Looking at heading to WDW Feb or March 2015. Both Feb 17 - 25 and March 17 - 25 have great airfare (Tuesday into MCO and the following Wednesday back home). I know Ash Wednesday (Feb 18) involves an influx of a good number of friendly folks from the great state of Louisiana, getting out of town due to Mardi Gras and the time off that comes with it. It is also Princess 1/2 Marathon weekend. We've been there during that time and it was busy. Anyone familiar with the March 17 - 25 (Spring Break) timeframe and how it might compare? I'm going to guess late March is busier and it's not even close but I would appreciate hearing from folks who know for sure.
 
We were there March 16-21 this year and I was surprised that it wasn't busier than it was. I think it is one if the less busy spring break weeks and would love to go that time again. Although I am not sure, it could also have been a factor that Easter was late this year. If it's earlier next year than that week could be busier too. Haven't been that same week in February so I can't compare for you. We have been earlier in February ( 10-17) and it was quiter then.
