Everyone's situation is different, so my tipping point is different. I plan in all areas of my life not only for vacations, but for anything else I may need or want. I just got all my windows replaced at home...not a cheap proposition. Paid cash for all of it. I budgeted and saved (money and PTO so I could be home and an alternate place for the pups to stay while the world was being done).
I do the same with vacations. I know my limits and how to save a few bucks here and there: cash back apps, promotions, discounts, etc. I don't buy $3 water anywhere, let alone a park. I don't stay at the fancy hotels (unless there's a great deal). I squirrel away money every paycheck for the trip, even if I don't have one planned. I don't complain or whine or snark the prices...like others have said, this is a vacation and it's not designed for everyone just like a 4k TV or a three bedroom house or a Mercedes. There's lots of places to vacation and things to do. I choose to spend my money on the Mouse.
