As someone who normally stays deluxe, I would be on board with this….as long as there is an advanced option. Nothing sounds more stressful than fighting to get fastpasses every morning of my vacation . Because realistically if there is any “free” FPs included with stays or otherwise it’s going to be even more cutthroat because 1. there will have to be fewer of them to reserve so many for paid availability and 2. people will be even more motivated to get them vs payingFor the record, I am against eliminating free FP. I don’t like the exclusively pay-toplay system.
Here’s what I realistically expect to happen:
All FP are paid but with dynamic pricing. A certain number of FP will be set aside to buy in advance at a higher “guarantee to ride” price. Most will be available to purchase the day-of with dynamic pricing engaged.
Staying at an on-site hotel will get you a certain dollar amount of “Genie Gems” (or some other catchy name) to put towards your FP. Values get less, deluxe get more.
To fill the hotels during slow times of the year, they’ll offer genie gems incentives “Book a 3-night package now and get $200 in magical tokens”
Do I love it? No.
is it an improvement for me? Yes.
