Tell me about late February/early March

[luvgoing2disney]

We are just todya considering a trip for late February, early March and have never gone then. Anyone wanna share your experiences visiting during that time period?

We are going (again) during that week. For us, it's because the weather is a little less unpredictable than Jan., but we'll still avoid the heat and humidity of other times of the year, no holiday weekends, the South American tour groups are gone, spring break hasn't started yet, and decent room discounts were available.

We went the last week of February two years ago and had a blast. The parks were obviously crowded on the weekends (mostly Friday night at MK) but the middle of the week it was easy to get around and onto most of what we wanted to see. Gosh, we even snagged FPes for TSMM twice .... and ended up giving them away twice since half the party didn't want to go. The longest lines I remember were to meet Buzz & Woody and to get into Fantasmic! As for the weather, I barely remember any rain and the only times I truly needed a light jacket were when we were around water (Illuminations/Fantasmic!). The parks may close sooner than other times of year -- 5/7/9pm most nights if there are no EMH hours for AK/HS/Epcot & MK, respectively -- but we managed to get in what we wanted. Of course, every year is different and this was all pre-FP+, but we're headed down again the same exact week this upcoming year. Hoping it's good again.

Would I recommend going that time of year? Yes!
