Just got back late last night from WDW and already planning the next trip. With so many schools having fall breaks now, which two weeks in October 2007 would you go?
We just got back for Disney, We did the not so scary on the 31st. We had no lines, parks were not busy. i would go the last week in oct and the 1st week in nov next time.
We always go the last two weeks, starting with the weekend after Columbus Day. BTW: We also do the first 2 weeks of May, which are equally a good time to go in terms of weather and crowds.
I've been both the first week of October, and the last. I prefer the last as the crowds were lighter, the temps were a little cooler, and no dreaded love bugs! Plus the first week of October will be last few remaining days of the free dining plan (I believe you need to check in by 9/29 and can stay up to 10 days) and the table service restaurants are extremely busy. We know the plan has already been made available to the UK, now it's being offered to people staying right now as an incentive to come back in Aug/Sep. So I'd say to plan your visit anytime after the 10th of October.
