If you cruise during school vacations, you may want to consider the line you select, carefully. Some of the lines attract children more than others. And, of course, I presume that it might matter to you. For Carnival, the individual ship matters a lot - most of them are very downscale and boring. I have a personal problem with Norwegian (worst customer service ever, culminating in them canceling my trip and then charging me the cancellation fee.) But they are in a really sweet price/value spot. I love Royal Carribean - very kid friendly. Niki liked them, I think. Princess is (I hear) equivalent. Celebrity is a bit less child intense, a bit more upscale. Beyond that I only hear stories.
There are different sorts of cruise vacations. Some are active and exciting, some are glorious sit-back, drink, and relax. The more stops, the more active the trip can be.
There are many discount cruise sites and choices. April is a bit late in the year for cruising, so it may get quite hot out there.
You may want to consider some of the all-inclusive resorts, instead. You can get some awesome buys, but remember to check and book the airfare as well. The Dominican Republic is very cheap to reach, and stay on. Jamaica as well. Aruba is inexpensive as well. Mexico can be VERY good.
You may want to frequent the web site "SkyAuctions.com" for a while, see if you can score a deal. Be sure and check the various options being sold for black-out dates.
