I have read a few posts now that go something like this:
"October is nuts, don't go"
"October is the absolute worst"
"Avoid October at all costs.."
So naturally.. I'm freaking out. We are booked at DLH for 7 nights in mid October. 5 full park days. We have genie+ and we will do OBB on a non park day. We chose the dates because (like most) the kids have a few days off school. Our other option would be Labor Day, but I don't want to do the first OBB party.. and we would start the trip before Halloween officially started which I don't want.
We've always done the parks at busy times. Our first trip was Christmas break, parks at capacity. Had an amazing trip. We had 3 days and did so much, not everything but enough.
We did 4th of July 2019 and thanksgiving 2018.
I'm a planner, I make the reservations, I learn the strategies, I use mobile ordering. Over 5 trips to both disneyland and DisneyWorld, I've never had a bad park day. We also plan to take full advantage of early entry for resort guests which should be back by October if Disney sticks to its word.
So- is October so bad that we move the trip to September? Or should I just ignore these comments and stick to my planning?
