💡 Tips for Visiting in April
The sweet spot is April 20 onwards - UK schools are back, US Spring Break is over, and weather is superb.
Easter Sunday itself sees maximum crowds at Magic Kingdom - consider alternative parks that day.
Sunscreen is essential - the UV index is high even though temperatures feel manageable.
This is when summer park hours begin - take advantage of extended evenings for shorter waits.
