Hey everyone--Just thought I would let you know that Universal has decided to raise their one day ticket prices to $67 to match WDW prices.

Let's not go down this road too far....
You all remember the last pricing thread flaming out then was locked.
I'd rather not see that again...although your point is well taken.
I wasn't flaming anyone, nor was I crying foul that they raised prices, nor was I accusing them of being greedy. I'm simply at a loss to understand the wisdom of such a move by a company that is trying to compete with Disney. From a business standpoint, I would think that they would want to have lower prices than their competitor, rather then raising prices to match a competitor. I just don't understand the reasoning behind the decision, that's all.
Also keep in mind that cedar point SIGNIFICANTLY lowered their admission AND food prices (cotton candy for a QUARTER!) yet their attendence is down even more so than last year.I wasn't flaming anyone, nor was I crying foul that they raised prices, nor was I accusing them of being greedy.
