    Has Disney Pricing Increases/Atmosphere Cuts Altered YOUR FAMILIES WDW Attendance?

    So by those income metrics about 25% of the U.S. would be considered "upper class". I can see 30% of households earning over 100k, NYC, SV, Chicago, and LA skew this. Looks like PEW took the whole numbers they liked then failed to adjust for location.

    Has Disney Pricing Increases/Atmosphere Cuts Altered YOUR FAMILIES WDW Attendance?

    I'm a family of 5 and just clear the Pew minimum for "upper class", but there is no way I would consider myself upper class. Even living in Mississippi (the poorest state in the country.). I'm not going to pretend I struggle, but i'm def high end middle class...

    Has Disney Pricing Increases/Atmosphere Cuts Altered YOUR FAMILIES WDW Attendance?

    In what world is 80K upper class? Heck I live in the poorest state in the country and wouldn't consider 80k upper class... even in the poorest county/city in the state.

    Attractions for 5yr old.

    I would say any ride that he/she is tall enough to ride will be fine. At 5 years my oldest could (and did) ride everything in the park. She barely made the 48 in cutoff for RnR but she did. Thankfully my sister was with me so she could take her on ToT... Honestly beside ToT and MS:Orange (if...

    Is Disneyland Paris better than the parks at WDW?

    Cant wait to go to DLP. I've accepted a job with a defense contractor in Germany so I'll be checking DLP out (hopefully several times) in 2020

    Is Disneyland Paris better than the parks at WDW?

    Glad to hear DLP is so good of a park. I'll most likely be moving to Germany over the next couple months and looking forward to checking it out.

    Has Disney Pricing Increases/Atmosphere Cuts Altered YOUR FAMILIES WDW Attendance?

    No effect yet. The pricing isn't an issue for me but the cuts are.

    MDE crashing

    I currently work for one of the large IT service providers (think IBM and Accenture size). I know we currently have a large contract with Disney but I don't know the details of it since I'm not working it. I would imagine it revolves around cloud migration but can't say for sure. Hopefully...

    MDE crashing

    I interviewed for a data center architect role for Disney about a year and half ago. I ended up turning the job down because the pay wasnt what I expected. But I did ask what problems they were specifically looking to solve with their existing infrastructure. In short, they consider all their...

    If he was drunk hopefully he does the "keep one eye closed so you dont see double" trick.

    Going to WDW soon, question about ECVs

    Like others have said, rent from an offsite company. I've personally used "Yellow Scooters" in Orlando for my Grandmother. The rates were reasonable, much cheaper than renting from WDW.

    Does a lion king land sound cool for Epcot or better off at animal kingdom?

    I think that land is already in AK... It's called Africa

    Why are so many adults are obsessed with WDW?

    I just mock booked a 8 night stay at the Grand Floridian for August, just to do a price check. That includes the standard dining plan, memory maker, 7 park days, and parkhopper. The total cost comes out to be right at 6 grand. Truthfully, theres not alot of other places that we could spend 6,000...

    CM Attacked at ToT

    I wasn't shocked at the incident at DL. I lived in San Diego for 3 years and went to DL several times. Much lower class of people there. The demographics at WDW are much different. the DL incident is a normal Tuesday night at a Golden Coral around here... especially on fried chicken night.

    CM Attacked at ToT

    I'm thinking she probably had "anytime fastpasses", like you get for attending the DVC sales presentation. When we went this last trip everyone in the party got 3 anytime FP. We were told it was valid on everything except: MK: PP and 7dmt EPCOT: Frozen, AK: Navi, FOP, DHS: SDD, , MM. We...

    Just got back from my 11 day stay. We had a blast but feel extorted by Mickey Mouse.

    Absolutely... We have a low cost carrier in Gulfport (my closest airport) that will run about $150 but they only fly 2 days a week, and it's just seasonal... That's not counting the insane fees they nickle and dime you with Delta flys Gulfport buy everything goes through Atlanta and cost $400 a...
