So here's the story...
Before my wife and I even thought about going to WDW this year, we planned a trip to North Carolina with family last fall. Half the house is already paid for and we cannot cancel it. Nor do I want to cancel on my family. So here's the thing:
So we've been thinking about this WDW trip for a while and thinking about when would be best to go. Originally we were thinking May, but that's really too soon for us as we need more time to save money. Then we've been thinking October for a while. But yesterday I figured out that it would be cheaper to go in September or even in December. We'll be half way to Florida in NC. So here's what all of this comes down to:
Has anyone gone in different times in September? We are thinking of two options: Go from North Carolina directly to WDW (since we'll already be half-way there) or later in the month to spread it out a little. That's either Labor Day weekend and the following week or maybe 2 or 3 weeks later. (Sunday to Saturday)
Does anyone know anything about crowd levels that time of year? What would be the better time to go to avoid crowds? Early, mid, or late September? Weather? What's it like over Labor Day weekend? (That's when it would be if we went directly from NC.) Good time or bad time to go?
Any help/advice/thoughts are appreciated. Thanks!
