A few friends and I are planning a trip to Universal Orlando for a few days during winter break from college. What are the crowds like around the second week in January to mid January
When Florida schools are in, a decent crowd. But when they're out it's crowded

Anyone here from that area and know when they are off? I certainly do not want to be in that mess if I can avoid it.

The first full week of January is back to school. Be warned that tour group season is in January,

Orlando Informer has a crowd size calendar for the Universal parks on their web site. They have projections for Jan. 2013.

^YES. Orlando Informer has the best UO crowd calendar (there's also Undercover Tourist but that's very inaccurate). I haven't tried their touring plans because I'm a local.
January / February are GREAT time to go to Universal, not so much Disney as they usually start doing a low price 5 month Florida resident ticket Jan 1. Best way to check crowd sizes is to go to Universals 3 hotels and see when the least expensive room rates occur. Good indicator.

What are you talking about Doug? I've been to Disney when the Floridians have those passes and crowds were low.
