I have a feeling Disney watches comments on the Disboards for informational purposes, so I want to post this here.
Disney,
Please bring back no-expiration date tickets. They were a great way for families to plan a day or two at the parks without having to spend a $100+ per day for a one or two day ticket. Our family of 4 was able to make a 10 day no-expiration Park Hopper last for 3 or 4 visits, which allowed us to go more often. That did not mean we only stayed 2 or 3 days, because we are 9 hours away. What that meant was we would stay for 5 or 6 days and the days we were not in the parks, we would visit Downtown Disney (Disney Springs), the beautiful Disney resorts, Disney Quest (RIP) and enjoy horseback riding and dinner reservations.
Just because we were not in the parks every day did not mean we didn't put money in disney's pocket. Quite the contrary, we probably spent more than we would have being in the park that day.
Having the no-expiration date tickets allowed us to maximize the time we spent in the park on park days and use other days for other disney adventures and not loose a park ticket or have to pay an incredible amount.
I know you can't tell it from your attendance, but your continual price increases, are pushing many families out of a disney vacation.
My family has been blessed to make several trips in the past 9 years, and the no-expiration date tickets really helped make that possible. Our next trip will use up the last of our tickets, and then, we will have to buy them every trip. This will force our trips to be further apart.
