WDW on Labor Day

[millettesinbend]

We just booked a stay at Boardwalk Villas for 9-4 to 9-12 and are very !!! What should we expect for crowds and weather and what must we do with our two little 's age 1 and 3?
Thanks

We stayed at the Yacht Club the past two Labor Day weekends. The weekend itself is busy, but Labor Day itself is very quiet (everyone seemed to be heading home that day). The day after Labor Day is even more quiet. In fact, we were riding Test Track the day after Labor Day and after completing the course, the CM asked us all if we wanted to go around again and of course we all screamed yes, and he sent us around again. The Sunday before Labor Day last year was one of the busiest I've seen in Epcot in a long time. If you didn't have PS's in an Epcot restaurant, then you could forget about having dinner in a table-service restraurant there.

And it was really hot and humid that weekend!

So the days after Labor Day aren't crowded?
That's what I hoped for

Labor day is crowded. Yes, but it does start to become much less crowded after Labor day, and especially so the week after Labor day.

This year the Nights of Joy (is that the right name?) start at the thursday after Labor Day!
So maybe tuesday and wednesday will be less crowded, so that's the right time for me and my company to visit MK!

Was at Disney in Sept. 2002, the weather was great. Our first day at the parks was the tuesday after Labor Day and we stayed thru Friday. It was wonderful, no lines. We tried the fast pass system for a few things but found that when we arrived at the scheduled time, there was no wait in the regular line. We we're able to ride the buzz lightyear space ranger spin a few times in a row just exiting and walking right back in.

Our daughter was 3 at the time, with smaller crowds, the characters we're able to spend more time with the kids. We found Donald Duck at one point and had him all to ourselves for a couple of minutes for pictures, the same with a few other characters.

We're going with some family members this year, but they couldn't get vacation that week, so we we're stuck with Oct. 11 - 16. Hopefully this won't be too bad.

Life is allways fun, when you're at Disneyworld!
Have a nice trip!
