Hello and thanks for your recommendations! We are coming in on Black Friday, doing the MCP and going to the other three parks on Sunday, Mon and Tuesday. Any recommendations for how to assign those days park-wise? Not doing park hopper. Thank you in advance!!

Hi Tom – Our kids have winter college break from Dec 13 to Jan 11. What dates would be good for a week long vacation for 4 adults with less crowds, or is it all crazy busy at that time? Only other date option we have is from Nov 21 to 30th. Thanks for your help!

Do you know why the Walt Disney World Weekly Average Wait Time at https://www.thrill-data.com/waits/chain/wdw/#longaverages has the week of 11/24/25 with wait factor of 1? That was the week of Thanksgiving, which is supposedly busy. The week after that, which is supposedly light, had a wait factor of 4.

In reply to Chelsea.

I’m scheduled for 12/6-11th this year and starting my AP. My thoughts were the same for finishing with earlier dates in 2026.
My biggest challenge was finding resort availability. Really wanted Caribbean Beach or AoA for the skyliner, but nada. Ended up with Saratoga Springs … near DS and a boatride to French Quarter.

We’re going to Disneyworld this year for the first and part of the second week of December, thanks to your advice! We also became DVC last year, resale and direct, thanks to your articles too! We somehow managed to get the resorts and dates we hoped for. It’s a competitive time for DVC, likely because it’s a great time to go!

In reply to Danielle. I also would love to hear your thoughts on a good park schedule for that week, Tom. It's a challenge to find a night for Starlight and work around all the parties. We're taking our grandkids for their first trip and want them to experience as much as possible in the most effective way.
