Disney World for Thanksgiving?

Travel Info
My fiance and I are going to Disney World this Thanksgiving? How crowded does it get at this time of year? Any suggestions of special things to see and do?

Travel Tips

We were there last year and it was a great trip. The close to Thanksgiving the larger the crowds. That weekend the crowds were quite large. Suggestions, make reservations for meals early, the Liberty Tree Tavern in Magic Kingdom does a great Thanksgiving meal every day, but it is so special on Thanksgiving.
If you have not bee before I suggest the following:
Soaring California in Epcot
Expidition Everest in Animal Kingdom
MGM- Fantasmic
Rocking Roller Coaster
Twilight Tower of Terror

Plan meals early and call 1-407-W Disney to prearrange, it makes meal special and you cut down on frustration of trying to find a place to eat. Many of the best resturants or on the dinning plan and you can save a fortune.

Oh my gosh! I love Disney around that time!!! At least when I was there it wasn't TOO crowded, but the main reason I love it is because Epcot has their food and wine festival! Every country has different wine and food selections.... it was great. I hope the two of you have the best time!
It gets really crowded at Disney world during thanksgiving, and any holiday. I suggest you arrive early, and wait for all the parades (they have alot during thanksgiving) and stay for the fireworks at night. Personally, the fireworks are the best part about Disney, so don't forget to stay for that. Have fun=]
Last year we went with some firnds during Thanksgiving and they were alittle busy. They usally are not. You can can get special thingsfor you two if it is your homeymoon. The park is also open later.
It will be crowded.
Schools and business usually close for three days or more.
Most people plan their vacations during that time because of the weather being a bit cooler and they have vacation time.

We are going to Universal the weekend after Thanksgiving only because we know how crowded it gets.

Have fun!!
It will be VERY crowded, since kids are out of school for the holiday. If it's not too late for you to change the dates, I would highly recommend going during the first week of December. Kids have gone back to school, Christmas crowds are two weeks away, so lines aren't very long (we've never waited more than 15-20 minutes during this time of year) and the weather is still very nice. I highly recommend Mickey's Very Merry Christmas party at MK, the Osborne lights at MGM, and the Candlelight Celebration at EPCOT.
