Except they're not being inclusive here. Playing politics always means taking a side. The response to a call to political action simply should've been to state that The Walt Disney Company provides family entertainment for everyone and all are welcome. By being "inclusive" to the political...

Classic. When you’re getting a ton of negative feedback for your cost cutting to the point where you dodge D23 because you’re afraid of getting booed… instead of being introspective and thinking about the mistakes you’re making to drive that reaction, put out a puff piece to show the people that...

Based on how they're currently operating their business, they're making a bet on their brand being so incredibly strong that guests will pay whatever it takes for the Disney magic. And for those who won't, there will be others lined up to replace them. There will always be guests who are price...

Food companies do this because their customers are very price sensitive so they cut portion size to keep prices relatively static. Disney is doing this because their customers are very price INsensitive and they want to see how far they can push them before they change their habits. After all...

Just more of the same... you will get less for more and you WILL like it. I get that there's inflation happening in food prices but really... Cut portions and cut prices? Fine. Keep portions and raise prices? Fine. Cut portions and raise prices (and cut quality?) Go pound sand. We had...

If it were just increased costs due to inflation, this wouldn't be nearly as much of an issue to me (although it still matters). My problem is that they're cutting corners like crazy on top of all the added costs. I'm not just paying more for the same experience, I'm paying more for an...

My main issue here is that each subsequent "big" trip with a resort stay and in-park dining has been less of a value for me than the one prior. I went from (This is worth it -> This is still worth it but not as much as before -> I don't know if this is worth it -> This is definitely not worth...

I can't speak for anyone else but I'm at the point where my next trip will be significantly pared down unless positive changes are made. My stays are typically on property with all meals on property and extras like MNSSHP added. Next time out, I'm almost certain I'll stay off property and will...

The dream. I miss the WDW that was as much about the little "in-betweens" as it was about the actual attractions. That's where a lot of the magic is found. If I want to run from attraction to attraction and do nothing else, I'll go to Cedar Point.

It doesn't seem to be any worse today but if they're selling it out, I don't know what stops them from adding more until certain standby lines take a hit.

That's my issue with this though... The same minds who thought to charge us for FP in the first place aren't going to put the brakes on Genie+ because it's hurting standby lanes. If anything, they'll probably be tempted to put more pain into the standby lanes to drive more people towards...

I don’t give these suits a lot of credit but there’s no way they’re this dumb. They’ve already stripped out a lot of the advantages of staying on property away already but to make it so that people have to figure out transportation to the parks? When off-site properties will be happy to shuttle...

Might just be me but I would greatly prefer heading somewhere in the park and then go about my day vs. feeling obligated to wake up at 7am on vacation to set something up. And I’d prefer paper vs yet another thing to do on my phone

My main issue with this apart from the blatant cash grab is that it introduces more stress into a vacation. Most of the things you set up in advance previously (FP, ADRs, Magical Express, etc.) are extra stress ahead of your vacation but when you actually get there, make things go smoother...

It’s a simple supply and demand problem. Demand had exceeded supply which in theory supported higher prices. A good executive would’ve seen that and found a way to increase supply (capacity) while keeping prices the same… since they were at a level where they were perceived as a decent value. A...

For me, it‘s the simple fact that the empty suits are clearly in charge and are milking the parks and resorts for all they’re worth. - The experience has been watered down and corners and costs have been cut all over the place. Many of these cuts aren’t temporary. - Formerly free perks...

I can’t wait until cast members are instructed to shoot Nerf guns at you around the park unless you pay the Magical $50 a day cover charge. Gotta love ruining an experience only to “enhance” it for $$$!

I know that Disney is a corporation in the end but you’d hope that they’d be better than to send cast members off like that. So disappointing...

This kind of stuff just kills me. Disney clearly recognizes their system of bus transportation is so frustrating that they believe people will pay extra money to avoid it... Rather than figuring out a way to fix it so that value is maximized for people staying on property, they figure out a...
