Saturday April 2nd Crowds?

I was looking at a website that had crowd information for WDW. I was very surprised to see that the crowd level on April 2nd is expected to be fairly low (a 4 on a scale of 1 to 10). I would have thought that it would be higher since Easter is that same week. When do most people go home after spending spring break at WDW? I'm trying to book a mini-vacation (Fri, Sat, Sun) and would like to go when the crowds are low. We only live 2.5 hours from WDW so we're pretty flexible on which weekend we pick.

Not sure but Sat. is usually a pretty big travel day. I know hwen we go down we almost always leave on Sat. to give us one day rest at home. Because as you know going to WDW is a blast but not relaxing. We're actually going down from April 6th - 16th this year to hopefully miss the Easter crowd.

Each day you get further away from Easter the crowds will get a little lower. I think it's speculated that most people will begin to travel home that Saturday after Easter. I know we usually travel mid-week but thats because airfare is lower.
