WHAT WE THINK ABOUT JUNE:
June is not one of our Optimal times to go to Disney World. Here’s why:
- It’s hot, hot, hot. It’s humid, and it rains a pretty much daily. See the Weather at Disney World & Picking Travel Dates page for details on what it’s like.
- It’s crowded, and crowds change the quality of your trip. The waits for rides can be long. The walkways in the parks are more crowded. The resorts and parks are crowded. Lines for quick service food are longer. You’ll spend a lot more time waiting.
That being said, you can still have fun at Disney but you’ll need to adjust your expectations and plan extremely well. Consult a site like touringplans.com for daily touring plans of the parks to cut down on your wait times. Make strategic use of FastPass+. Recognize that it will probably rain every day at least for a few minutes in the afternoon, and plan accordingly.
Other things to consider:
Hurricane Season starts in June. June and November tend to be the least active, but a hurricane is possible. See the Weather at Disney World & Picking Travel Dates page for more details.
