Help please - Best school holiday to visit Florida
We are due to go in August and although I was trying to stay positive, I am also now looking at moving the holiday when I can (at the moment I need to pay a fee)
I am looking at moving it to: February half term May half term Easter Or do I stick to the summer holidays If anyone has been at any of them times could you let me know your pros and cons please? We have been summer holidays a few times and it’s very hot but we do manage it. We went Easter for our very first visit but the fastpasses were old paper style. Thank you

I have always gone May half term, perfect week for weather and crowd levels

We went in feb half term this year. Can be mixed weather but we had it quite warm, around 26 degree's c which is just perfect for us . We had one cold day where we stayed at the hotel. Crowds quite high around presidents weekend, but manageable for us. Only downside for us, even though we love Feb time, our kids only get 1 week off school so you either limit yourself to that, or take kids out of school for a few days (what we did). Good luck xx

If you think you can tolerate August, I would go then. Primarily though as it gives things longer to return to normal.

another vote for May, its our favourite time to go, weather is usually hot but not august levels, usually around late 20s early 30s and the crowd levels arent too bad either.

We went in February this year although I think Scottish school holidays were a wee bit earlier. We did the 8th to the 15th. Onsite at Universal. Weather was great, crowd levels were great but it was starting to get busy just as we left for Presidents Day. Here's a link to my trip report here
We went before Easter last year, it was great as well, we only had one day at Disney and it was as busy as our normal July trips, weather again was great. Trip report link here We've also done Christmas holidays, absolutely amazing but pretty busy - disney only. Weather again was great but I think we were lucky. Trip report link here July is our normal time, we don't get a May half term, our holiday has been cancelled, we are not ready to rebook yet but I'd do a week in February again in a heartbeat, or July or we might try October for Halloween.
