Which is the best week to go to WDW?

[Tigger9]

Hi I am planning our next trip and looking to find out which week would be the best time to go, with low crowds.

Jan 5-11
Jan 12 - 18
Feb 2- 8
Feb 9- 15

What would be your first and second choice?

It looks to me like all those weeks would be low crowds, unless you have a holiday thrown in like Martin Luther King . Even then it would probably just be a little more crowded on the actual day. I would pick the first week in January, just because it would be a nice break after the holidays. You might get cold weather, so pack a jacket and gloves along with the bathing suit.

Without seeing your choices I was about to jump in and elect the second week in January. I love the cooler weather and the crowds are low!

My first choice would be Feb 2- 8 and my second would be Jan 12-18.

Our upcoming trip will be our third time during the last week of Jan/first week of February.

The crowds are at their lowest! The only downfall is that the parks close very early during those times. But I think the lack of having to wait in any long lines more than make up for that!

You do have to pack a little bit of everything though, sweatshirts, long pants, as well as shorts and tee shirts. It can go from the low 80's for a high during the day, to the low 60's during the day, so it's best to pack it all and be prepared!

I'd vote for weeks in January. I'd probably vote for the later week first and then the earlier week. The crowds and weather at that time of year are great. With the earlier week, you could probably still catch some of the decorations and Osborne lights early in your trip.

I would vote for the first week in February. We have gone that time for the last couple of years and it has been perfect. I would stay away from the second week in February because it is closer to President's weekend and the crowds start getting larger a just before the holiday weekend.

First week of Jan. That has always been my favorite time to visit. You can still catch some of the Xmas decoration. But everyone is leaving, and you just started!

I can always get into any restaurants, never a wait in line. Cool weather. The best!
