Pirate and Pixie Dust only as per the blackout date calendar. Getting a park reservation at the other two levels may be a different question though. Marie

So past due. Marie

That is correct. Marie

For the most part, I dont need it to make my trip enjoyable. Disney for me was always about the whole experience not ticking attractions off a list, so if I dont get on an attraction, especially as I am usually doing something else such as meeting with friends, checking out musical acts, etc...

@BrianLo Absolutely correct on the Royal Caribbean comment. Add in more family friendly locations on the ships, more water park options onboard, specialized dining locations for families, etc. Royal is certainly courting the same audience. Marie

I was just talking to someone the other day. While you or I might not buy it, a lot of people, right or wrong, have the perception that they HAVE to buy it or they wont be able to get on any attractions at the parks. They can hike the pricing to limit people who will purchase it, but that...

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Marie

Correct. Either way attendance is reduced at the park. Gambling like that is not a good strategy though, as when attendance really did drop, they looked to the AP holders to come and spend money in the Parks. If those people no longer purchase an AP and just put Disney in with a ton of other...

Someone else had mentioned it earlier in the thread about Bob wanting ME back. And I agree about the infrastructure being set up, it is a question of ponying up the money. Marie

Same Dude, same. Meet me at Trader Sam's for a drink or two? Marie

$100 at the consumer side. If Disney is running this as a mass production thing, I'm sure that this would be less expensive to operate, so it is even less for them in terms of paying for it. So many people thought this was a great perk as it made the planning process super easy. Bob has said...

@lentesta Any insight on this? Marie

And welcome back to the point of the thread. I can tell you if I had an IncrediPass AP (No blackout dates)and wanted to plan a trip a number of months out, but didnt know what park I wanted to be in on what day yet so I wasnt going to make reservations, I would be less than happy to know that I...

Exactly my point, most people dont need to make reservations, so you know that people will be attending one of the four theme parks for the number of days on their tickets, but no idea as to which park on which day. CM Availability is controlled via black out dates so again reservations are...

But the reservation data is incomplete as only certain groups need to make park reservations and only sometimes. At this point it may not be having the same benefit it did previously as far as staffing goes. Marie

During Covid is the important part. It had nothing to do with crowds during a time when there wasnt a global pandemic going on. Marie

That is not my understanding at all. The reservations were developed to limit the number of people in the parks as a whole during Covid to avoid overcrowding. It had nothing to do with thinning out the crowds at all. Marie
