funinthesun1964 Posted December 24, 2015 #1 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Both schools and universities, if you have kids then please post the dates of the breaks. Some people like to avoid these times due to crowds and higher pricing. Thanks! In my area, looks the schools are closed March 21-28. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATL_Miami_Cruiser Posted December 24, 2015 #6 Share Posted December 24, 2015 (edited) April 4th in metro Atlanta area including surrounding counties. If you're cruising from POM then block out all of March and April, the hotel prices during this period are very HIGH. NOLA is high as well during Mardi Gras.

esdoorn Posted December 24, 2015 #14 Share Posted December 24, 2015 March Break in Ontario (English public) is March 14th to March 18th. We are cruise March 28th to April 1st, but chose the Sensation as it is a smaller ship. so less people compared to a bigger ship and easy to get around.

zqvol Posted December 24, 2015 #19 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Colleges and universities in NC are off during the first 3 full weeks of March, though college students are not the ones who cause issues on spring break cruises it is the K -12 gang that is the problem.

It all depends on your perspective. We had some super drunk college kids on our last cruise. Luckily they tended to actually be quite entertaining but it could have easily been a big problem. As it was, my older son did learned some new things he probably didn't need to know yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddylover Posted December 25, 2015 #24 Share Posted December 25, 2015 You will have LOTS of families from March to May....even within States, there are many different school districts....doesn't really matter, as ship's sail full 99% of the time anyway....you can only have as many as the ship will hold! Yes, ships sail full, but not full of kids all the time....the question was asked to avoid school breaks which typically are time periods where the ship has many more kids than non-break times of year. March - April are very heavy with families with kids on vacation from school (both elementary, high school and college ages). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
