When in June half term do you think will be busiest?

[lme30005]

Hi

Currently booked to go to Disney from Sunday - Tuesday but not sure whether this will be busier than the end of the week seeing as it's bank holidays here and loads of people might go. Not sure whether to change it to Wed - Fri.

I know it shouldn't be too bad as we always go in this half term as there are no French school holidays.

Also might be nice to have bank holidays at home then go away.

Thanks

Louise

I'm dreading how busy it'll be to be honest, booked not realising it was half term and wish we had moved it to a week later/earlier or something... fingers crossed it wont be too bad. We're there from Sunday - Thursday.

We've been 2/3 times in May/June half term and while it is busy, it is not horribly busy. The usual huge queues on Crush/Dumbo but been able to get on most things. Only queued for 5-10 mins to get on Small World and Pirates in the middle of the afternoon so quite good really.

I also like arriving on a Sunday as I found the evening quite quiet as the locals/weekenders had gone home.

Just wondering if the Brit bank holidays will make it worse this year.

I've been before on this period too and same as you, it wasn't too bad. What had me a little bit more worried is that when calling to request something, was advised that sequoia was now full and had been for a little while, and that as its the 20th it was expected to be very busy! Fingers crossed its not too bad.

As there are no European holidays I don't think it will make a lot of difference which part of the week you go but if you fancy being at home over the bank holiday you could switch. Are you able to easily change your booking easily?

yes its going to be quite busy but im not too worried, because we have from 8am - 11pm to get everything done and im sure we shall be ok as we are there for 5 days.

We are there Mon-Fri, we booked (4 adults) because of the bank holidays, not realising it was half term, and i'm a bit concerned about the crowds.

I'm guessing that Mon/Tues will be busiest due to the bank holidays, and Wed-Fri a little quieter but still busy. This is why we've got our VIP fastpass for the Tues. However, this is completely my guesswork so I wouldn't advise you to change your booking based on that!

We booked Tuesday 5th June to Friday 8th June without realising it was a school holiday in England - also worried about the crowd levels but hoping that the late opening of the Park will help.

I think you may struggle to change the dates for later in the week, as when I was looking at upgrading none of the hotels showed as available.

As mentioned the parks are open 8am-11pm which allows for lulls if its busy

I'm staying at the Marriott and they still have availability so I can change it with no problems. Decisions decisions!

Yep, looking at any dates from the Sunday to the Thursday ALL hotels are full.. the only one available (Disney wise) is davy crocket...

I'm having images of hours of queues for everything here
