Hi everybody,
If you had just a weekend to go up to orlando, and God forbid, you can't stay onsite ( sniff, sniff), which weekend do you think would be the slowest to avoid the lines. We are sooooooooo spoiled with front of the line, but considering it is not anywhere near the time for our "yearly" trip up there, I was thinking of doing a quick weekend run considering we have annual passes and trying to find a cheapie deal at one of the offsite hotels.
It will be the first time that we ever have to skip the express line, hope I can stand it!!! They sure do know how to spoil ya.
Thanks for any help
 
After years of unscientific research I have concluded that Sunday mornings, especially late September; early October are THE BEST TIME TO GO!
 
I was there the week after New Yeras, it was a ghost town!
 
Right now is pretty slow. September (except Labor Day weekend) tends to be the slowest out of them all. I also went during the 2nd week of January and it was pretty slow then too. The downside of September is that most hurricanes usually develop during then. January also has a tendency to be cold.
 

early november, just after HHN and before thanksgiving is also very dead. it's so dead right now, most lines max out at 30 mins!
 
Now is good. Just got back. Most rides we're a walkon. Amazing seeing Hulk with a 10 minute wait in the afternoon.

Late February is also my favorite month. Temps are 55 in the morning, but go back to 75 in the afternoon. Everything is a walkon.
 
Wow, it looks like anytime between now and december would be pretty good, I think Jan and Feb will be too cold for me. (thin blood) but maybe the middle of october after report cards come out. Thanks to all who replied. Now i just have to find a cheap rate at a decent hotel.
