Lightning Lane at Walt Disney World

[uncle jimmy]

Selling out in February? Is there a US holiday or something or have they just succeeded in creating false demand?

There are also cheer groups and high school marching bands and choir groups all down there this past week.
Add to that folks who have arrived early for runDisney Princess Weekend next week.

Extremely surprised it has not hit that # yet seems clear as day people are paying any price they put out there…. People imo have made their minds up before getting down there whether or not they will be buying. If anything people will only choose to add it if lines were unbearable the 1st day in parks…

 

[wendysue]

Wow. So stupid! As if the 160.00+ price to walk in the gate isn't enough.

 

[CalebS]

I havent been since December 2022, does it seem like with the price being higher that there is more ride availability?

 

[Mark Dunne]

Coming from the U.K the jump has been getting higher each year ( and i still think we are lucky with the date date tickets ) but we used to stay in A.S for £2000-2500 INC tickets about 7 years back, now its £4000 plus, when we see the ticket booth prices for day passes, i realise how lucky we are, l feel bad for the locals, its so much money, and G.P is almost a must these days with crowds, they have to start to give us more, cant even buy merch and have it delivered to front the park ( or resort ) so your carrying around merch all day with hardly anywhere to put it, then get to tron ( if you lucky ) and shove it in the lockers, it feels like a shareholders park now, not the Disney we so wish to see come back. Mr Iger's done nothing to reverse mr Chapek's decisions ( unless I'm missing something ) i thought G.P would be included for resort guest's, plus give us an extra hr AM, half hour is pathetic, so many family's getting there kids up at the crack of dawn for a measly half hour, shame on you Mr I. for us its the castmembers, and public that make the magic, so thank you all, cos we love it !!!

Absolutely not

That’s not how math works. More people…less rides…higher price

Honestly, $99 for the multi-park option in the next few years wouldn't surprise me.

That’s the direction…but it’s a hard sell unless it’s unlimited

You always got better rates too…

But that price for all stars just isn’t good. You have the US price pain now - it seems

Thanks for answer, to be honest both my wife and i do feel for you guys, hey all in the same boat now, at last we can moan together

It’s not about complaining…it’s more genuine concern from fans about when or if they’ll start to provide more value for their extreme prices?

Because it’s fallen like a rock for many years

Unsustainable trajectory. Just living off the label at this point

Hi , that's all we can afford, and in January now, used to visit you guys regularly through the year, now its narrowed to january, when i priced the same hotel, but moved the days on so feb was shown ( so end jan beginning feb ) it jumped almost £500, so we look for say 21st jan for 10 nights £4300 for pop, flights and tickets.( bringing my mum in 2025, she's never been to America before, let alone WDW ) we loved Coronado springs, but the price is off the charts now, to stay at a moderate we could only afford 7nts, now not at all, a real shame, these parks are meant for everyone, we don't have a lot of money, just save to come over each year, that's our big treat. people think we are mad, but we love it sooo much, but each year for sure its a stretch.

No explanations needed…and nobody’s judgement matters but your own

I was just commenting that seems like a really high price for a UK package

 

[Laketravis]

Nope. I was there last week and can honestly say we accomplished the least in twenty years.

I refuse to pay for Genie+ and LL, instead relying on old school strategies like rope drop (which is becoming least effective) and doing popular attractions while most are doing something else (Fantasmic). Couldn't help but chuckle at the ones who use LL for even the lamest of attractions, and wonder what they are thinking when they use LL to get into a mile long line for Rat.

There's also a reason two top-tier attractions only offer a virtual queue and LL with no standby.

Not sure if this has been discussed before, but I just realized how much Disney emphasizes "Theme Park" when addressing Animal Kingdom. I know DAK struggled initially to convince people it wasn't just a zoo, but are they still finding that as an issue?

Yeah, that is funny. Especially if you think that anyone who doesn't know DAK is a theme park is probably scratching their head wondering "What's an "EPCOT"?"

I've also heard DAK was a football player, but I'm easily confused.
