    We've run the gamut - from 3 nights/4 days to (what is becoming our norm) 10 nights/11 days.

    The shorter trips have been either 'spur of the moment' or rented DVC points trips and just haven't seemed like enough to make it worthwhile....

    Can't wait until mid-September and our next 10 night trip!!

    Our longest was 9 days, & our shortest was our first trip at 5 days, this year it will be 8 days. We definitely enjoy the longer trips, more down time. We really enjoy when we can take a day off mid trip just to relax & recharge!

    My most recent trips have been 4-6 nights, but I've never done anything longer than a week. I really want to do a week to 10 days sometime soon, but I don't know when that is going to happen.

    We usually do six days- Sun-Fri, to use less DVC points then go back a second time for another 5 or 6 days. So although we do 6 days we go 2X per year so I guess we actually do 12 days per year.

    Stayed as long as 6 days, but my usual trips are 3 days at the parks with a half-day for travel on either end.

    It's been over 20 years since I was able to take more than a week of vacation at one time. Job and cash-flow dictate short bursts of time off.

    But, I'm lucky to be able to go at all .

    We used to go for a week, but with the MYW ticket prices for 10 days being so reasonable, we can stay longer.

    Our longest was 12 nights this past Nov., and our shortest was a 2 night stay as a surprise to our children after our vacation at Disney's Vero Beach resort. Most of our trips, however, fall in the 7-10 night range.

    Cool

    We normally do 8 days in WDW. DW and I try to get a couple of days, just the two of us (when possible) and a longer trip with the family.

    We have tried as short as 4nights/5days and as long as 9 nights/10 days but we actually prefer 7nights/8days or 8nights/9days. Any more than that and we start to miss our dogs! We also somehow just don't want to be there anymore at that point - we are ready to go home.

    We usually do 9 or 10 days now. We started out with 4-5, moved up to 7, then up to the current number.
