Ticket price increases coming in the next month?

[Tony the Tigger]

I just got one of those monthly newsletter emails, and they suggest a price increase is very likely in the next month because it's been over 11 months since the last one, and they typically do one every year.

Thoughts?

Considering buying the next AP voucher and just holding it a few years until Star Wars Land is done. (Current AP is still good until September of this year, and we never go 2 years in a row.)

Tickets always go up each year so it is highly likely it is coming soon. I would buy any tickets you plan to now before it goes up including an AP.

Tickets always go up and lately it seems to be right around the princess marathon weekend each year.

Question - does WDW raise ticket prices yet again to guarantee both lower attendance and higher profits? At what point does that stop working?

Yes, I can probably afford the increase, but I'm starting to feel abused. There's nothing magical about price increases exceeding inflation.

Universal also usually raises ticket prices etc each year. Not just Disney.

True, but at least they've been getting new rides and IOA is very very good. US on the other hand... seems to be as overpriced as HWS is currently.
But overall in terms of quality Disney was leading and then stopped investing which caused IOA to become on par with the Disney parks.

Has it already been a year? Feels like yesterday ....

That is not an answer to the question that was asked. An actual mommy blogger would have at least addressed the question. Keep practicing though.

Try to treat people with more respect ... you'll be amazed at how satisfying it is

Not sure how it could even get more expensive than peak MK pricing.

Add $2-$5 to the current price?

Add $2-$5 to the current price?

Well, yeah. But being able to rationalize it to the public too.

 

[Daveeeeed]

Actually it should... The price should be lowered.

It can't though because even more people will go.

Imagine the online news: "DISNEY for the first time in a while lowers prices for a theme park."

*random soul reads the article*

One of the best rides... The Tower of Terror which is being changed to a Gotg Ride in California is still there, and now the park entry price is cheaper!

It would backfire in more ways than one.
Just don't raise HWS, and be quiet about it while raising the other parks if it happens.

What's the expiration date on these tickets? I'm flying out for 2 weeks starting September 26th. I'm considering an early purchase

 

[GhostHost1000]

Shew it's about time. They have so much more they are offering now since the last increase.



...oh wait

A loaf of bread costs more than last year too.

At least Universals now has more slices.

I a non mommy blogger since I'm yet again not a mom addressed the OP's question in my first post on this thread....go play with someone else....

Don't fret, you'll get that free pair of New Balance one day and maybe even get to meet Fadra!
