Disney World Crowds - How To Dodge Bottlenecks

Avoiding Disney World crowds takes some work. If you do a little homework, it gets easier. Here are 5 tips to escape crowds.

Disney World Number One -

Get there early - Come on sleepyheads pop out of bed. Mickey rewards early birds with short lines and uncrowded streets. The first hour of any day is the least busy in all of the Walt Disney World parks.

As the day starts, guests continue to arrive and Disney crowds continue to expand until late in the afternoon or early evening. Crowds will start to thin out some as the evening moves along. For example, the quene at Expedition Everest first thing in the morning will be 10 minutes or less. By lunch, on most days, that line will reach more than one hour.

It's been said "The Early Bird gets the Worm". I don't know about worms, but the early bird at WDW almost has the parks to themselves.

Number Two -

Extra Magic Hours - If you are sleeping at a Disney Hotel, take advantage of Disney's Extra Magic Hours. This is the program that lets Disney World Resort visitors access to the parks one hour before the official opening time or up to three hours after the park officially closes. This can really help miss long lines at well-known rides.

Every day one of the Disney World parks, including the water parks, participates in Extra Magic Hours. Disney allows guest in early or let's them stay late and ride the most popular rides in the park.

Number Three -

Know when to use Fastpass. A few years ago Disney initiated a program to ease the length of time guests wait in line. It is called Fastpass. This program allows a ticket holder to skip long lines of people via an alternative entrance.

There are situations when Fastpass doesn't save you any time or the return time will conflict with other plans you might have. If the "Standby" line at an Fastpass attraction (they all have a clock showing Standby line times) has a wait time of lower that 30 minutes, getting a FastPass probably won't save you any time. Go ahead and ride, or grab a ticket, ride the ride, and come back and ride it all over again later.

Fastpass is offered to for all Disney World guests and, here's the best part...

It's absolutely free.

Number Four -

Select a slower time to visit - There are a handful of months when WDW crowds are less intense. Usually these months are when there are no school holidays. As an example, mid-January to the end of February, and again in late August until Thanksgiving. During these months crowds are more compact the pace in the Disney World parks is more comfortable and the restaurants are more obtainable.

An additional benefit to visiting during slower times of the year is that Disney frequently offers special, decreased, rates.

Number Five -

Have a plan - You can save a lot of time, and evade WDW crowds, if you identify where you are going and have a plan to get around the parks. Simply, do your homework. (If you're reading this that's probably what your doing.)

Choose your eating places early and plan your trip around your meals. You can make Advanced Dining Reservations 180 days before to arrival for most Walt Disney World restaurants.

Your family can have a lot of fun planning a Disney World escape together.
