March Crowds

[Katie3377]

On the Touring Plan March crowd calendar, it gives 2 and 3 for while we are going but Hollywood Studios is already full. Why is it giving low crowds when many of the parks will be “full” capacity? Is this because “full” is only a normal 2 or 3?

Well EC is a 6 today.

Crowd Predictions during Covid?

I’ve always loved using the Touring Plans crowd predictions, but with the reduced capacity I’m confused. It the rating given based on if the parks had 100% capacity?

For example, today all the park reservations are completely full with all park reservations full for every park, which I would think would indicate a 10.

I am wondering the same thing. Are the crowd level predictions relative to the current climate? Or are they based on what normal capacity is? I am not seeing a correlation between low crowds and shorter wait times. We are going 3rd week of May and crowds are very low, like 2’s for most days. So the $20 question is should I expect short wait times, or just a lot of elbow room walking around?
