Trip In January 2006

Plan on going to Disney January 19-January 25, 2006. Does anyone know if there are any convention or school holidays going on during that time. Trying to figure out how busy they will be as it is duing value season.

Your dates are after MLK weekend which is a good thing. Also one of the big cheerleading competitions is that same weekend so they should also be cleared out. January and Feb are good months for conventions in and around WDW, but when we went this past Jan 27-Feb 6th, it still didn't affect crowds. Crowds were generally low except on weekends and even then not bad at all.

We are going during almost the same time and I have been unable to find anything that is going that would cause heavier crowds

Have a good time.

Should be an awesome time to go. We'll be there Jan 20-27

We will be there from the 23rd of Jan - Feb 2nd and I have yet to find anything to deter me...except maybe the weather.

We know that it might be 80 or it might be cold...but coming from Maine it would have to be REAL cold to bother us that time of year!

The crowds should be a non-issue.

I was there this past March and right as I left a big cheerleading competition crowd started. I think there are alot of sporting event crowds in mid-late March. You should be ok in January, as long as you're not there during the holidays. The weather is iffy though, from what I've heard. Personally, I think it's better to be there when it's cooler, you can do a lot more without getting exhausted!

We were there around that time this past Jan., and it was very quiet. There was the Lotusphere convention at the Swan/Dolphin, but I don't think that made a big impact on park crowds. Enjoy!!

We'll be there the 15th-22nd...so we'll be running into MLK crowds for part of that first weekend, but I was told that it's still much less crowded than during peak season.
