    Hi,

    It's about 4 years since we went at begining of June. But I seem to remember that the Parks were quite comfortable. Certainly not as busy as Easter or the height of Spring Break, which was a couple of weeks ago. In fact that's when I'm going next year - so I hope I'm right!

    Our first ever trip to Florida was End May Beginning June.

    We loved it at this time, weather really hot too. [msncool]

    The Parks were as busy as normal. Having been a few more times to Florida since, the crowds always seem to be about the same.

    Only time I can say its been unbearable is MK on Xmas Day

    Great time to go..... As always get in early and get the fast pass system going and you will be able to make so much more of your day.

    Lovely time of the year to go, but parks can be busy as it is the start of the American school holidays.

    Until last year we usually went at this time of year. We liked it, hot but not off the scale. Last year for the first time we arrived at rope drop which saves masses of time. You can get a few major rides done before the crowds arrive. As it will be fairly busy it would be a great time saver. We have been there for 2 memorial days (there have been more but I can't remember them!) THe first one was really quiet in the park we were in so we assumed it would be like that for the next one we were there for. How wrong we were!

    we went that time last year and are planning it again for next year. lovely weather and we didnt find the parks too busy. the only ride we had trouble with was the mgm toy story one but that was because we went on the day it actually opened, we didnt realise that before we got there!!! good time of year to go i think

    I am assuming here that you have children that you have to take out of school ?
    My preferred option would be the last weeks in May... for two reasons

    1. 3rd week of May is very quiet, 4th week is busier but not too bad
    2. if taking the kids out of school that last week of the term is less productive than the first week of term

    As you will imagin, we always take the last 2 weeks of May (except this year as son has SATS exams this year).
