Feb Cruise to Caribbean/Bahamas

[karinad]

We have never cruised in the winter months before out of NYC, I'm most concerned about winter break for the school kids or MLK Day/weekend. When do these time typically start with winter or holiday break. The dates we're looking at are the end of Jan and mid Feb,, Typically we travel in Oct and not to many children around the ships. Thanks in advance

MLK Birthday is in January, I think the second Monday. Its a federal holiday, it should show on any calendar. The 3 day Presidents weekend is also a federal holiday, and should show on a calendar.

 

"Winter Break" varies by school district, and some don't even have it...its not the same in all school districts. Your late January target should miss any of the holidays.

Minor correction Bruce, it's the 3rd Monday.

I live in New York State and many school districts are closed from Feb 18-25. I would not be worried about MLK day.

Presidents Week in Feb. should be your main concern.

Many schools not only take off on Monday, Presidents Day , but the entire week.
