Rare craig01020 Posted November 6, 2022 #1 Share Posted November 6, 2022 I'm thinking of booking a 7-day cruise on the Panorama from April 27-May 4, 2024. Is it safe to say that spring break would be over by then? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare shof515 Posted November 6, 2022 #2 Share Posted November 6, 2022 its hard to say because every place in the USA has different spring break schedules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csm5986142 Posted November 6, 2022 #3 Share Posted November 6, 2022 Yes, I think so. I agree every place is different, but for what it is worth, I have 4 kids and none of them ever had a spring break that late in April. The younger kids always had the first full week of April off. We have found that to be an extremely common spring break while at WDW or on cruises. Our college age kid has spring break in early March. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
staceyglow Posted November 6, 2022 #4 Share Posted November 6, 2022 Late April would be pretty late for Spring Break for a traditional school schedule. Most of them will be out for the summer break within the following 4-6 weeks. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bartleby112 Posted November 6, 2022 #5 Share Posted November 6, 2022 so last year we did a land based trip over spring break. i googled something to the likes of "list of college spring breaks". It was odd because our school gave the kids off the week before Easter. It turned out that maybe less than a few dozen schools had spring break that week. go the week before or week after it was hundreds if not thousands. But most schools do it late march or right around easter. i assume you'll be fine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare craig01020 Posted November 6, 2022 Author #6 Share Posted November 6, 2022 I think I just found the answer to my own question (see link below). (These dates are 2023, not 2024, but there are none as late as April 27.) https://www.studentcity.com/plan-a-trip/when-is-my-spring-break/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MistyRo76 Posted November 6, 2022 #7 Share Posted November 6, 2022 My favorite time to cruise is mid-late April! Perfect weather, good prices, and you're usually past all the Spring Break travel but beat the summer travel! Book it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisingguy007 Posted November 6, 2022 #8 Share Posted November 6, 2022 Yes, you should be well away from it, I don't know of any schools going that late in 2024, usually Easter is the latest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Eli_6 Posted November 6, 2022 #9 Share Posted November 6, 2022 Yes. Spring break is generally in March or, at the very latest, at Easter at every school I have ever been at or had children at...and that includes even a UK school. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DB2VA Posted November 6, 2022 #10 Share Posted November 6, 2022 The latest college spring break seems to be 4/15 to 4/22. Most are in March. Your dates are perfect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elaine5715 Posted November 6, 2022 #11 Share Posted November 6, 2022 Spring breakers on a 7 day cruise are rare and if there traveling with parents. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badfinger Posted November 7, 2022 #12 Share Posted November 7, 2022 If you are talking about grades up through High School, I don't think it really matters. The kids will be there. As for college kids...frankly I don't think that many want to do a SEVEN DAY cruise. My two sons just finished college and their choices for spring break were the beaches in Florida or Texas Padre Islands. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Cruiser Posted November 7, 2022 #13 Share Posted November 7, 2022 We cruise every April out of Florida, usually the third week of April, sometimes the last week. We've never had any issue with spring breakers. Late April is our favorite time to cruise, followed by September. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eastoftheboston Posted November 8, 2022 #14 Share Posted November 8, 2022 I work at a university. By May 4 we're in reading period before finals. You're clear of Spring Break by then! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can vary anywhere from 22 March to 25 April. (More typically 23 March through 24 April). So all of the above is somewhat nebulous. I cannot comment on whether schools / boards account for that year's Easter in designating their Spring Break period. What matters for Spring break is getting the kids back in school for enough time before the summer break. So yes, by mid-April there will be very few schools on Spring Break. In the link provided earlier by another poster, there are only 12 schools (out of almost 1000) with Spring Break planned for the week of 15 April 2023. All other schools are earlier.

coops Posted November 10, 2022 #16 Share Posted November 10, 2022 We cruise mostly late April and it is the best. No spring breakers that late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
