Sadly it's always busy now. So I wouldn't really worry about how many people will be there cause that seems inevitably to be many, but make your decision more on the temperature aspect.
That is indeed a very good reasoning.
TBH I don't really mind the temperature that much as I'm used to both the heat and cold ( but being able to do water rides and go to water parks is a a nice bonus ).
Yes, the water parks will be well attended on sunny days in March
That's great to hear !
If its between this year and next I'd say take the opportunity to go this year. You havent been for 2.5 years, that is a long time in the Disney time frame of things, so there will be enough new things in place that will give you some thrills and feelings of a different Disney. Next year there will be more openings and changes which predictions are saying will make WDW even more crowded. If your concern is crowds, I dont think its going to get better, only worse, until Disney ( or the economy) does some dramatic changes to help ease the crowding and drop numbers.
Those are some very good points and the fact that so much has changed and so many good exciting things have been added has been the main fuel behind my desire to go.
Plus I get to do a solo trip which I may not be able to do again in the near future.
Your English seems fine to me! March is a great time to go. I've found the crowds to be lighter than in the summer. The weather is mild. Epcot has the flower and garden festival. Have fun!
Thank you for the compliment !
I'm especially excited to experience the flower and garden festival as I've never been to any kind of Epcot festival before.
Also I'd like to thank everyone in this thread for the huge help and support you guys provided me. I just booked my vacation today and can't wait to go.
I know things can get heated sometimes but you honestly form one of the best communities I've ever seen online and I'm very happy to become part of it.
So Disney Has busy times, days, seasons. The busiest season is christmas. The third week of Dec until Jan 3rd is very busy. The busiest day(s) are Christmas ever and Christmas Day. February is slower then most months. Everyone is back to school, working and less traveling. March is busy but not like Christmas. You will have wait times for the rides and attractions. March starts off spring break. Also universal has their Mardi Gras that started in Feb and that goes until April. So Disney will get over flow from universal. I'm going to be honest with you it will be crowded. If it's a really nice hot day, allot of people will be at one of the water parks. Not all people but some. Some people will be at Universal and Volcano Bay. If you really want to come down during those dates then come down. The Orlando area is not how you will remember it 2.5 years ago. it's changed. The highway has increased in size. All of the parks have new rides, attractions, lands. Disney Springs is something to see. Tons of restaurants, desert places, Huge AMC theater, several coffee places, lots of shopping. Water surrounds it. It a nice place to go have ice cream and sit or coffee. Don't be scared of the crowds. They don't bite. Ha ha. Orlando in general has allot going on in March not just Disney or Universal. Epcot is under renovations. it's been along time coming. Epcot use to be the theme park of the future. It's the future now and Epcot has been left behind. So Disney is spending allot of money on renovating Spaceship earth. Adding new rides. New attractions, new lands. Try not to get overwhelmed or be hesitant about coming down. If this is your last chance for this year then come down. Enjoy yourself. There is allot to do. My suggestion is for next year. Next year all of the Disney parks should be up and running without any renovations going on. September is a slow month just like Feb. I remember going to magic kingdom in September after Labor Day and standing in wait times of 10 mins max 20. We use to go in the rain because people down here are scared of the rain. People melt. Ha ha. During the fireworks everyone stands around. Splash mountain is usually never busy during the fireworks. You get on and get to watch the fireworks while splash mountain. If you can for next year book in advance. Just remember March until August is busy and can be crowded. Sept is slow. October during the day time can be slow but at night depends on which park because the magic kingdom has the kids halloween party that starts earlier every year. I think they start it early sept at night. November first two weeks is slower then the closer you get to thanksgiving gets busier. Then there is Christmas. The second week of dec is the slowest. Not much going on yet. Like kids are still in school, people are working. its little slower. After the second week its busy busy busy. Little down fall in Jan, Feb is slow. March is busy again. I know rambled on. Sorry. I hope something I said helps.
Thank you for the breakdown !
I've been keeping up with all the changes but you summary is amazing.
The Epcot transformation is something I'm really looking forward to. I'm happy that I'll get a chance to ride spaceship earth one last time before it's closure.
I'm also a huge fan of disney springs and can't wait to do the void experience ( hopefully it isn't booked full yet ).
Also those are some incredible tips and insight.
and no you didn't ramble on at all I enjoyed reading your post. It got me even more excited for my vacation. Everything you said is helpful whether be it for this vacation or for my next ones. It's really nice to meet people with passion such as yours.
If you ever want to discuss some of the changes that happened, are happening or will happen we can message each other as I also have a huge passion for theme parks.
and as things turn out I'll be able to go both this year and next year so I should be able to experience ratatouille, tron and GoTG soon during my next visit. And yes I will book in advance next year, It's just that this time life happened and I got an unexpected opportunity to go.
This time it's all bout Rise of the resistance and Hagrid's as those are 2 rides that I've been following ever since their announcement.
And I'm sorry for replying late, for some reason your post didn't show up until just now.
Also as a side question: Since I'm trying to ride RotR as many times as possible which method of transportation do you recommend ? will buses get me there early enough ?
and again a huge thank you .
