Agreed, I think the majority of the Folks going right now are still those taking their revenge vacations, most big Disney park fans going through withdrawal and need theDisney fix.
For any addict, even Disney addicts, money is no object, it’s only about getting the fix..
How long will revenge trips to WDW last? I really cannot guess. The parks were mobbed prior to the pandemic. There’s s lot of folks yet to return post pandemic to get their fix and see for themselves either way; worth it or not worth it.
I see all that’s going on and I want to go to WDW, especially during Christmastime to get that WDW during Christmas feeling.
Will I go? Unless something happens significantly in my life, it’s a hard no for me. This comes from someone that happily renewed 3 platinum WDW passes for 13 years prior to the pandemic.
Even with all TWDC has done, I will still blame it on the pandemic which allowed TWDC to make all the current and future changes at their theme parks.
In my mind, if there was no pandemic, other than the typical price increases, things would have remained the same in the parks, not what we are seeing now.
