This is somewhat similar to the How many days for you thread:
http://forums.wdwmagic.com/threads/how-many-days-for-you-part-9.874329/

But instead, share below how many days you usually go to Walt Disney World! Usually, for my family we go for either 7 or 8 days. We split it up like this: (This is for the last trip we took).

Day 1: Epcot
Day 2: Magic Kingdom
Day 3: Discovery Cove
Day 4: Sea World
Day 5: Disney's Hollywood Studios
Day 6: Blizzard Beach
Day 7: Disney's Animal Kingdom
Day 8: Magic Kingdom

Our usual in the Summer is 7 days and 8 nights, but we've stayed as long as 10 and as few as 5. Since we drive we like to close out the parks, pack, and head out early the next morning. No matter how many days we have booked we add an extra night.

In the Parks
No
Usually arrive Wednesday and do some resort hopping...Thurs, Fri, Sat & Sun would be park days. It's the norm for us to end our trip at Animal Kingdom. When my DD was younger and we travelled during spring break, we would arrive Tuesday. Wed Thur Fri Sat would be park days and Sunday would be downtown Disney.

14 days at least, it's a long way from the UK ;)

Manage to do all Disney parks, Universal Parks and Seaworld with a water park day in between each park day. And of course one day shopping at Premium Outlets!

10 is ideal for us to spend 2 days at MK, 1 or 2 at Epcot, 1 at HS & AK, time at Universal, Water parks and Downtown Disney and spend a day relaxing at our resort.

But our trip in a couple days was shortened to one week:

Day 1: DTD & MK
Day 2: EPCOT
Day 3: Typhoon Lagoon
Day 4: MK
Day 5: AK or EPCOT
Day 6: HS
Day 7: DTD

We go for 14 days. We do a lot of hopping so it goes something like this: 5 full days at Epcot, 3 days at MK, and when we visit either HS or AK we always hop when we are done and spend the rest of the day at DTD, back to another park or offsite looking around.

We've done 4, 5, 6, and 7 day visits. Seven was pretty great, we felt satisfied and ready to go home. Four days is a great little getaway but it only whets the appetite for more visits!
For the shortest stay, we only did two parks. For the week long stay we had a resort day in the middle.

We usually do 7 nights/8 days. We drive from PA (2 days). Our last trip went like this:

Day 1: Arrived around noon. Checked into resort and then went to EP for a few hours. Back at resort by 8:00 to unpack and get to bed.
Day 2: RD @ EP. Stayed until about 5:00. Back to resort for dinner and swimming.
Day 3: RD @ AK. Stayed until about 4:00. Back to resort for dinner. Left resort around 6:30 to head to Boardwalk area. Spent some time walking around that area and exploring resorts there. Illuminations cruise.
Day 4: RD @ MK. Returned to resort @ 2:00 to escape the crowds and heat. Spent a few hours swimming and then headed back to MK for late dinner and rides during 1st parade and fireworks. Watched MSEP @ 11:00 and then back to the resort around midnight.
Day 5: Slept in. Lunch at a resort. Some of us went to MK for the afternoon and some went to DTD and then all went swimming at the resort. Went to DHS for Fantasmic.
Day 6: RD @ DHS. Early dinner and then back to resort. Returned to MK for a few rides and Wishes.
Day 7: Slept in. Late breakfast and shopping at DTD. Back to resort to pack up. Off to DHS for a few rides and then over to MK for a few more rides. Back at resort by 9:30.
Day 8: On the road by 6:30 a.m.

This is a typical schedule for our trips.

Never less than 15, usually around 20 days. This time we're doing 24 full days and 2 travel days. Anything less than 10 days is not worth it to us since we pay around $2,100 in airfare for 2.

We always go for 3weeks at a time.We have a long trip to the world so we make it worth it. We spend 10 days at the theme parks and the rest at the water parks or hanging out at the resort.
