February 2016 Disney World ticket price increases and new tiered 1 day tickets

[wdwmagic]

Considering they shut down at the whiff of a chill, do they expire as well?

Yes, Dec 31 2017.

As we all said, we don't begrudge a company making a profit. If the parks kept the quality and upkeep they used to get, I don't think many people would be too upset. However, since the quality has declined, the price in proportion to experience is not justified. Maybe once Avatar and SWL are, we can say, "that was worth it".

 

[EpcotCenter82]

Any other details on the unused tickets expiration? As in tickets bought with today's pricing?

What other details do you need?

The ticket expiration is only for one-day tickets, correct? The expiration on multi-day tickets still does not kick in until it's used?

But we're paying for the construction of Avatar and Star Wars before we are able to actually visit each area with the continued increase in ticket prices.

Yeah...that was my mistake in not reading it correctly.

That's the issue. Prices have gone up, yet with the cut backs the experience is being impacted.

I have a trip in April and I'm really looking forward but I think once my APs expire later this year. The family and I will be looking to go elsewhere in 2017

What are the dates for each Tier?

 

[asianway]

Yes, Dec 31 2017.

Coming soon: temperature based surge pricing

 

[Clamman73]

I decided to grab one of those 5 for 4 day park hoppers at $383 from UT... I'll just prioritize that ticket this fall and continue to hold on to a bunch of no-expiration park hopper days I have.

This will just affect merchandise and food sales. With all of the extra money they're making from this , they could at least hire more construction workers to speed up their snail like building pace . We all know this money is going to help with the decline of ESPN , overseas parks, and WDI spending.

course we are.

Loved the burger I had at Sci Fi!

We honestly haven't eaten at too many TS restaurants.
Just:
San Angel Inn (multiple times)
Tutto Italia
Tony's Town Square
Sci Fi

I know that list ruins any street cred I could have had, but we usually aren't in the parks for a full day.

Now my wife has been to many, many more as her family visited often on vacation.
I had never been until moving down here in 2010.

Tonys was good. I don't care what anyone says. I have had one on of my best meals on property there. I don't know if they still do specials but I had a pork shank there over 12 years ago that I still remember. The trick is to not order off their boring pasta menu.

The question is what doesn't expire at Disney

Disney Turkey Legs last forever.

New Walt Disney World 1 day ticket pricing and tier date range details

 

[BoarderPhreak]

Maybe it's just me... But I think that paying $346 for each adult and $324 for each child (based on 4-day tix to hit each park once) - or $1,016 for an "average family" of three... Is just INSANE.

...and that's without any lodging or meals!

The one-day seasonal pricing will catch the headlines but the real story is the price increases of multiday tickets. 2-to-7 day Magic Your Way tickets are up about 7.5%, with 7-day tickets up over 10%.

I'll need to crunch some more numbers but these appear to be the biggest increases since 2006, Bob Iger's first year as CEO.

 

[Mad Stitch]

Did the AP price change?

 

[threvester]

????? A 1 day with the waterpark and more add on is more than buying the two tickts seperately ???

Oh, so the dates of value pricing are every day not blocked out for it, regular are the blocked out value dates that arent blocked out for regular and peak is whatever is bocked out in regular? Thanks!

I have a spreadsheet if you need it.
