Re: How long are your vacations at WDW?

My shortest trip with 4 days (HS senior trip) but we usually stay for 10 days. I'd love to make it 2 weeks. Ever notice, no matter how many days you go, the days you pick seem to be the shortest days of the year?

Re: How long are your vacations at WDW?

We usually go from 7-10 days. Anything under 7 would feel rushed to me.

I know exactly what you mean. Time seems to fly once you get to Disney, but it drags on much slower wehn you are waiting for your trip.

Re: How long are your vacations at WDW?

So far for me and my family it has been 0 days! We haven't been there yet!

I am aiming for a 8-10 day trip in either 2006 or 2007... FUN!

Re: How long are your vacations at WDW?

Living on the westcoast, my DH and I try to spend at least a couple of weeks when we go to WDW (our favourite place on this earth!) and we are planning our next visit to be 3 weeks!

Re: How long are your vacations at WDW?

Ideally, I like to spend 10-12 days at WDW. But, on average, my vacations have been one week.

Re: How long are your vacations at WDW?

Our trip this time will be 6 days. I think the longest we have been at WDW is 7 or 8 days and our shortest trip was 4 days. I felt so rushed during that 4 day trip. It didn't seem like we got to do anything.

Re: How long are your vacations at WDW?

We figured the perfect length of trip for us was 10 days. 1 week wasn't long enough, 2 weeks was just a wee bit too long.

Course, we also spend a few days of our trips at Universal.

Re: How long are your vacations at WDW?

This year will be our first trip of 8 nights. We have 'Commando -ed' over three nite stays and have coasted over 6 nites. The older I get, the more I coast.

Re: How long are your vacations at WDW?

Our last trip was 9 nights, but we spent two (wastful) days at Universal & IOA. This time, we're doing 6 night of pure disney.

I'd love to take a longer trip, but we go in January durning school and with one ds in high school, any longer may be a big problem for him.

Re: How long are your vacations at WDW?

On average, my WDW vacations are one week. However, I have vacationed there for only 4 days and--my best!--was 12 days.

Re: How long are your vacations at WDW?

Gee....I need to find a new job. 3 and 4 week vacations? WOW Around here, they complain when I take a full week off at one time!!!

Longest trip so far is seven "not so glorious" days. WDW was wonderful, even with the crowds, the ungodly heat, and the smoke (this was in early July of '98 -- the year of the wildfires). However, we were off-site in my parent's time share with way too many people crammed into way too small a space. Tempers flared and it was Not Pretty I'm thinking even the mood swings of an almost teenager during our visit in November will be heaven comapred with that trip

Other trips have been of the 3-4 day variety and the one next month will be right in line with that. But I'll be in WDW and that is all that matters!!
