Crowd Prediction Poll: When is your 2011 Spring Break?

[carly3592]

My college's spring break is March 6-12. I think my high school's is April 17-23 this year.

Ok. I have to chime in here because we are going over Easter 2011 and I am very nervous the crowd will be horrible. We are going April 20th to the 28th or 29th. Is Easter just automatically going to be more crowed because it is a holiday or can I expect that since most spring breaks are before Easter it might not be as bad? DS 7th birthday is April 23 and Easter April 24th. We are going as a birthday surprise.

Oh I guess I should mention that we normally get Easter vacation not spring breaks so our vacations are always over Easter no matter what day it is. We have so many snow days to make up that the Easter vacation is only Good Friday (22nd) and Monday(25th) off this year. At least I think they get Monday off. We are in PA.

My DD & I are also going Easter week April 25 - May 1. I am hoping that most spring breaks will be over by this time. This is the first time that she has had spring break so late in April.

Keeping my fingers crossed for small crowds.

Our school doesn't really get a spring break. typically they get off Thurs,Fri, and Monday of easter weekend off. But snow days have taken it away. So our "spring break" is only April 22.

Most everyone I know out our way New England has the week leading into Easter for spring break. We have not had it this late usually ours is the week before but this year with easter they all have break easter week.
I know lots of folks heading to Disney that week

We will be there braving the crowds in 13 days! We have spring break March 14-18 (private school spring break in Baltimore, MD).

NH schools are closed the week after Easter. We will be at Disney as my oldest is performing with her dance studio on Tuesday 4/26.

I wanted to add maybe 2 or 3 years ago we went the week either leading into or after Easter. I did not know anything about the expected crowds and had never been on dis! we noticed a bigger crowd than when we went a few years before but we did most of what we wanted in the parks and it was all good!! I would still rather be there crowded than not!!

I'm thrilled to see that my week is the lowest 10-17

scared to see how many people have our week of 4-8th April, hopefully none of those people like Disney

Bumping

Disney treats the weeks before and after Easter as the peak weeks -- those are always the peak weeks for DVC points along with the week between Christmas and New Years. I think it's probably the same for hotel pricing.

Bumping for another thread

We get the week before Easter off starting April 16th. This is an interesting thread. Explains why it was so crowded this week.

 

[CamdenScott4]

We are going Apr 1-8th. According to this poll and another, I really think the next 3 weeks are going to be similar crowds. Really hoping to hear positive crowd reports back the next two weeks!

We go year round, so his spring break is actually March 28th thru April 18th!
