Will Free Dining make it less crowded...

[Elitravelor]

We are there the 18th to the 25th,paying for the DDP, and hoping everyone else is going for free dining We knew about the free DDP but our vacation week was chosen because it was the only week all summer that we could all be on vacation together!!

Smaller crowds would be a bonus--but no matter--we have our plans and our ADR's all ready! Disney here we come!!

We are doing the exact same thing! We will be there 8/21-8/27 - our kids start school here in CT on 8/29, so the week before Free Dining was really our only option. We were there last year during Free Dining and felt the crowds were manageable as long as you had a plan (which my DH always has!). We're hoping for the same conditions this year but we never expect it.

Hope you have a great trip!

We'll be there August 17-24 in hopes of smaller crowds as well

Same to you ColleenLovesMickey!

I am a teacher and we go back on the 27th-- I am sure I will still have pixie dust in my eyes--which will help with all the unpacking,laundry to do before I hit staff meetings. Fortunately,DS and DD have another week of summer vacation!

Our schools start on 9/04 -- so we were able to squeeze in a full week of DDP. I'm getting really nervous about the crowds though.

We went last year during free dining in Sept. 9-15 and the crowds were VERY light. We did not wait for much and it was a great time
