What type of crowds to expect may 12-17th?

I just scheduled a VERY unplanned trip for this time period and I have no idea what to expect. I do know that availability on AP rates was WIDE open for this time, I'm hoping that's indicative of less crowds somehow?

Unofficial Guide puts those days at a crowd level of "3" out of 10.

I'm just surprised about the AP rates, I thought I had read people were having a hard time getting AP rates for that time period.

We went last year at that time and we're going again this year at that time. It's really wonderful. I think the longest I waited for anything was like, 20 minutes tops.

I am hoping for low crowds then as well. We also booked an unexpected short trip from 5/14 to 5/17 (just couldn't pass us that $39 one way airfare with Southwest). We booked the KTTK tour and had no problem getting the date we wanted for our party - so hoping that means that crowds will be manageable.

I just scheduled this two days ago and I was given my choice of two resorts at each level. Maybe people who had specifics in mind were having trouble, but I had NO expectations when I called and was totally surprised to get ANY AP rate this close in.

This is turning out to be the trip that was just meant to be. $80 roundtrip airfare, ap rates on the rooms and easy reservations with the princess meals! I've been so sprinkled with pixie dust I am just loving it!

You are so sprinkled with Pixie dust!!!

I had a hard time getting princess breakfast and I booked pretty close to 90 days out for May 12.

I booked ours for the 21st. Surprisingly I got it on the first try.
