I need someone smart to tell me which one is better for me (solo, POP in september, already got the 2 days free deal)

I feel like this meme

More people are willing to take kids out of school during Fall/Winter for better temps. It’s absolutely miserable in the summer.
Or maybe the typical family of 4 does not have or want to spend $5-10K+ to see the mouse.

Florida being hot in the summer is a constant and never was a problem prior to the massive price increases and diminishing quality of the past decade under Bob.

There’s nothing wrong with the quality. The prices are too high but they can always adjust them.

Summer is maybe 2 degrees warmer on average than it was in 1971…which by the way…the Polaroids of people waiting in long queues was great: a lot of collared shirts and pants

But here’s the thing: still down 18% or so total attendance since the peak…

People just not able to figure out how to book a flight anymore?

Eventually it will sink in. Oh who am I kidding? It never will…because some idiot in a nametag like HUGE has to tell you…

Cause apparently there’s a belief that there’s some watchdog is making sure nobody at Disney can be pinnochio?

The problem isn’t the average temperatures. It’s the wild swings and unpredictable streaks.

Translation: you’re kinda priced out…so guess the “deals” ain’t so great, huh?
It sounds like its the airfare they’re priced out of. I know for me personally I’m more willing to pay higher prices for the destination than I am for the travel to get there. I’m going for 7 days in June and the Disney side of things was very affordable (for me) but I almost cancelled because the airfare is way more currently than I’m usually willing to put down for a flight. I’m only going ahead because 1) Disney gave me a deal I cannot refuse and 2) I no longer live in realistic driving distance so it’s flight or nothing and flights certainly aren’t gonna get cheaper anytime soon.

If the deal was so good…it could balance out the uptick in air.

All money is green

So what was the “deal you couldn’t refuse?”
