$250 MNSSHP incoming soon lol

Maybe for Halloween itself. But MVMCP is where we will likely see the top-end price come close to $250. My personal guess is they touch $229/person without breaking a sweat, with an outside chance at $239/person. The floor will likely rise $10 as well.

This is what happens when you made decisions based on emotions and not logic. Remember how some people said “how I spend my vacation dollars doesn’t impact you”? Yes. Yes it does. Because if you stopped giving them your money without a second thought, they don’t have ammo to keep raising ticket prices.

It took how many decades for WDW to pass the $100 ticket threshold? Just a few more years before they blew past $200. What’s the over/under on $300? I’d say before the opening of Villains Land.
Its out of control.

My magical thinking wishes Josh freezes ticket prices as a publicity stunt.

It will never happen. :(

Remember Josh was thinking about affordability today, just as he does everyday.

Remember that line of BS dusters?

And the demand is so unprecedented that they’ll all “sell out” 4 days in advance

Las Vegas has raised price so much people are not going. When will the lemmings say enough is enough

The major problem is that the stupid high pricing changes the demographics of the guest. Families are out, Disney Adults are in. If you look at revenue and OI it looks great…for now. But anyone with half a functioning neuron knows it’s not sustainable.

You already see the beginnings of it with the change in busy seasons, attendance that never recovered from the shutdown and is on par with 2014. The low information dusters will say that it’s an intentional strategy to manage capacity for the better guest experience….right…

Probably worst off is the damage to Disneys reputation and the negative word of mouth. There’s a lot of damage being done that will be very evident in the near future if this keeps up.

There are still many families at WDW at least from what I see. Honestly I’m surprised but there are a lot of people with money willing to spend it.

As far as the guest experience is concerned, it doesn’t matter whether lower crowds are intentional on Disney’s part. The peak crowds in prior years made the parks much less pleasant. It’s been better lately.
