We've been to DW 4 or 5 times and we always go way off season - think second week of January. My wife is quite a researcher and we booked at the absolute lowest time of attendance. We literally walked onto any ride we wanted ride - the longest wait was maybe five minutes. We took the kiddo out of school for the week, got her school work in advance, which she finished all of it on the plane. Keep in mind she was in elementary at the two times we did this but it worked out well. I don't care how great it may be I could not tolerate DW when it's jammed packed and the temp is at 95!
