Half of express passes are a “perk”…that changes the dynamic a ton.
You dont think this company is worth that ?!? Get rid of all the dead weight. Iger to start & get Disney back to what they need to do & right the ship.
It would sell for that…but I think people are vastly underestimating the depth of damage and longterm consequences Iger has done to Disneys business…
Which makes its effect tenuous at best and frustrates your customers who need to Come back if you are to be successful

Just by going too far.
When your primary product is “trust”…you do everything you can to protect that.
You don’t overcrowd your parks for more micro transactions and upsells…you don’t remake every movie ever made to get cheap ticket sales…you don’t make bad Star Wars to intentionally whizz or the fanbase…
…just off the top of my head
Thing is, they make much more off of the multi-day folks on everything else (food/merchandise) which is why they "discount" the multi-day tickets - it's the entire reason for their being.
I just priced out a 5 day hopper the other day..
My 5-day hopper from last September was $570 (And I think I used a Sam's Club discount for it). The previous October (about 3-ish weeks later on the calendar), the same ticket was $500.
Listen i totally agree with you on all of that and if Disney does ever get sold the “loyalty” factor is now in question as well because people will no longer feel its “Disney”. In the end tho. Put out a great product people will pay. Its still a vacation destination and still can be a break from the real world Disney use to be in all its glory. Anyone who would buy this would need to and obviously know and understand this. Lets face it. They have the land there to build and expand these parks to the capacity needed and my guess is that can be done for less money and in less time than Disney could ever pull off and you would get the same if not better quality.It would sell for that…but I think people are vastly underestimating the depth of damage and longterm consequences Iger has done to Disneys business…

What dates? Remember that they've shifted demand so this month and the next two are "busy season" dates now.
That's crazy. I know they aren't the same but that's double what my wife and I pay for our Cedar Fair passes with dining included.
For my family at that price it's too expensive. Especially now with the cost of everything. For $750 I can buy a lot of groceries
Don't forget your parking with those too. That Disney would also have you paying every day.
The concept of explicitly targeting those "with money" was starting to be rolled out in B school marketing classes on the backside of the Great Recession around 2009.
Listen i totally agree. I was really hoping my daughter didnt want to go back this year… she still wanted her Disney fix but only for a shorter trip during the break.
