Couple 1st Time Travel to Florida

Hi everyone!
Just looking for a bit of advice off you all - Myself and my partner are in our late 20s and are looking to rebook (again! ) our Florida trip with Tui.

We have to do this a month before we travel to change it for free and time is ticking

When would be best to re book for 2022 as we don't want huge crowds ideally and not travelling with kids so flexible with time of the year

I don't think we'd want to go January as would ideally like it to still be a bit warmer - Any advice welcomed!

(We have late April in mind but not sure how that works best with school holidays in UK/USA)

Welcome

Late April/early May is good if you're looking for lower crowds and nice weather. It'll be warm but not too rainy yet. September is the quietest time of year but it's very hot and peak storm season. I'd take the higher (but still moderate) crowds of May for the better weather alone.

October is fab too but maybe too far away
Kind of envious of you going for the first time... remember mine listening to people going on and on about how great and amazing it was and i was kinda throwing my eyes up to heaven. Had only agreed to go cause DH was really keen
Anyway over 11 trips later the rest is history and our 2 girls are total addicts too
Hopw the plans work out well this time you will have a fab trip

Before March, one of Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard beach is generally shut for maintenance.

April (Easter) is fab as lower humidity and loads of heat.. but along with that, loads of people.

May/June has low humidity, loads of heat and lower crowds than Easter.

July August there seems to be plenty of Humidity with the heat and it can IMHO be unpleasant. You can also get a fair bit of torrential rain and park suspensions.

I have never been between October and January, so have no opinion to offer.

Conclusion.. May/June as School Hols are not a factor. All water parks open, heat without humidity and lower crowds!

Last week of April/1st week of May will be perfect as the Spring break and Easter crowds will be gone.

September, US schools all back and the British contingent all back home. Weather still very hot but parks a little quieter for the first 2/3 week.

Hi,

We love the end of September beginning of October. Weather is fantastic, crowds are manageable plus you have the food and wine festival at Epcot and Halloween celebrations have begun. For us it’s the perfect time.

Avoid U.K. school holidays as those make the flight prices higher.

Avoid US school holidays as they make the hotel prices higher (not always the same as ours, so I wouldn’t be going in June for that reason).

I would choose late September / early October or late April / May for nice (hot!) weather out of those times

As mentioned late April early May are quite low in crowd levels. Last time we visited first week in May , just DH and I , we only did universal but both days were literally walk ons . We do like to be there for park opening too, then afternoon at pool 😉
