Apparently Disney is considering eliminating parking lot fees at its theme parks. If they go forward with the plan, you'll never have to hand over cash to a parking lot plaza attendant ever again!
Don't get too excited. The price of parking will likely be folded into a ticket price increase--maybe three or four bucks a ticket.
Its a brilliant "shell game" on Disney's part. They get to advertise "free parking" while saving money eliminating all those parking lot money takers. Depending on the ticket price increase, they'll potentially make more money per carload of visitors than the current parking fee. And hotel visitors and off-property shuttle bus riders will also pay the increased ticket even though they aren't parking.
Again, this is only a rumor. Has anyone heard more firm plans, dates, etc?
