help!!!! disney world!? how long are wait t imes?

Okay, so me, my sister, & my friend libby are all trying to raise money to go to Disney World June 1-9th. How long are wait times during this time? There will be five of us ( me, my mom, my dad, my sister, & my friend libby)
Tickets (including Park hopper & Waterparks) For 7 days=$1035 ( My dad’s job gets *very * discounted tickets)
Also my cousin is manager at a Hilton hotel, & can get us cheap rates at the Hilton for $40 a night.
Hotel @ Hilton = $40 per night or $240 for the week.
Is this a good price?
Oh & we are driving. anything else i need to figure for?

Since most schools are out by then, you can expect the parks to be pretty crowded and the lines for the popular rides to be fairly long. Weekends will be even more crowded, and Friday and Monday will be more crowded than the other weekdays. Get to the parks very early in the morning and ride the more popular rides before the big crowds really start coming, and later in the day when it’s more crowded, take advantage of Fast Passes for the rides with long lines when possible. Fast Passes aren’t unlimited though, so make sure to get them before they run out.

As for the price, if you already know you are getting “*very* discounted tickets,” and your cousin is giving you cheap rates at the hotel, why are you asking if it’s a good price? You just said yourself that it was. As for other things to consider, food is going to cost you a lot for 5 people for a week, especially if you plan on eating some or most meals on Disney property. Even if you eat off-property, it’s not going to be cheap. Expect to spend anywhere from $20-$40+ per person per day on food. If your hotel offers a free breakfast, take full advantage of that every day to save money on food. Also consider gas money for the trip there and back. It is also $14 per day to park your car at Disney, so add around $100 for that. Then there are extras like souvenirs, but that’s optional.
