Disney at Easter?

[bamamom]

We are planning on going to Disney for Spring Break next year...just found out that spring break will start the day after Easter next year. I know Easter is a busy time of the year...my question is ...is it the week leading into Easter (mon - sat before Easter on Sunday) or the week that Easter starts (Easter Sunday 3/24/13 spring break starts 3/25) or does it matter are they both super crowded? Our Spring Break is usually in April and of course the year we plan on going it gets changed to March With our kids in high school and sports the only other time we could go would be July or first part of August

my ex and I took the kids for the Easter week as our "guilt trip" before telling the kids we were splitting up back in 2005.

Although it was 7 years ago -- i don't recall it being very busy at all, and we were even able to get DRs at Crystal Palace for dinner.

We've been for Spring Break numerous times, both the week before and after Easter. On the plus side, the weather was gorgeous every time. On the down side it was super-busy (as in TL, BB, and the MK closed to capacity during our trip). But the parks are open extra-late and with careful planning we were able to go on plenty of rides and we had a great time...

I think both of the Easter weeks are equally busy. Our Spring Break is going to be the same as yours. We already had Easter plans before we found out about Spring Break, so we are going to WDW for Fall Break this year.
We have gone during Spring Break twice before (once near Easter) & both times were extremely crowded. However, last year I did more planning before the trip & it helped a lot. We also used the Lines app in the parks, and never waited more than 15 minutes for any ride. We only had to use FastPasses one time for TSM. I would try very hard to not go in July or August; Orlando is hellishly hot then. We went once in late July, and the kids actually begged us to leave the park and go back to the hotel LOL. Spring Break weather there was fabulous!
