Yikes, WDW the week before Easter

[POR05]

Does any one have suggestions for those who are travelling to WDW the week before Easter (Saturday to Wednesday). It sounds like the crowds could make it difficult. Any advice would be GREATLY appreciated.

That's when my family and I are going. March 22-27th. I too am wondering how bad the parks will be?

We are going then too, for our 1st time! From the 19 - 23. Where are you staying? We are staying at POP. We are just going to assume the worst about crowd size and hope for the best. I have waited my whole life to go to Disney and now I get to see if for the first time with my 5 yr old dd. Crowds or not, we are going to have the time of our lives!

No advice, see you all there. We're going 3/22-3/28.

We go every year at Easter. It will be very crowded, however, the MK and MGM are usually open quite late. Be sure to go to the second showing of Fantasmic, Spectro, etc. The first showing is extremely crowded and people line up hours before. Make PS early -- especially for Easter Sunday dinner. We usually go to the parks early and then leave around Noon when it gets extremely crowded. We return around dinner time and stay until the parks close. The waterparks can get filled to capacity by 10:30 am (depending on the weather). It is crowded, but plan carefully and you should have a great time.

We've been twice the week before Easter. Very crowded. If you are staying onsite, be sure to hit the parks with the early opening. Do your "must do" rides early, head back to your hotel around lunch time for a swim, then go to a different park in the evening for shows, dinner, shopping, etc. Have fun!
