Spring break

[goofycathy]

Which days are considered spring break at DL? We are planning a trip on March 7-13. I think this would be early enough to avoid the spring break crowd but dont mind rescheduling if need be....Thanks in advanced!

I'm not sure. I know our schools here in Phoenix start about that time. Our particular district is out the week after as well as the community colleges. Judging by the hotel rates/availability, the week after you plan to go will be busier but I'm not certain how busy that week will be.

We are in Phoenix and our Spring Break is March 29th-April 2nd which is really late for us....usually we are around the second week of March...

I am on Vancouver Island and our kids have spring break from March 6-14th so I would imagine a lot of British Columbians will be down there with their families.

I would go by what Disney thinks is Spring Break and you can tell that by looking at park hours and entertainment. When they both go to maximum or near maximum conditions you can tell that Disney expects extra Spring Break crowds. Maximum hours is 8AM-Midnight at DL and max entertainment is daily fireworks and Fantasmic, and parades. Next March Fantasmic will be down so will not be able to use that as a guide.

In recent years DLR has maxed out hours around mid-March until mid-April. So you will likley be ahead of that. To see past years check this link:
