Skipping A Year...or Two..

[Club Cooloholic]

Anyone else just kinda not feeling the love and skipping a year or more? I can't see going when they are doing so many upgrades but increasingly prices on so many things, reading tbe below like really soured me further. It will be our first missed year in a while.

Not news, not rumors. Should have went in general discussion

We went last year and that was a break of 6 years. There is definitely some pixie dust missing at WDW at the moment

Well if you're going to get picky - "it should have GONE in general discussion"

I think, with the new AK nighttime stuff and "new" Epcot rides, there is good reason to go. Late summer or early fall seems like an ideal time. Of course it all varies person to person.

Also, as others have said, this is also not news, rumors, or current events and therefore does not belong in this section (or it belongs in the other price increase threads). And I don't like the intention either, it sounds like you're just looking to get others to rehash their complaints about long-running issues. With that said, I'm out, zeeyah.

I'm on a bus riding back from DHS. We were so disengaged at the park that we wanted to leave hours ago (but had to stay for an ADR). That said, I had fun, but I feel like they are just letting things slide there until the new attractions open up.

We skipped it this year we were in Orlando for a week and didn't do Disney at all. Currently my husband and I have agreed to skip WDW until after Avatar opens but we are not skipping Disney totally. My daughter and I went to Disneyland a few weeks ago.

Yay - shorter lines! Thanks for passing this year!

Going to Universal for first time this summer. Will be our first time skipping disney in about five years... not a great time to go to WDW right now.

or three or four. Not going back until 2018 or 2019 depending on when things really get finished.

Haha yeah good luck with that. We are now in an era where 40 min waits for It's A Small World are not uncommon.

Now that we have young children, we're going every 2,3 or 4 years instead of once or twice a year like we used to. Kids ruin Disney World.

Seriously - what used to be a $1k trip for two (okay, my acronym got starred out - Double Income No Children) is now a $4k trip for us, our kids, and my mom (necessary for us to maintain sanity with the kids). I rack up about $1k in Disney Dollars every 3 years on my Disney visa which makes the week long trip seem like a decent value for the 5 of us.

We'll do national parks, Santa's Village and Story Land the other 2 or 3 years. When the kids are "too old" for Disney World, we'll leave them at home and start going again regularly.

I normally went multiple times a year and I'm heading back down next month after taking 3 years off. I probably won't go back until after Pandora opens.

You have to report it if you want it moved. The original poster can't do anything.

Why not try abroad?

My intention was to just post my reaction to a news story...thus why I put it in news. The ticket prices I knew about but the drinks was new for me. If you read my posts in the past I don't like to be overly negative. I just feel they are going a bit far, and raising prices while taking way longer to build than Universal does seems wrong. If I put this in wrong section I apologize an hope it goes to right spot

Off topic Santas Village or Storyland? Visiting NH this summer

Off topic Santas Village or Storyland? Visiting NH this summer

Both are great, can't go wrong. Slight edge to Storyland for better location and proximity to other things as well as size.
