Was capacity increased before December? I seem to recall it going up sometime in there. But no matter what, it has to be less than pre-covid, right? We've been going to WDW for 25 years now and the crowds have become the biggest detrimental factor for us.

Hoping to book for October this year. I assumed that capacity is capacity, right? So even if they increase it over the next 9 months, it still won't be up to the pre-covid levels. At least that's my unprofessional guess.

Our first trip to WDW was our honeymoon in 1996, the 25th anniversary. We've thought about Disney's 50th ever since then because it would mean our 25th. And here we are 25 years later, so we're going to book a trip in mid October and hope for the best.

Wow, you guys are really plugged in! That definitely sounds like a good indicator. I'll check back in with you tomorrow. Thanks again for your insight.

What's tomorrow? I mean why will that tell us about demand? I thought race registration was next week. Rack rate is pretty steep. Probably enough to keep me from going. Thanks for the info though

That's impressive! I'm balking a little at the prices. It's the common sob story now, about increasing costs. But It seems like so much more. And we typically end up with a discount or something when we book. If you don't anticipate anything for race weekend, it could come with a hefty...

Thank goodness for a new version. We saw the show a fee years ago and loved it, then they added the Up characters and it crashed hard. Let's hope for something better this time.

That's too bad. But I guess with the way things are now, they really don't really need to offer discounts anymore.

Wow, and I thought I was ahead of the game by thinking about it now!!

Got it, thank you!

Thanks for the reply. That's too bad. So we have to book based on rack rates now and hope for something better to come along?

Oh, Definitely! All this is assuming the recovery goes well and the doctor approves. So if you don't mind, I have a question about the whole coral thing. If I don't have a POT, then I get put in the back. I get that. But then aren't I always right on the edge of being swept (based on my...

Hello everyone. I mentioned in a different post that I'm considering the Star Wars 10k or half marathon in 2020. I'm curious about race packages. Does Disney offer any kind of discount or resort/ticket package for registered runners? Thanks in advance!

Hey everyone! I'm considering running in the SW weekend next year. I've got knee issues as well and I'm actually having lateral release surgery in a few weeks to help with knee cap tracking and advanced arthritis. Other than that I'm fairly fit and active as I can be. Just no running yet...

I guess that makes sense. I suppose it's just to the point where they can charge whatever they want for whatever they want and people will pay.

I'm not sure I understand. We always stay on property and the Disney transportation seems stretched to its limits in the mornings and around closing time. I would think allowing more people to drive themselves would alleviate pressure on the WDW transportation system, thereby saving money.

Wow, one night? I think that would trigger it for me too!! I'd be thinking about everything I didn't get to do!!

I definitely agree with you. Home is good. Work is.....unfulfilling, stressful, etc etc etc. It's certainly a major factor in the problem. Combining that with not having something to look forward to, to help me through the long work days is probably the crux of the whole thing. If one is...

You're right!! I've been reading everything that's come out of DL this past week and I can't wait for it to open in WDW. I'll be one of those grown men with a tear in their eye when they see the Falcon for the first time. I have to say, I'm more than a little concerned about the crowds. It...

You guys are so right. Planning the next trip is helping, even if it's just imaginative planning at this point. I coach a couple sports for our high school, so if I plan on using those paychecks it takes a chunk out of the Disney cost. Then we can save during the year for spending money...
