WDW Crowd attendance Starting Jan2?

[BigmacX]

People, I am planning my next trip to Orlando next January. This is the first time I go to Orlando so early in the year, my plan is going Jan 2 -7.

Are the crowds big or light on this dates in the Orlando Disney parks?

Crowds are usually on the lighter side then. The holiday rush is done and everyone is pretty much back at work/school.

I would reccoment checking out www.touringplans.com/BestDays.htm
It ranks what parks are bussiest on what days. Its not perfect, but its a reasonable enough guidline. I check it before every visit.

Heh. It sais Epcot is the park to go to on Oct 19th. And wouldn't you know it... that's the day I'll be just there!

My second trip to WDW was in Jan. The parks were not busy at all. Also that is when many DL CM's go to WDW since they get very good deals for Jan.

i think that january-februaryish is when they plan the new princess and pirate event at the MK. the crowds are usually way down after the holiday rush. most people will be leaving the 2nd or 3rd.

That's great news.
When do school period starts in the States?
I know that in Puerto Rico the school period starts on Jan 9 2007, our X'mas are two weeks longer than in the States.


So this is great news for me and of course my 7 y/o son in law on his 1st visit to WDW.
