Starting to toss around timing for our 2020 visit. Aiming to not miss school, our options are:
Easter week
June
July (not the holiday week).
We have been during Easter many times - I’d go if it was the only time that works for our large group, but it’s not my preference.
We have been during the first week of June once and I honestly only remember that it’s hot - nothing about crowds, and it was probably too long ago to compare crowds anyways. One of the only months we’ve never visited WDW is July.
It looks like there is a significant drop in crowds historically when comparing June and July. I don’t put a lot of faith in crowd calendars, and we manage large crowds just fine, but if there is a trend that July is a little less crowded, I think we’d give it a shot.
Heat doesn’t bother us - we’ve been in August and September. My only fear about July is being a little further into hurricane season, but at least it is not peak hurricane season like September.
Are there any people who typically go or have gone in July? What are your thoughts about it? Is it really considered a slower time than June?
