Looking for some reassurance.
We are staying at the Contemporary for 9 nights mid-August and have the dining plan. My husband absolutely hates the idea of being tied down with dining reservations. We are so scheduled during our regular lives and for us a vacation means no schedules. Our kids are 20 and 17 and don't care about character dining (not opposed to it, just don't care). We also like to eat either very early, like 4:30 pm or else late, like 9:30 or 10:00 pm. The crowd calendars that I'm looking at show the parks to be anywhere from 4's to 6's out of 10 the entire time we are there. Do we really, really need to book reservations? Yesterday was the first day I could start booking. We were at WDW in August in 2014 and I cancelled all of my reservations before we got there for the same reason stated above. We were still able to eat everywhere we wanted just by walking in when we were ready. The crowds in 2014 for the same time in August were all 10/10 so if these things are accurate, it should not be as busy.
Thoughts??
