A good question is however, for those who haven't been offered and wouldn't buy it if they were (probably a large percentage of those who haven't been offered) will it affect the amount of their going to the parks ? If there's a noticeable drop in attendance due to this (or eventually, if it gets more widespread), would Disney care? I think it would have to depend on if they're making up the money or not.
Park tickets are expensive enough without having to do add-ons to the ticket. However, with the sample testing, those who will be able to buy won't care about paying more.
As others have said, this is different from other extras because it has the potential and power to diminish the experience for the average park-goer.
I do miss the old FP, it was a lot more fair. Pre-Iger (or even earlier on in Iger's tenure) Disney was a lot more fair, and more in line with what Walt wanted.
I don't always fully understand when people write what Walt would have wanted..... How does anyone truly know what Walt wants..... FULL DISCLOSURE info i'm about to provide was not known by me and actually someone a lot smarter then me on one of my facebook groups I did do some research after and found these facts to be true......
Don't forgot Walt, created Club 33, the most exclusive and profit driven opportunity in the parks, Walt also was the one that capitalized on his partnership with abc to drive attendance into DL, Walt was also the one that charged money just to enter Disneyland, which was unheard at that time.... so while we all woul like to believe Walt would want so much more , Walt was a business man just like Disney is a business trying to profit
