Visiting First Week of May

[brockodile88]

What should we expect crowd-wise? We planned this time with the hopes of it being less busy between Spring Breaks & Schools releasing for the Summer. I hear varying reports depending what site I'm on.

Never been in May, but it has got to be less hectic than spring breaks; probably building up for summer and maybe some large groups going for graduation. Should be plenty warm, so enjoy. I usually go in the fall, so hitting the pools is 50/50 for us.

We traveled to WDW the first week of May in 2009. We used TGM and never waited in a line more than 10 minutes. Hope you have a great trip!

We went early May last year and crowds weren't bad at all! We were able to do everything we wanted with very minimal wait times. The longest we waited was with FP at Soarin' and it was less than 15 minutes. In fact, we waited longer for buses than any ride/attraction in all of Disney! Just make sure to do RD and utilize FP's and your touring will be great. Weather was perfect too...we did have an occasional shower, but they always seemed to pass rather quickly. Have a great trip!

Thanks all! Haven't been since I was 8. I'm 24 now and I can't wait to let out my inner child for the week!

We are going for the first (and last ) in May of 2014. Due to AP testing and graduation prep, I think the only week that will work for us is April 28-May 2. How is this week crowd wise? Will the late Easter have a big effect on it? May 12-16 is also a possibility, although I thought it would be more crowded and hot.

I will be sure to update this thread on what it's like as far as wait times, etc are concerned

Only trouble may be Epcot on Weekends as F&G winds down. It is a great time to go and we plan to be there 5/2-5/9 next year. I think the second week is good too.

Great! Looking forward to F&G as well. Seems like a fun event
