Which park, which day?

[titansfan]

Making my third trip to Orlando area, but this will be our first Disny Orlando trip. We went the Universal, Seaworld, Busch Gardens route the prior 2 trips.

We are planning on doing the Disney 7 day tickets plus waterparks and more option, which would give us 13 admissions during our 14 day stay. Planning on using 2 tickets a day, in other worlds, one of the major parks in the moring and one of the secondary attraction in the evening, or vice versa. This will hopefully give us 7 or 8 days of Disney and 6 or 7 days of relaxation (and hopefully golf for me).

We are renting a villa from June 16th-June 30th, which I know is probably one of the busier times in Disney, but was my only vacation opportunity this year.

My question, finally, is; Which parks are considered to be least crowded on which days and at what parrt of the day? Any experience and help with my itenary planning would be appreciated.[msncool]

We usually go this time in June and you will find the parks are reasonably quiet. I would recommend to get to your main park early before the crowds. We found we could walk on most for the first few hours. Also you don't have to wait long for your fast passes to come round so you can get loads done.

I would avoid going to the parks which are early opening for resort guests on that day. That means that the majority of resort guests will already be in when you arrive. A good day is the day before or the day after early opening.

I also think that the MK is very busy on a Saturday and Sunday. Also I think someone on here said the water parks can be too due to local kids going at the weekend.

The only other thing is to check when Fathers Day in the US is. It is in June sometime and we found ourselves in the Mk that day and it was heaving - we just left! Very hard to get a dinner reservation that day too!

I will DM you some links for the early opening times.

We have always found that the parks are busier at the weekend. This maybe downs to the locals but it maybe be down to people coming to Orlando just for the weekend.

The parks and shopping malls are always busier at the weekends, and we have found the water parks and IoA being particularly busier with teenagers. Locals will use be some of the numbers, plus many US visitors will go for a 3 or 4 day break, often over a weekend as they get much less holidays than we do in Europe.
