March/April discounts

[LJP]

DH and I are hoping to plan for a trip over March/April - can anyone tell me if this is a nice time to visit and what the chances of any discounts at this time are?
Have only ever been the beginning of December so are a little apprehensive about going at a different time as the Christmas period is so magical.

Thanks

March/April weather wise is a beautiful time to visit.
As far as crowds, there are two things to look out for ... Easter and College Spring Break. We usually go the last week in April and have no problems. Discounts aren't offered around Easter but weeks before and after have had discounts.

We went in middle March 2002, our school's spring break. I thought the crowds were larger than during our trips in June. We also didn't have much luck finding discounts during that time either. Paid $210 for savannah view at AKL.

Can anyone tell me when the Spring Break is likely to be this coming March?

I know there are spring breaks all through March and April (I thought there was a thread listing them somewhere), but since next Easter is so late (April 20), I would guess the earlier in March, the better.

Most of Texas will have spring break March 10-14, 2003. This is the same week we went last March and every other person there seemed to be from Texas.
