Which week is worse?

[GrumpeyMom]

I'm tentatively planning another trip for next year. I don't want to take the kids out of school twice in one school year so I'm looking at a school vacation week. Do you think President's week or Easter week would be more crowded? Anyone with personal experience these weeks? Thanks!

We have only ever been during spring break and it was the most crowded we have ever seen. I heard President's week is crowded but I cannot imagine it as crowded at Easter.

If Easter conicides with a vacation e.g. Spring break it will be busier I believe.

Keep in mind most schools have President's Week (or at least a few days) not everyone has Easter Week. I know in our schools it does often coincide.

Easter week is completley packed at WDW. Presidents weekend (Including the Thursday before to the Monday after) is crowded, but not nearly as bad. We go every year during Prez week....The crowds disperse by Tuesday and we stay until the following Monday. Crowds are never a problem after the holiday weekend. If crowds are your main concern, arrive the Tuesday after Presidents weekend.

President's week should be less crowded than Easter week. Is MLK's bday week an option for you? I think MLK's bday is observed on January 16 next year, and while it's busy by January standards, it's certainly not busy compared to the other times you mentioned.
