while I took backpacks through security and they got in turnstile line and we got a quick line. To be safe I would be in parking lot by 7am

Thanks. We are walking from a nearby hotel so trying to time it out while still getting the included breakfast (that doesn't start until 6:30...)...
Thanks!

We stayed at Park Vue Inn last weekend and got in line at 7:15. The lines were already backed up to DCA. We scanned into the parks at 7:56. Got group 21. I would recommend getting in line by 7am if possible to avoid stress. If you are in line by 7, you will make it in. So I’d be at security by 6:50.
 
Maybe this has already been covered - without going back and reading all 150+ posts....here goes my question;

We are debating going 2/14-2/17 because that is the only weekend we can go - but I'm really afraid that the crowds are going to be out of control. Our park days would be Sat/Sun the 15 & 16.

If we are staying within walking distance and the park has EMH hours (open at 7) - what time should you get to bag check to have the best chance of being in the park by 8? We have APs but no EMH - we will be staying at the Hampton Inn nearby.

We are thinking of leaving the hotel by 630a which should put us at bag check a bit before 7am...with it being a busy holiday weekend and also a cheerleading competition at the convention center that weekend - do we have a good chance of getting into the park prior to 8am assuming they open the gates a bit early to DL?

We live in NorCal and it is between this and a Vegas weekend for my husband and I - we wouldn't be able to get back to DL again until at least June. Just wondering if it is worth the stress of trying it now or just waiting until the summertime?? I have anxiety already.

I predict that weekend is probably going to be busier than any long weekend of the year. Why? Canada has a long weekend too (family day) and valentines day is the Friday before. So literally two countries will be vacationing at the same time for 4 days. I know this because flight prices are INSANE for that weekend... I've never seen it that bad. Vegas hotel prices also insane.

I'd wait till the summer...
 
I have group 112. We had app problems but got it solved. We are AP and this is our first attempt. I definitely know what I will be doing different and will be here all day unless we see down time as we might make it.


what kind of phone do you have and were you on wifi or a carrier and if so, which carrier?
