Hey All!
I was wondering if someone that has been to Disney over Labor Day could give me a heads up on the crowd level. I am curious if it is crowded and if the days following are too. The resorts are rock bottom prices. Went last month on Xmas and will never do that again!
 
Pretty quiet :)

Let me see if I can find any photos that I know 100% were Labour Day.
 
Labor Day weekend can be a bit busy, but very manageable. Labor Day itself is the busiest. Free Dining is usually still going on during that time, so while the parks may not be overly crowded, the restaurants are packed. Be sure to make your ADRs early. After Labor Day the crowds disappear and the remainder of the week is one of the most pleasant times of the year to visit WDW.

If you've been exposed to the Christmas crowds, then Labor Day will be a breeze. :)
 
OK here's some pictures... I have taken a sample of 3 days Sunday, Monday (Labour Day) and Tuesday

As you can see it's pretty darned quiet.

Sunday Epcot:

You can see the crowd watching is minimal and this has to be around 2pm?

Need a table -- It's a tough choice!

Monday: Disney Studios

I was luckily able to get a seat on the horrendously busy bus from Port Orleans...

OK.. so my DH didn't like the show -- he didn't like the poking etc as he is ticklish LOL I couldn't resist posting this as you can see the standby time.

The parks were definitely do-able! But the All Star Resorts were a little crowded and rowdy...
 
We were there over Labor Day 2008. It was a great. We arrived Saturday of Labor Day and stayed for a week. The crowds did get less as the week went on but I wouldn't have called Labor Day weekend crowded. My biggest piece of advice would be go to Epcot on Labor Day, that park handles crowds the best. We went there during the day and then to DHS that night and at both parks we were able to get on the rides all except Toy Story Mania but that is to be expected. :goodvibes
