Spring Break Timing on Ecstasy

[hince57]

I'm taking the family on a cruise sometime this spring/summer on the ecstasy and wanted to avoid all of the rowdiness that may occur..for all of you spring breakers (been there, done that!) and those in the know...what's the best time to avoid all that, besides january?! should i blockoff a whole range of dates to avoid?

 

thanks.

It is a range of dates, for sure. Have you searched last year's Roll Calls to see if anyone knew in advance and how they found out? You could probably search/contact some "tourist bureaus" from major Spring Break cities to see if they know when the majority of "action" occurs. The websites for the biggest colleges/state universities will have the school-year calendar on them.

I think early May would be safe--SB should be over, and end-of-school not quite there. Of course, you have chosen the cruiseline with the reputation for having the most likely appeal to the SB'ers!

Happy Cruising

Hey,

 

Just to help you out a little we have a group of 12 driving down from WI to go out of Mobile on March 26th. That is our spring break. I would say late April to early May would be fine.
