MORE ON WALT DISNEY WORLD ITINERARIES

This page brings to one place links to itineraries for Walt Disney World and other related stuff on this site. 

It’s part of a series on navigating this site.

The site recommends an 8 night itinerary for every week of the year, usually about six months out.

It also provides a few longer and shorter itineraries, guidance on crafting your own itineraries, and other helpful material such as a guide to Disney World rides.

You can find links to all of this below.

My sister’s family is planning a trip Feb 16-23, 2013 but will be staying at a timeshare near the parks rather than at a Disney resort. Do you have itineraries built for those NOT staying at a resort who want to avoid the times when resort folks have special access that might cause crowding?

Hi Jaynee, I don’t, but you can easily modify my recommended itinerary for that week (here: https://yourfirstvisit.net/planning-your-first-family-trip/basic-itinerary/alternative-itineraries/itineraries-for-the-rest-of-the-year/v2-of-2009-autumn-winter-spring-itinerary/ ) by swapping Monday and Friday.

That’s gonna be a very busy week, and openings may get earlier so keep your eye on operating hours!
