Week before Easter terribly crowded?

[triplefigs]

Is this a really bad time to go? My kids Spring Break is the week before Easter in 2007 (1st week of April). Trying to decide if it would be a bad decision to go that week. I do subscribe to TGM and would use his plans.

Thanks!

Hi,

That should be a pretty busy week. In addition to the second half of the week having Holy Thursday and Good Friday, the first half of the week has the first day of Passover (it begins Monday April 2 at sundown). Accordingly, I would expect most public schools in the Northeast to be closed that week in 2007.

The week before Easter, week after Easter, and week between Christmas and New Year are the three busiest weeks at WDW. So, yes, it will be terribly crowded . But, if you go with that in mind, and make a good plan (get to parks early, do the big rides with FP, use TGM suggestions, etc), you should be okay.

It will be very crowded. HOWEVER...this will be our 3rd Easter in a a row at Disney. It is very workable with good planning. Each year we have had a wonderful time, and we have been able to see and do all that we want. The weather is beautiful too! This is my 1st year using TGM, so I am anxious to see how it works. We always just get there early, etc...and we've done well!

Don't be scared off!
