As long as this is a "specialty" for the holidays only, then I don't have a problem with this but if this turns into the next new thing I don't think I like it because this is just another perk given to passholders when they already have enough and it makes a vacationer like me feel as if the company doesn't care about the customer that is the most "important" to the parks and that is the vacationer. This place was created for vacation, it IS A VACATION RESORT and I feel that if they're going to do a line just for passholders because they believe passholders "know what to do" then there should be one for "constant returning vacationers/DVC MEMBERS" as well because there are those of us who aren't "annual passholders" but return to Disney World and an almost yearly basis for trips and we are "more than capable of knowing how to handle the lines" as the next annual passholder. This I feel is a slap in the face to those guests and is just another way of letting vacationers know that their money/presence is not welcome because this sure doesn't feel welcoming to me. As I am a fellow DVC member I will expect the same treatment or else this is not going to be good for business in the future. Disney had better watch and wake up: there are already too many people that quit coming to vacation there years ago because of not only the outrageous price hikes on EVERYTHING but also because of the constant "perks" given to annual passholders. Now, there are also many people who were annual passholders who AREN'T ANYMORE because of the changes and price hikes. So...as I said, they better watch out because there will be people who find out about this and will be MAJORLY UPSET and as I said earlier will only hurt them further in the bottom line.
Reason why I'm being so dramatic is the fact that I know how they work and this is basically a "practice run" and if proven successful will turn into the real deal and only then will I start questioning for how long will I continue to be a DVC member/loyal Disney World vacationer? This is not a good idea in the long run and I hope to God it never turns into a real practice because it will be a major slap in the face to the other customers and will hurt business in the long run. I don't know who continues to come up with these "shenanigans" but they need to be fired soon. These idiots running the theme parks are not doing a good job in figuring out things. Now of course most of you annual passholders are happy to hear this but you really need to think about it because all this is is showing more favoritism and loyalty just because you have the ability to be able to come from within the state because you live in central Florida, when in reality it's not a nice gesture to the people who pay in the hundreds/thousands for a nice trip because they don't have that luxury of living in Florida. I know all about it and used to live there and was a passholder myself one time and I felt very guilty and haven't renewed my pass. Even though I don't live there anymore I still could have renewed it, but I didn't because it just didn't feel right to me. For anyone who is a DVC member/loyal annual vacationer, you need to feel slighted and be upset because this is just the beginning...
