Hey, we've done quite a few trips mid September.... Value season and what used to be a low crowd period but Disney has jammed up most value season times with some perk to fill up the resorts so most slack periods aren' so slack...but it's always better than mid summer and holiday times...

Plus the weather is hot hot hot.... Just how we like it.... We really like going in the Seotember/October time slot.... We enjoy pool lounging noon time every day and the weather than is very conducive for our purpose...with the end of September and early October it's possible to get into the Halloween season and a chance at the MNSSHP ....for us it's the ideal time.... Before the Thanksgiving crowd and Main Halloween party crowd and most children are back to school but from what I see in the parks , not really but over all a great time for lower crowds..

We go every year in Sept, and love it. It's still quite hot (low to mid 90's), but the low crowd levels are more than worth it.

We usually walk onto many rides and just FP the ones that normally fill up quickly. FPs don't run out until quite late, and wait times are 15-20 min otherwise. Love love love going during Sept.

We always go then too, usually go to the first or second MNSSHP too. Weather is good and usually some good sales at the malls so that we can bring home our favourite stuff cheaply!!! (Bath and Body Works in particular and lady speedstick!!!)

We always travel to WDW and the other Orlando theme parks in late Aug and Sept. It's very hot and humid but we love the low crowds.

Every year!!!
It's our favorite time other than Christmas.
It is ridiculously hot and humid, but crowds are low most of the month, so it's a trade-off.

I agree with the other posters. This will be our 3rd (I think) (maybe 4th) trip in September. It is crazy humid and hot. The crowds arent too bad if you pick the correct park for the day. The down side is the park hours are shorter for the most part. And there are no EMH at the water parks. But with less crowds, you should be able to do more in a shorter time.

I agree with the other posters. It is a good time to go. The lines are "never" over 30 minutes and usually under 20. The weather usually gives a sprinkle or two in the afternoon and that just makes it steamy. This is our favorite time to go to WDW because you can also catch the NSSHP.

How is end of sept vs beginning? Any big difference?

Mid September is great. Temps are probably mid 80 to low 90s. We went a couple of times at this time before kids started school. We walked on all rides and even got to ride some a second time without getting off.

You will love it. When we were there 4500 people checked out of CBR on labor day. I had asked the bartender at CBR were everyone was and that is what he told me. The pool was deserted.

Have fun.
