We were there another 2 weeks after that and it became quite quiet as most of the Spring Breaks finished.

Last year, my county had the Easter holidays after Easter itself. We flew to Florida on April 6th and it was much quieter than the previous year. On our first day I spoke to someone who said that the previous week they had queued for an hour just to get into the park. We had just 4 families in front of us in the queue.

I personally would go in April again if Easter itself was in the March

am hoping that is the case we fly next Monday and really worried

Typhoon Lagoon, Blizzard Beach and MK have all been closed today due to capacity. Think MK has opened again though.

Busy!

We went in mid-March - got into HS about 9.15AM and the FastPass line for Toy Story was **huge**. A CM told us the the FastPasses for the day would be gone before they got to the end of the line and that happened most days.

She wrote that she went and spoke nicely to customer services(?) and it was resolved.

When someone asked what the resolution was she said that she got a refund and left for Universal. Think she American so maybe she only had a day ticket, but I've not heard of that before.
Way back in Oct 1995, we went on a Sat and the crowds were terrible, when we left there were loads of Americans all queuing for refunds

WOW! Friends are out there at the mo... we've never been at any of the parks when it's been hectic!

We're out in a week and only plan to do a couple of parks so hopefully the crowds would have died down a bit.

Just don't wait until the last minute if you need a restroom break. Imagine the length of the queues there

We go in three weeks. It'll be OK by then (fingers crossed)
