Week of Sept 6th 2008

We're going for 8 days to WDW Sept 6-13the this year. We went three years ago in Sept and it was not crowded AT ALL! It was great. Is it still not that crowded at this time?
Thanks!!!!!

We go every September and it does seem that each year, it gets a bit more crowded than the year before probably because of Free Dining being offered but still not really bad.

I know that on our trip in 2005, the parks were really empty, can't remember about 2006 LOL, and then in 2007 we were there 9/7-9/15 and they were a bit more crowded than 2005.

What I do remember is that 2007 was the worst trip for us weather wise (well other than being stuck at WDW during Hurricane Jeanne in 2004 ). It just poured and poured and there was thunder and lightening just about every night! We have never had such bad weather before. It would start in early evening and just not really let up much. I am SO glad that I decided to buy a stroller raincover for that trip! So that was the biggest bummer for us.

Probably, crowds won't be bad during your week...maybe just a bit more than you remembered in 2005. We'll be there 9/12-9/20 this year and can't wait...just hoping there is alot less rain this trip! LOL

We'll be there 9/7-13, hoping for low crowds also. Per UG crowd calendar, here are there crowd predictions starting with the 6th, 4-5-6-4-4-5-4-5. We were there Labor Day week last year and the crowds were awesome. It was HOT, some rain but not bad, though that is pretty impossible to predict. The restaurants were very crowded r/t free dining but we had our ADR's and it wasn't a problem. So excited for MNSSHP.
Have fun!!!!

We are going the same week (Sept 5th-13th for us). Can't wait!!! Other than some afternoon/early evening rain...we haven't had anything to complain about. I really haven't noticed that the parks are that much more crowded because of free dining (you can still walk onto rides and I've never had to use FastPass). The restaurants, however, are PACKED. Which is why I made my ADRs a month ago!!!
