Crowds 1st week of March vs. 1st week of April??

[corinascot]

Dh and I can't decide which week to book next spring. We're trying to avoid spring break crowds and yet have a good chance of warmer weather. Dh likes the 1st week of March (march 4-11) and I like the 1st week of April (April 1-8). Since Easter is April 16, that would be the week before the week before Easter. Any thoughts from you experts??

Thanks!

I've got to think the crowds will be bigger the first week of April. The weeks right before and after Easter are supposed to be one of the busiest times at WDW. We were there this year in late March/early April 3 (including Easter Sunday) and it was very crowded. However, with the lextended hours at the parks and extra magic hours, we were still able to do just about everything we wanted to do. MK was open from 7 am to midnight just about every day we were there, and it was open until 3 am one day! Oh, and the weather was glorious when we were there - one day with rain but otherwise beautiful.

You'll definitely have warmer weather a month later, but it will be WAY more crowded. WAAAAY more!
