Avoiding Europe and the USA doesnt leave that many options on your budget
Canaries would be great in April as would the west coast of USA.
Who knows what the euro or dollar will be doing in 14 months time0 -
Asia? What about Thailand? East coast would be good as there is less rain in April. Should be able to get a good deal on flights and accommodation as its out of high season (depending on when Easter is - as the price will go up!)
Hope that helps!0 -

Thailand is lovely and also food can be amazing and cheap if you eat from the local places! Beaches are fab. Don't worry to much about the weather, we went in rainy season last year and we had a few hours of rain on one day and that was about it! And we are of to Singapore and Borneo in 3 weeks! Its monsoon season in March but hardly any rain so far so not to worried!0

Totally agree with you, the disney parks are way overpriced but I guess for some, seeing a guy/girl dressed in a mickey costume they are worth it.0 -
How about the Carribean - you should be able to get an all inclusive deal for that price Antigua has the best beaches !0
