Who will join us April 17-23rd?

[d96j97]

Just wondering who else will be braving the crowds to visit the world at this time. It was such a hard decision for us because of crowd levels and this is the week we have finally chose. Nothing has been written in stone yet because no codes are out yet, but my DH has to ask for time in advance so we had to make a decision.

We will be there from the 15th - the 24th. From the Comprehensive Poll we had here before, it didn't look atrocious for that week. Higher than we are used to, but not terrible.

I figured now that we have to go on school break times, I just need to do a little more planning.

Going to be there April 22-24, after a cruise. I'm checking every day for codes. Hopefully soon.

 

[Buzz2001]

we will be there 18-25

We will be there April 17-22, school vacation for our kids. Have been during Presidents week before but never in April. Hoping that crowds are not any worse than Feb. I said I would never ever go in April due to the stories I heard about the huge crowds but that was when Easter fell around the same time. At least the weather will be warmer.

We'll be there the 18th-26th! It's our first stay at WL so I'm looking forward to it. It was really hard for us to commit to dates too, based on codes, etc., but we wanted to get our flights booked before the price went up ($49/one way DC-Reagan to Orlando!!) so we finally just did it and will be hoping for AP rates after 4/17!

 

[princess lovers mom]

we will be there too, but 4/16-4/23 so we could use the most recent code offered that went thru 4/16 so we got code rate for POLY for our whole trip (still waiting to see if another code comed out that might be cheaper, but not counting on it)...another in my office came in today so excited to say she would be there 4/20-23 so we are mtg on their last day!

 

[Wish Upon A Star]

We'll be there April 14 - 23. Was able to get code rates for our first three nights before the cruise. Still waiting (crossing fingers) to get a code for the 2 nights we'll have there after the cruise.

We've been in April before and besides the one year it was Easter, crowds weren't that bad at all.

I'll be there April 18-25. I'm still waiting (not very patiently) for AP rates to come out. Last year, this week wasn't very busy except for the AK on Earth Day (NEVER AGAIN.)

 

[dgaston]

Patriot's Day and School Vacation for us! We will be at BWV from the 17th to the 22nd, and Cypress Pointe for another day at the end. We were once at WDW when New England had school vacation, and Easter was earlier, and the crowds weren't too bad. We're trying to figure out our PS tonight!

 

[momshark]

April 15 - 23 for us too!!

princess lovers mom we also got the code rate for Poly, but I booked two separate ressies for peak/regular seasons. Maybe that wasn't the way to go. Hmmm. Just waiting and crossing my fingers for code for the 17 - 23. If not, I have also double booked at POR as a back up. I REALLY, REALLY want to go to the Poly though!

We're going April 24 - 30 for a rescheduled trip. We chose the April dates since the Flower Festival will be going on & we should all enjoy that. We were supposed to go the week after Thanksgiving but, on T'giving Day, my DH got very sick. We took him to the ER & he wound up hospitalized for 5 days.

We had a terrific PIN rate for the Christmas trip & were really bummed to lose it. It has worked out pretty well after all though. We rebooked with a AAA discount (better than no discount), then, my sister got an email last month with another PIN code which is is giving us room rates almost as good as the original PIN gave.

btw...thank you to the DIS! Because of info gleaned here, I remembered we could move our ressies & not lose our deposit. We were past the window to cancel without penalty. With all the worry about DH while he was so ill, I didn't have to worry about losing a deposit for 3 rooms...so, THANK YOU, again DISers!

So sorry to hear about your DH last year, but maybe it will work out even better this time. That is always my fear...a family memeber being sick. When we went last May, my DH actually drove the 15hrs. and had been really sick for about 7 days prior. I guess the Disney magic brought him out of it.

April 16-23rd. There are 10 of us heading down together. I hope crowds aren't too bad.

Thank you very much! Being concerned someone is going to be sick at trip time always crosses my mind, too. If we could figure out a way to bottle pixie dust to make sure that doesn't happen, we would be as rich at The Mouse!

Your DH sure was a trooper making that drive. I'm really glad the Disney magic brought him out of it!

We will be there April 16th- 23rd.

16 - AKL
17-23 BCV

I hope the crowds aren't too bad - but after being spoiled by the relatively low crowds we experienced in December I'm not sure.
