My guess is he parks will be moderately busy with TDL being very busy on April 3.

TDS on the other hand should be mega crowded since it's the first Easter event and it's spread out with three shows but since there is no lottery I wonder if the lines for attractions will be at least a little shorter since people will have to wait in line to be able to watch from the viewing areas.

Originally Posted By TokyoSweets I think that should be ok. If you are not interested in the TDS Easter event the 2nd will be fine and 4th for TDL sounds good too. Even the 3rd for TDL should be fine because most people should be at TDS that day.
Originally Posted By The Goddess Mara Oops, I had that wrong. I should do DisneySea on the 2nd, Disneyland on the 3rd, and then park hop on the 4th and 5th. Yes?
Originally Posted By TokyoSweets Yup, I think it should be fine. Your best bet would be too wait a couple of weeks after the open date but if you are going at that time it's a good plan.
