I haven't been this year, but from what I've read elsewhere the reason Magic Kingdom in particular was much much busier this year is because a lot of people has to reschedule their September trips due to hurricane Irma

Last two trips ( 2014/2016 ) were both in October and found the crowds not too bad, however next year we have booked the first two weeks in November to get that Xmas feeling..

Just come back from first two weeks and we always go at this time.
It has got a lot busier I'm afraid as food and wine is getting more popular.
The weather can be off too one minute it was red hot next monsoon rain and thunder and lightning.
The best time i think is first two weeks of Dec for crowds at the end of the year and the weather is more stable but we like Oct for Halloween and food and wine and in that case the first two weeks are a little quieter than the last two.

I agree last year was quieter but this year wasn't they had a knock on effect from hurricane and people due then rebooked for first two weeks in october making it alot busier than normal im hoping next year is quieter.

We came back at the weekend and found it extremely busy compared with when we hace been in the past. Queues for rides were lonf do you really gad to make the most of your fastpass.
We are limited as to when to go as for taking our son out of school but said we would not do October again which is a shame.

We came back last Saturday, this was our first time in Oct (last 2weeks) and it was far busier than I expected. Having went in September last time, it felt much busier that Sept...nothing horrendous, but its the first time I have seen 2hr waits for Hollywood Tower ride etc..
