Will I need to purchase Front of line pass if going 1st week of May?

Hi,
We're planning on going to IOA on 5/5. I'm trying to figure out if I will need the front of the line pass (the one that is $20, I may have the name wrong). Do you think there will be large crowds. I'm hoping not, since WDW will be kicking off their 50the celebration that day.

I don't think you will need express pass plus the first week in May. It's usually not busy then.

Thanks. That will save us some money!

What about a Friday?
Like April 29th ?

Any predictions?

We'll be in Orlando 4/28 - 5/7. Mostly at WDW but we're doing one day at Universal and one day at Sea World.

Still light crowds, kids are in school.
Orlando gets out May 23rd. Broward gets out June 2nd.
It's the calm before the summer season.

So any ideas what May 20 (Friday) might be like? It will just be me (solo trip - 1 day tacked on to a business trip - yippee!!), so no kids to slow me down Can I hit the major thrill rides at IOA, lunch at Citywalk and do just a few things (new stuff since I was last there, like Shrek 3D and Mummy) at Universal in the p.m. without wall-to-wall crowds on that Friday?

Were going May 15-21 hope the crowds are still light.
