Well, I know for sure that Mondays are usually the MOST crowded at the Magic Kingdom, so try not to go to the Magic Kingdom on a Monday. Hope that helps...

I would suggest that mid week is quieter as at weekends you will generally have the local residents visiting.

I totally agree DisneyWonder07... Monday's at the Magic Kingdom are brutal!! And I really am not sure why. I will keep that in mind when planning my trip this year!

gotta agree w/ you there the parks are packed w/ locals on the weekends
Yeah here is my proposed schedule
MARCH 17TH-22ND
MON 17TH- Getting to orlando International at 950 have to pick up my rental and will prob be by my hotel around 1130-1230 hoping to check in get my passes and head to epcot for the remainer of the day
TUES 18th- Go to MK
WED 19TH- go to MGM
THU 20TH- Going to islands of adventure
Fri 21st- Go back to whichever park MGM, MK EPCOT etc that we didnt get to do everything we wanted to.
SAT 22ND - HAVE A 8PM flight so either go back to a park for a half day or hang around and swim
-- Does this sound like a decent plan to attack the parks pending the expected smaller crowds during those days of the week? The march hours really stink so i wanted to make sure i went to the parks on there expected least crowded dates to see all the attractions thanks for the input :sohappy:

There are two reasons Monday is the busiest day of the week for the Magic Kingdom (Saturday is very busy also).
Many people arrive on Disney Property at some point in time on Sunday and spend that day settling into their resort and just relaxing. Then because the Magic Kingdom is the park that many people remember from their childhood, it becomes the first park they visit during their vacation.
The other reason has to do with Disney Cruise Lines. Some folks start their cruise packages on Monday at the parks and then depart on their Ships on Thursdays. Other folks start their vacation aboard the ships and then return to land and WDW on Sunday in the Afternoon. Again, in either case, people generally pick Magic Kingdom to visit first for nostalgic reasons.
