Originally Posted By t1lersm0m Don't be too frightened. We checked into Pop Century September 29th, and on the 30th I decided I didn't like the resort and tried upgrading to a moderate. The only rooms available were 1 bedroom villas at OKW for $370 a night. That wasn't in my price range, so we stuck it out at Pop. The point of telling you that is that even though all the values and mods were full, the only time we came across any major lines was at MK on Saturday. I went to MK on a Saturday against better judgement because we met up with friends who hadn't been there since last year, and they only had one day. When we were at Epcot earlier in the week, the only bad lines were at Soarin' and Test Track, which is fine if you utilize Fast Pass.

I had called Disney and they said they were booked. While here in Atlanta they were advertising heavily that there were rooms available everywhere. After argueing with their resevations desk for over an hour. I booked a week long stay at the Marriott Courtyard ( now a Holiday Inn ) in DTD. Even is Disney is truely booked. They can handle the crowds. Its a huge property with four HUGE theme parks. Also Disney will be doing extended hours during your stay. So not to worry.

There's no real way of telling except to be at the resort and/or have access to individual resort's room counts. That said, fall is an increasingly very busy time for WDW. I remember back in the 70s and 80s when the MK would close every night at 6 or 7 p.m. in October because no one was there.
