I really think people here think that they are going to affect anything Disney does. Disney is a huge company that is making more and more money all the time. The few hundred (thousand?) people on this message board would not cause them any significant pain, even if they all stopped going. And we are not going to all stop going so they don't care.
That's a depressing attitude if you really think that individual customers don't matter and just because others are not posting on a message board doesn't mean they won't decide it's not worth the current cost and stay away. Maybe Disney thinks there is an unlimited pool of customers and that there is no competition but that type of corporate attitude is not what got them where they are today and it's not what will sustain them long term. Like many people, I vote with my wallet all the time and I do think I make a difference.
None of the price changes here should have made this unattainable in 24 hours. If these increases were enough to put you over the breaking point, you've been right on the edge of it for a long time.
For many, it's not a case of a price increase making something unaffordable as it is making it less attractive when compared with other options to spend that money.
Aw, yes, the old thinking that those with more money work harder than those with less. And I never thought of making more money, what a great idea! That would certainly help! Thanks!
Literally LOL'd. Thanks for the laugh.
Affording it isn't the question, it just not worth it for lesser value. Hello the half Closed Hollywood Studios!
Exactly, the higher the price the more the lack of options at several parks becomes a sticking point.
Yup this last trip was it for us for a couple years. Just not worth it anymore.
This is where we are. While we have never been annual visitors, we have been every other year at either WDW or DL since my DD was little. We have our first Xmas trip planned this year and after that we will not be going back until all of the newly planned worlds/attractions are finished. Maybe in 4 years for DD's sweet 16 or in 6 for her graduation...
