Thank God my son is an adult now, and we both have experienced Disney theme parks in the past. This is by far the lowest of the low from their marketing dept. Seeing the actual question asked in the survey on here, there’s NO that was taken out of context. Pure greed from this corporation, but that’s exactly where the world is now. They are fishing for what your expenses will be in the future, and in the most macabre way possible. I will never step foot on any of their properties again, nor subscribe to Disney+ or buy merchandise. The people that created this survey should be fired. They can raise prices all they want, but not a penny from me!
Keep raising your prices Disney. The more people you lose, the quicker you’ll start losing money. I’ll NEVER go to either theme park, that’s for sure. Aside from being expensive, it’s dangerous and full of crazy people.
If I want to enjoy Disney I’ll watch a Walt classic.
At this point, it’s too late. They refuse to admit making any mistooks. They even “double-down” on some of their disasterous decisions. This one — and constantly squeezing every nickel (since there are not more pennies) parkgoers have — seem to be their favorite downfalls.
Not sure how if Disney is asking these questions, this is a proper way to conduct business?
But the price of a vacation to WDW has forced many to forgo going to Disney. But if you have a house with low mortgage, make 150k a year and are frugal, then a Disney trip can be done. But the youth of today 20 to 35 with a young family and typical yearly base pay of 80k, may find that they have to save for a few years in order to take that family vacation. I remember when I was younger in the 70’s and a yearly income was around 35k and you could buy a home for 70k in CA, cars were 4k and a disney trip may cost you $200 for tickets and 2 days in a hotel. Very doable back then. Now that trip for 3 is easy $2000 for 2 days, again average salary is 80k across the country and housing is 400k. Somewhere the average is out of balance.
I agree with all 3 of the above comments. Disney is getting ridiculously expensive for EVERYTHING. The t-shirts are of cheap quality, from foreign countries, and way overpriced. The price for tickets are way too high considering how many rides are “down for refurbishment”. Restaurants are not worth what they are charging for their meals. Disney should be ashamed.
The funny thing is you try and verify this statement about Disney and there is nothing other than this dudes assertion that it’s true. No screen shot or any other verifiable proof yet all the sheep swallow it without question. Don’t look up.
I just got back from Disney World. I gave myself a budget of $600 (someone else covered other expenses…such as half the meals and the resort & travel) for six days there. I went overbudget. Luckily, it was only SLIGHTLY overbudget.
And this was WITHOUT any perks (such as LL or “after hours”).

I meant NO WAY that was taken out of context. My anger at this made me miss a word, ha!
