You are correct. Parking at the Disney parks is free for resort guests.mcminnie said:I'm sure I read somewhere parking is free if you stay at a Disney Resort - or is it?

It depends on the level of AP you have as to weather you get free parking or not. Seasonal APs don't get free parking but regular APs and above do.HauntedPirate said:Don't AP holders and DVC members get free parking as well?
While the admission was cheap in 1971, you have to remember that you then had to pay for each ride you wanted to do in the form of ticket books. Thus it cost you a lot more than 3.75.sames1 said:As I understand it to Park a car at WDW now it costs $8.00 a day. That's more than the orignal price of a general admission ticket in 1971 ( $3.75 )
Wouldn't it be nice to own just the parking lots? Wow.
Welcome to a capitalistic, free-enterprise system.ryguy said:Whoever thought of charging customers to park there vehicles at a business so they can spend money at your business is a genius. Any parking fee is pure profit for any business. Its easy money. There is really no upkeep to a parking lot. Its a real scam. However, we are the fools who keep paying the price. Unfortunately, for the majority of us there is little we can do. It would be nice if at some point one of the major theme parks took the high ground and said we are not raising prices on parking for several years. They always copy one another. God forbid should Universal have cheaper parking than Disney or vice versa. Its kind of sad, slave to the almighty dollar.

That way they would get their $8 from everyone, even the people who don't drive...and the people would get "Free Parking" and think they they are at least getting SOMETHING for free at WdW.:animwink:
ADMISSION: $60...but parking is FREE FREE FREE!!!:sohappy:
That would preclude the impetus that the parking fee has on guests to stay at a Disney Resort, wouldn't it? The "free" transportation is one of the Resort Hotel perks.Scooter said:If Disney was smart, they would just figure in the parking fee into the admission prices.
