You are missing the point. No one said that you can't enjoy doing those things, but they don't cost money! It doesn't cost you to talk to the locals or going on a nature hike. So of course that is going to be a cheaper vacation. You are paying Disney to entertain you. I don't know why some of you are having such a hard time understanding this.
Its subjective. People like what they like and don't like what they don't. I think unfortunately Disney delving into controversial issues also kind of polarized their fanbase. It's a free market - I think the political stuff could hurt Disney in a number of ways for a while though eventually that will probably blow over - politics has a short memory. I visit once a year and have to admit the getting on attractions has gotten a bit more complex though as annoying as it is for the LL/G+ stuff to be premium I actually kind of like how I no longer have to decide what rides Im going to go on when 2 months before visiting or what restaurants/parks to go to 180 days or whatever it was pre covid. Id certainly prefer they go back to free advanced ride bookings but if they do I'd be fine with them doing it same day booking like Genie stuff is. Places like disney are going to change - some people are going to like various changes others aren't. Some changes work and some changes dont work and they get changed again. It's what happens.
Well its kind of been complicated for a while..... pre pandemic it was dining reservations 180 days out, Fast Pass 30 or 60 days out whatever it was. Generally its kind of hard to figure that all out so far in advance. Though I certainly would prefer they didnt make advanced ride selections premium, I kind of dont mind that restaurant reservations are closer to travel date and now you dont pick ride selections until the day of. So in my opinion the changes aren't bad in all ways.
That's not really an accurate assessment of 20k's demise - the ride was closed and left to rot for a decade before there was any meaningful movement on replacing it - and then once the land was reclaimed it was another half decade before announcing a meaningful replacement, and almost another half decade before that expansion was actually completed. "Sacrificed" is overly generous.
Can't disagree that personal biases definitely show in the moderation choices. And that influences the discourse of threads.
Did you report the comment that you believe should be deleted? There are only two moderators and I highly doubt they see every post.
Not to mention one is busy with
So there isnt a choice of resorts on property or off?
And sometimes words can convey multiple meanings depending on the context they are used. Of course my post wasnt saying I desire a free trip or a trip that would cost next to nothing. It did refer to guests having choices to book trips in multiple fashions so that they were not locked into spending only the most expensive items.
I agree. I could knock almost half of my upcoming trip if I went with a value over deluxe.
FWIW I interpreted this to mean you can pick from the WDW pricing spectrum.
Not trying to be a contrarian (I know how hard that is on here) but I would love to know how Six Flags is better than WDW in a few categories. The nearest Six Flags from me is Six Flags America and that is probably the worst theme park I've ever been to in my entire life in terms of operations and food. I've also been to Six Flags Great Adventure and that was way better than the one in Maryland.
Six flags is terrible. The only thing you could say is they have more thrills because of their coasters. Great adventure is trash, I can only imagine how bad the one near you is.
Going to Six Flags in TX in current temps 105-115 degrees to include humidity ? No thanks.
I'd like to comment on one thing. I wasn't talking about you, in fact I was defending you and trying to explain to the difference between desire to have things our way or the act of making a choice to do what you want to do to react to cost, hassle or whatever in our own way. I agreed with you! The way you put your statement was easily understood. Unfortunately the other guy chose to take it the wrong way. I rephrased your statement to what I thought your intent was in the event someone didn't understand by what was said by the other person that commented on it. I have noticed that as of late everyone seems to be defensive about everything. We have all, myself included, seemed to try to make something offensive out of things not meant to be. I quoted someone else, not you. I used your words to make them understand. It wasn't a critique of your words it was a critique of his understanding your words.
