I think it's the sentimental part of it. They "used" to be able to do xyz at Disney back in the day . So everything is filtered to the lens if that magical time.
You are so right on. I crack up at the people who appear to get physically angry because - wait for it - a ton of people still actually love WDW! Oh, the horror! LOL!
Some also wish the company to fail, trying to convince others , doesn't seem that way when Chapek and Christine report successes on a quarterly basis to Wall Street.
Newsflash for you, child. Just because someone sees something differently than you, that doesn’t mean they are burying their head in the sand. I have read your constant whining and complaining and I simply don’t have the same problems with what you are crying about. And judging by the crowd sizes, neither do countless other people. Something is not an obvious flaw just because you say it is. For example, I absolutely love the paid “fast pass” system and I know many others who feel the same way. You just can’t stand the fact that, despite your whining, WDW is chuck full of people on a daily basis, most having the times of their lives.
I like being able to more precisely pick a specific time than the old system seemed to allow, at least in my experience with it. I also understand that some people won’t pay the cost so it makes it a bit easier for those of us who will to land a preferred time.
How do you precisely pick a more specific time? We bought Rise for a window at 1:05 and were confirmed for 3:40. The same thing happened with Genie+ for SDD - we didn’t get the time we chose.
Not really sure, I haven’t experienced that. I have only seen LL purchases made for a particular time and the time selected was the time ridden.
It's a great reason.......right?
It happened to us, and Disney got an earful (pun intended) about it. This type of problem has been widely reported in the Genie+ thread so I know it wasn’t just something we were doing wrong.
Oh, so now you are going to tell other people if their reasons for liking something are legitimate?
Paying more for less anywhere makes zero sense to me.
That definitely sucks! And they most certainly deserved to hear about it. I hope they did right by you to your satisfaction. If they didn’t, that’s just plain wrong.
It's because your reasons are not true to the system.....I bet you also love going online at 7am the day of.Oh, so now you are going to tell other people if their reasons for liking something are legitimate?
I can’t believe I’m going to say this, but your constant whining about the fact that you can no longer afford a WDW vacation was actually a better look for you.
Therein lies your problem. It’s not more for less just because you say it is. I believe that I’m paying more for more. If you don’t agree, that’s fine. Just count your pennies and vacation elsewhere. You see, your attitude on this topic is part of the very reason why I like the new system!
I liked legacy fastpass and hated fastpass+. I did like maxpass at DL and felt that was the best type of “pay for” system since you were paying for convenience but everyone in the park still had access to all of the same fastpasses.
Yes, I prefer making my selections the day of as opposed to two months in advance. It’s actually much more convenient in my view. Are you seeing the pattern here? Just because YOU personally don’t like something, you think that’s how everybody else has to feel about it.
Four of our party of 6 were able to ride Rise even though the ride was delayed while we were on it. The other two were evacuated before the ride started so we went to guest services and got a refund (we needed to leave the park). Lots of long lines at guest services when we were there - not the best way to spend one’s time.
I hear what you’re saying and you make very fair points.
