zeppman - we were booked for the same time. Prices were insane! We have miles from Delta and even so...we would still have been paying more than normal AND using all our miles. I also work in a school, but fortunately, I'm allowed to take time off. We just moved our trip up two weeks. The prices are what we are used to. Remember that first weekend in April is Easter. I think that is impacting the prices as I've never seen them so high!
