another question about preference About This Page:

[Chuckles]

Do you tend to always go at the same time(s) of year or does it vary? And is it because of preference or necessity or both?

[chezp]

We tend to vary, but between three times of the year, because each has something extra to offer - Christmas for all the events and decorations, October time for the Food and Wine Festival and Halloween Party or early spring, before it gets too hot, for the Flower and Garden Festival. We would never go in the summer, as it's way too hot for us then.

[TMWIlson7196]

We very sort of. Dec because of Christmas decorations.We have gone 3 times then. We are going in 28 days. First time going in Aug. for free dining.

[Muffinator]

Ours is Necessity. My time off doesn't vary very well, and the one time I was able to take a vacation in a different time, I had to request it a year in advance (and there were still problems). We're usually stuck to the first few days of September right around Labor Day.

[home4us123]

We tend to vary. We have been in Feb. and November. Now this year we are going in August/Sept. From this time on I imagine most of our trips will be over the summer or school vacations.

[srsatkowiak]

I prefer to go in the fall because the price is just right and "free dining" is a plus. Also it is a time to celebrate my birthday and our wedding anniversary.

However I don't mind going in the value winter months either. I want to go at christmas time with DH one of these years.

So basically it comes down to cost and vacation availability that is usually best for us in the Fall.

[ferrazalves]

We try to vary, however most related to personal needs and oportunities....this time we are going in nov-dec (DD Bday), next year I´ll have a conference in may, so we will take the oportunity and go again...
We only try to skip high-season - specially July....

[krisk11]

If I had my way I would go in October every year as it is a great time of year to be in WDW. Unfortunately with my dd is school we have to go in the summer now.

[lura008]

This is our second year to go in Sept for Labor Day and FD. I don't mind taking DD out of school a couple of days. Its worth it to us because of the FD and the crowds are so much better than visiting during the Spring like we use to do. If there is a way, from now on we prefer to go during a value season and especially the FD.

[Tracy M.]

We always go during the off season usually in September though we did go one year in December to see Disney at holiday season. No matter what time of year someone likes to visit Disney they should take at least one trip in December at some point because of how special Disney is at Christmas time.

[5SOXFNZ]

We traditionally go the first week in December but this year went in June due to the buy 4 get 7 deal and Dh's vacation schedule. Hopefully when the economy turns around his company mandated vacation weeks will end and we can go back to the December date we like better.

[markandtrish]

Both times we have gone has been the Monday before Mother's day, in May, for that whole week, and that is when we are planning to go again. The weather at that time of year seems to be pretty close to perfect for us. Very little rain, not too hot or crowded just overall pleasant and we have had the pleasure of the Flower and Garden Festival both times. I have to say, though, at some point I would love to Disney at Christmas. The pics I have seen look beautiful.

[jimmymac]

I used to go in October when I was single. I met DW on a WDW trip and our first trip togeher was the first week in December for Christmas visit, and we go back the same time every year now. If we can slip in another trip, that's a bonus

[coasties]

Necessity b/c the DD's are in school. We choose Aug. for value season and school being out.

[ArielsMomto2]

Summer because of school schedules. Mainly August.
