    News Walt Disney World to resume sales of Annual Passes (New sales resume April 20, 2023)

    You are so right. Anyone can look up the park earnings going back 20 years and look at the revenue and Profit for the parks alone. Even in the worst of time the parks make money, recession or not. They may make less some years, but they don't lose money by any stretch. Disney Parks came out...

    News Disney World Cast Member unions to begin week of negotiations for wage increases, healthcare costs and more

    You are right in more ways then one, change(especially in technology) actually creates more jobs in the end as well. Robots don't replace us, they create more jobs for us. Technology Creates More Jobs Than It Destroys Despite the claims to the contrary, innovation is a job creator, not a job...

    News Disney World Cast Member unions to begin week of negotiations for wage increases, healthcare costs and more

    Well I didn't really say whether I liked it myself or not, I said something is not right here. I would not say "we" support anything, we have no power to change it. We live under how things work right now. Are you are hinting going to WDW is supporting it? This is not WDW issue this is all...

    News Disney World Cast Member unions to begin week of negotiations for wage increases, healthcare costs and more

    Well they can legally strike, when is hidden from the public: Disney workers technically cannot strike, according to the current no-strike/no-lockout deal the union has with the company. That changes when the deal expires, a date that's not publicly known as the company and the union are...

    News Disney World Cast Member unions to begin week of negotiations for wage increases, healthcare costs and more

    That was not the question though. The comment wasn't what happens if the CM's walk off the job during current negotiations. At the appropriate time for workers to strike what happens to WDW if the CM's do strike.

    Mine only started at 35 minutes. I clicked the link pretty quickly after it was posted here though. Monday March 6th 1:00PM is our Preview time. Thanks guys because I never get the emails. Actually, I found waiting for the email might be detrimental and be a cuase not to get a reservation at...

    News Tron coaster coming to the Magic Kingdom

    Waiting for the link I will not get the email. Worst case I go to Tron in fall, I am not spending summer here again, too darn hot. I have been here 13 months now angoing to visit the kids in IL to September at least. I had several people tell me its a short underwhelming ride and another tell...

    News Tron coaster coming to the Magic Kingdom

    Wife approved the 100 bucks for 2 tickets to the D23 Tron preview. I logged in early, it stated the line was random. I waited 23 minutes, it sent me to purchase page and I thought okay I got it. I get to the purchase page and it states the TRON D23 Preview is SOLD OUT. With a 23 minute sell...

    News Disney World Cast Member unions to begin week of negotiations for wage increases, healthcare costs and more

    That is every where. Anywhere they pay 17 an hour no one can live on 17 an hour, not a 40 hour week and not on their own. In my life there was never a time I could afford to live on my own and I tried in several states. It took me and my wife together working 60 hours plus a week for years and...

    You are right I am on a ladder taping a ceiling talking through my headset talk to text basically so the numbers are Definitely off, the idea is the same though. I guess I can't multitask as I get older. Same idea though, even 100 million every 4 months to give the front line workers is not...

    I didn't point you out, I simply said the scope of the issue is not understood to the many here. I apologize if you thought I was arguing or coming at you, you I am not. I was talking to the thread as a whole. Many here are stating this or that,some stating the raise offered is enough, I...

    News Disney World Cast Member unions to begin week of negotiations for wage increases, healthcare costs and more

    I do not think the scope of the issue is understood here. First Disney lost 1.5 billion in streaming in last Q4 and lost 630 million last year in those same 3 months. Paying 40 thousand workers for the parks at 4 bucks an hour cost them what? 160K every 4 months? This entire thing is a joke...

    News Disney World Cast Member unions to begin week of negotiations for wage increases, healthcare costs and more

    For me 18 is more than fair and if WDW just offered that it would be over. And I mean 18 an hour this year. We get what we pay for. It seems to me Disney streaming is what's is losing all the money right now and it is the Parks that make the money along with some blockbuster movies here and...

    News Tron coaster coming to the Magic Kingdom

    Emails were already sent to AP holders with information about watching for the email on the 16th. The issue issue is if you didn't get one of those preview emails from Disney 2 days ago you won't get AP preview link email on the 16th either. I received a message through the app, never...

    News Disney World Cast Member unions to begin week of negotiations for wage increases, healthcare costs and more

    DO you mean the value of work to you or from the owners perspective? For sure many workers will take less money if they feel valued ie allowing them to actually like their job.

    News Disney World Cast Member unions to begin week of negotiations for wage increases, healthcare costs and more

    And I wonder if they just gave the 20.00 today and went to 24.00 by 2026 how much that would hurt their bottom line. I believe even in a union performance should be in that pay, so only the best people would be ratained under what I propose Is making 500 million or 1 billion less a year matter...
