Vacations : Disney World – When is the Best and the Worst Time to Go?

By : Abigail Peony

The Disney World in Orlando is one place in the world that never faces an off-season. This place is always brimming with smiling, screaming and bright faces. However, it is to be remembered that the school vacation time, that is late May, mid December, long weekends or the spring break is never the ideal time for a Disney world vacation. This is because the Disney vacation can be enjoyed the most when the place is the least crowded and the weather is pleasant.

Vacations at Disney World seems to be a place that full of bright faces, smiling, and screaming. To maximize your vacations at Disney World, you should observe the best time to go. When is the best and the worst time? Here are some general recommendations to follow.

The worst time to go

is late May, mid December, long weekends, and the spring break is never could be the ideal time for vacations at Disney World. The crowd guests will certainly affect the convenient of your enjoyment. The school spring break just before and after Easter is one of the most terrible times for the visit. During such season, the crowds are beyond imagination, the traffic is unusual and the huge lines and queues are simply intolerable. The summer and December holidays are also one of the avoidable times of the year, as many outstation candidates flock to the Disney world Orlando during this time. However, if you stay at Disney World Hotel, you’ll get theme park admission guaranteed.

The summer would be also one of the worst times to go, considering the excruciating heat, and oppressive humidity. Along with it, you should concern the ‘love bug’ (the small fly look-a-likes who are totally bothering during the months of September and may. So, these reasons may give you little considerations why not having vacations at Disney World on peak seasons.

The best time to go

is the Thanksgiving, The week following the Thanksgiving till the mid of December or the few weeks before spring vacations in school, and the Labor Day would be the best time to have vacations at Disney World. And of course, as we all know, if you visit Disney World Resort during off-season, the hotels will offer you a slightly cheaper rate than peak season.

Disney World Vacation : FASTPASS – No More Waiting in Lines!

By: Abigail Peony

Stressed out waiting in line while having Disney World Vacation? Getting bored and frustrated waiting in line and wasting so much time at only one ride? By waiting in line, you are certainly wasting your time and can’t get on as many rides as possible at Disney World.

Don’t you know that you can pass all the lines with one Disney Facility called FASTPASS? Yes, you have to learn this magic machine and know how to use it well.

What is Fastpass really? It’s a free service machine that allows you to help you pass the line. Let’s say, you want to take a ride, and see that many people are waiting in line. There is no reason you should blend yourself in line and wasting valuable time there.  You can come to Fastpass machine and simply insert your ticket and get your Fastpass ticket. Your return time will be written on the Fastpass ticket. For instance, if you get Fastpass ticket at 10.30 am, your returning time will be something like 11.00 – 11.50 (to make sure, just read your return time)

I still don’t understand why many people don’t use this service. Please don’t be afraid to use this FREE service during your Disney World Vacation. It can save you much time and makes your vacation at Disney World become more efficient. In addition, in the Universal Studios, they also have a similar service like this called Express Ticket.

Now that you know what Fastpass is, here are 5 Tips to use Fastpass effectively:

1.   Use Fastpass facility at your favorite rides. Go to another ride then come back before time expires (expiry time at Fastpass ticket) and ride twice in a row or once at Tower of Terrors then Rock and Roller coaster with no wait. Works best in the morning.

2.   If you want to ride a FastPass ride but couldn’t get a FastPass and the Standby lines are too long during the day, get in line within a half hour before park closing.  Two reasons for this: (1) Disney policy is that anyone in line at park closing gets to ride, even if they don’t get on until after the official closing time, and (2) there will be very few FastPass riders entering (none after closing), so the actual wait time will be MUCH shorter than the posted Standby time.

3.   Get as many Fastpass as you can during the day. You certainly can manage which ride comes first and which one is going to be your priority. You may not use it all, for some rides that overlap your priority ride, you can trade with someone that are waiting in line for a ride, or just give it freely.

4.   Arrive at the park early (let’s say 9 am) and get Fastpass for major and desirable rides. Until the returning time, you can ride the other uncrowded major rides (that soon will definitely be crowded at something like 10 am). Estimate your returning time and come back in time for your Fastpass rides. Here you can save much time and experience many rides.

5.   If you want to ride something twice on your Disney World Vacation, pull a Fastpass and get in the standby line. It is better if you do this early at the opening park when rides are usually still not crowded. And the second ride, you can use your Fastpass ticket.
