Which Park, Crowd Level - MK Basis?

[greg126]

I wonder about using MK as the basis for crowd level and how that might impact the "which park on which day" decision, if it does at all. For example, for our dates Fri is 4 and Sat is 7 so, despite the UG saying Saturday is ok and to avoid MK on Fri (I'd think with good reason since its a morning EMH), crowd-level would lead me to doing MK on Fri since my peak wait will be almost half of that on Sat.

Now, although I havent' seen any data but the UG survey of touring plans, could it be that for a given crowd level indicator, of all the parks MK has the lowest wait times on Saturdays - and EPCOT/AK on Fridays? Or, on average, might I not be better off doing MK on Friday (kinda goes against the grain thinking about a morning EMH day) and EPCOT on Sat. I understand that crowd level is over 4 times as important as day of week but I'm going to have the crowd levels I'm going to have, its just which park do I hit when.

Sure would be nice to know how the other parks stack up relative to the (MK) crowd level indicator.

Hey Greg, I think we address this in the text on the Best Days page. Check the chart for each park's busiests days, according to the survey we did.

Let me know if this doesn't address your question.

Thanks!

We went to MK for early entry on October 21 and it was fine. I really only planned to stay for the morning but the crowds weren't bad at all. UG estimated crowds at "5".

I am a wimp when it comes to crowds and waiting. The worst I saw MK was on a Wedenesday (10/19) which was an evening EMH. The park was crowded by 12:30 in the afternoon. We left and came back about 7:30 PM for Spectro at 8 PM. YIKES! People everywhere!

With an overall rating of "4" I wouldn't worry at all. Go to MK on Friday and have fun!
