I was thinking the same thing. Also, was thinking that having this much notice seems weird.
Source is I work there. Plus it always happens during the first half of October

Didn't they already announce ticket prices would be going up in February anyway?

Just out of curiosity, how are people currently affording Disney world vacations? I’m assuming the vast majority either live locally in Florida, or make combined incomes over 100k -150k.
For families making less than 100k how are y’all doing it? I haven’t been able to go on a vacation in 2 years because I just can’t afford life anymore.

It’s sad, because my family when they took me to Disney world back in 2005 spent less than 2k on flights, hotel, and 6 day Disney tickets….now you have to sacrifice your life in order to have to fun for a week.

There are other less expensive options to find fun.

Absolutely, but this is also coming from people who are on a Disney forum, and are hardcore Disney fans that most likely go consistently enough.
It’s like saying you don’t need to buy steak in order to enjoy food. Sure, but that doesn’t help when everyone is enjoying their steak and your left watch people feeling full from their sirloin while your left starving.

People go to Davos and Majorca too but because you can't do that is no reason to be sad, no reason to be anything at all. Judging your life against others is a recipe for eternal disappointment

If everyone else is enjoying their steak, it’s because everyone else can afford the steak. That means it’s not that the steak is too expense, it’s you can’t afford it

Overpriced shoe leather isn’t steak.

That’s great. I’m glad you have a high paying job and are living comfortably. My question was addressed to those who aren’t as fortunate as you are.

I get your distaste for Disney latest ways, but we have plenty of six flags, cedar fair/kings island…y’all can’t hate Disney latest actions as much as you want but these, “theme parks” don’t even try a quarter of what Disney is capable of doing.
So yes, aside from universal there is no real direct competition and in the theme park business, Disney is the sirloin and everyone else (aside from maybe knotts, silver dollar city/dolly wood / universal ) are grade school mystery meat.
