End October/November?

What’s Orlando / parks / weather like?

I’ve only ever been for Easter and I as we may have to reschedule our trip in 10 days due to corona etc and I’m wondering about this time of year instead? (Not that you can guarantee it’ll be over by then). Probably October half term and the 2 weeks after it.

Humid at all? Is it still summer busy then?

We’ve done Disney the last week in October, the weather was great and as soon as Halloween decorations came down Christmas started to go up so you got two celebrations in one. Would definitely go that time of year again.
Really hope you don’t have to reschedule though 🤞🏻

We did a week over October half term.
The weather was great, not humid and it was definitely quieter than Easter which is the only other time of year we,ve been.

We have booked that time to go next year as we wanted to do Halloween and see the Christmas decorations. Flying out on the 25th October for three weeks.

We did late October, early November just gone. We previously only did May, June & July. We had about 3 or 4 really hot humid days right around Halloween, it was like July! Taxi drivers, staff etc said it was so unusual for the time of year. Immediately after those few days it cooled right off and it was crazy to see the locals in jackets & hats etc, it was just perfect T-shirt weather for us

The crowds were so low at parks, I really enjoyed this time of year and would love to go again but as DD's only get a week off school/uni the most we can do is 10 days.

I went end October/early November last year, mainly as I was doing the Wine and Dine races.

Halloween was in full swing end October - went for MNSSHP - all Halloween decorations up.
Almost overnight at the start of November (November 2 or 3) MK transformed into Christmas.
From November 8 onwards it was Christmas season at MK/DHS/AK, Epcot wasn’t quite Christmassy yet at that time though. Also some Christmas stuff doesn’t start until later in November (gingerbread houses, Festival of the Holidays...).

It was a nice way of seeing two seasons at WDW!

Weather wise - first few days incredibly hot and humid, it was basically summer weather. Almost overnight it changed to nice and cool (just in time for the races). Remainder was a balance between cool and summer weather. I think I had a cardigan with me but don’t think I used it much, probably just a couple of times on occasion.

I went 31 Oct to 12 Nov in 2018 for Halloween and Christmas parties, it was hot and busy! Still loved it but will stick to February next time I go!
