Lightning Lane Premier Pass

[Sirwalterraleigh]

Ah ok. I think it's important that people understand that when you are commenting on the paid line skip services. If it's 15 years you weren't even there for FP+.

Didn’t miss anything…that was a cluster from the jump

 

[Sirwalterraleigh]

Time will tell…

Nope. Just numbers. They already are trying to sell more than they have to give. Can’t start letting people double up and hold it…like at all

I was joking. Last time I was there was 3 years ago.

Were you joking then or are you joking now?

 

[Jrb1979]

Joking then. We did go 3 years ago and found the value isn't as good as it was back in 2019. Sure the crowds were higher but I would rather that then $200 tickets and a more restricted FP+. As much as I hated FP+, availability was better and you weren't limited to riding an attraction once.

Ok so then you haven’t actually purchased Premier Pass for DAK (or any other park for that matter)

For gods sakes…why would anyone?

 

[Jrb1979]

No I haven't. We would buy the Premier pass over LLMP if wait times were justified for it. Looking at times today we wouldn't feel the need for paying for any of the passes.
Right now Flight of Passage is at 80 minutes the rest of the park is around 60 minute wait or less.

Because you have to purchase something for hundreds of dollars to know it's not a good deal?

Spending money…especially on excess…doesn’t directly correlate to intelligence.

When I ran my hotel (s), I had 2 in my investment group that were dumb as rocks and had big money. Was easy selling them on things.

What says "MAGICAL!!!" more than paying well north of $500/person for a day at MK to "skip most of the line" and ride things once? ($823, or $117/day, for a 7-day ticket this week without hopping, for the record)

Is this necessary every time WDWMAGIC reports a sellout?

There is no recession, economic downturn, inflation for the folks with money

There is no recession, economic downturn, inflation for the folks with money

Or a lot of credit…

I bought an electric mountain bike the other day (with some of the tens of thousands saved not going to the Disney parks last year) and the salesman was shocked I didn’t want to finance it. Gave a distinct impression it was very rare for people to just come in and buy a bike outright (which it probably is given the prices, my first several cars all cost less than what a higher end mountain bike costs now).

I think it’s another “value” example, I have no problem spending a few thousand dollars on an EMTB that I can enjoy for the next decade but paying an extra thousand dollars a day for my GF and I to skip a few lines at Disney sounds insane. There’s obviously people who find value in PLL though because it’s selling out, they either have a lot more money than me or a lot more debt though.

But... but... you're missing out on the whole vibe of the parks!!! You have the ride experience vibe, the parade vibe, the food vibe... it's all about the vibe, man. You don't get that vibe from mountain biking.

Congrats, modern young people. You've managed to kill yet another word with your misguided, moronic vernacular.

Wait until mom and dad cut them off their insurance and phone plans and they feel the “dirt poor vibe”

From what I've been reading, we have no idea of how many of these they're selling.

I doubt they are selling enough to significantly cut into availability for those buying the multi-pass.

We are planning a trip in either spring or fall of 2027 for a group of 10 and we may do the multi or single passes but definitely not the Premier Pass.

I would love to know to what extent these sellouts in PP affect multi availability and LL lines in general but it's difficult to get that info on this site without reading through the plethora of nonsense posted by two or three people.

Maybe the TOS should prohibit "posting just to hear oneself talk."

Oh boy, the folks who are using credit to pay for LLPPs and their WDW vacation because of recession, economic downturn, inflation, have bigger issues. Just my opinion.

Just my opinion, folks who are paying for LLPP have the cash to do it and are not bothered by recession, economic downturn or inflation.

Realistically it’s a mix of both
