Hmmm, August is busy, but because of the long park hours, we find it far more manageable than Halloween, Christmas or Easter. The key is to use EMH and stay late (maybe taking a break in the middle of the day).

We went August weekend last year, and it was not as bad as other times of the year. Worst was Big Thunder at 2 hours (we used fast pass) and Crush at 90 minutes (we went the end of the day where the wait was 20). Most things were 25 minutes or so, and PotC, star Tours, Phantom Manor and It's a Small World were about 15. So it is manageable.

The other thing we do for sanity is we book lunch in a table service for about 2:30 - great break and great service.

Hi, Were arriving about 5pm on Tuesday 5th April so we should have about 3 hrs that day.  We then have 2 full days before going home.  Is it really busy then or quiet.  Do you think it will be enough time to do most of it.  Any answers very much appreciated.   Only 9 sleeps

It should hopefully not be too bad. No schools are off as far as I am aware. Even the next week, only the UK, Paris schools (but not many others in France) and some Spanish and Italian schools are off. Not the others though!

We are going 29 May 2011 for 5 nights.  How busy is it likely to be as after we booked we realised it's a PH in France and also I think the English Half Term.

Going on 30th May for 3 nights-was sure the british school holidays was week before, as we normally go on holidays this week!! How wrong was I?? Think I remember that it was a holiday in France on the Thursday only though!

Monday June 13th?  We have the choice of going Sat, Sun, or Monday the 11-13.  The guide listed a ways back did not mention this as a holiday but my husband's German co-workers say it is a European holiday.  Anyone know?  Thanks!

What are the queues likely to be like in 2 weeks time, ie. Monday 16th - Wednesday 18th May? Eurostar is packed, which doesn't bode well.

As far as I know Monday 13th June is Whit Monday and is a holiday for most of Europe. We booked in Jan for June 9th to 14th. Does anyone have an idea of how busy it will be over Whit weekend for rides with a 3 year old?
