Orlando Theme Parks(December)?

  • Going to: 18 december-Magic Kingdom 19 december-MGM Studios 20 december-Islands Of Adventure(Express pass) 21 december-Universal Studios Florida(Express pass) Questions: How will the crowds be like?(/10) Wait times for rides? Weather Wise? Is marriot Srpinghill Orlando(Vinehill Avenue) Convienient? Will i be fine?(wait times wise) Info: I have booked all the park tickets in advance so...i will still go in the park if it is at capacity

  • Answer:

    I was there last week and crowds were very heavy last Monday so I would expect them to be even worse this Monday. I would prepare for pretty bad crowds 7+ at the Disney parks. Be sure to make the best use of Fast Past to help avoid the lines. Universal crowds were extremely light last Tuesday but picked up towards the end of the weak. In Islands of Adventure the Harry Potter area is extremely popular so go there first thing. The rest of the park seems to have lighter crowds since everyone is in that one area. Weather look pretty good those days, highs in the upper 60's lower 70's. Just remember it gets chilly at night and in the early morning so dress accordingly. Just having a park ticket doesn't guarantee you entry if the park reaches capacity, so get there early.

Remember, just having ticket does not guarantee your entry so reach as early as possible. People start arriving early morning as the crowd increases and once the Parks reach their capacity doors will be closed. Accordingly wait times for ride will also increase. Whether wise it is cool, but as the parks will be heavily crowded it is good to wear light clothes in morning where as during night weather becomes cold. Yes, Marriot Srpinghill Orlando(Vinehill Avenue) is convenient, good.

The crowds will be fine on all those dates. Very non-peak times. Wait time for rides short, nothing more than twenty minutes. Your hotel choice is perfect if it isn't Disney property it is right on the edge. The weather is your biggest unknown. Its a crap-shot for weather, plan for the extremes. I usually recommend April or May for the best combination of low crowds and perfect weather. Here are the extremes we saw by month last year. So you can expect somewhere in the middle but notice how Dec has a pretty wide range of possible temperatures. Dec 2009 Actual Extremes: 39 - 84 (45 degree range) Jan 2010 Actual Extremes: 28 - 82 (52 degree range) Feb 2010 Actual Extremes: 37 - 77 (40 degree range) March 2010 Actual Extremes: 41 - 81 (40 degree range) April 2010 Actual Extremes: 55 - 87 (32 degree range) May 2010 Actual Extremes: 66 - 91 (24 degree range) Hope you enjoy your stay.
