Is going to Disney during the holiday week a really bad idea?

We decided not to go to Mexico but are exploring other winter vacation options. I get the week of Christmas off.

Is Disney a complete zoo during Christmas week?

yes, i went once and will never go again that week. it's nice to see it decorated for christmas, but it is absolutely PACKED. I think it is the busiest time of year.

The week between Christmas and New Year's Day is one of the busiest times of year. That being said, it's beautiful to see everything decorated for the holidays!

We decided to go in early December instead.

i believe all the holiday decorations will be up and the crowds aren't too crazy.

YES!!! Christmas and New Years are the busiest times of the year - it isn't unusual for the parks to CLOSE in the mornings b/c they are full to capacity. I don't think as much as I love WDW that I would ever go then unless there was no choice. Before Christmas and after new years is pretty quiet for the most part.

The parks will be wall to wall people with very long waits.
