The theme park revenue has slowed slightly this summer. Experts say it could just be the intense Florida heat or Americans pulling back on vacations following last year's "revenge travel" phenomenon. Economists are saying the stock is at a low because the streamlining services are not doing well.

If they did would not have gone down this road.

perfect display of the failure of identity politics. ..
I bought it for the earnings pop and sold it right after the pop. . buying and selling stocks for profit can be a politically agnostic experience, however, spending hard earned money is a different issue. . The economy and businesses are cyclical, Disney will be a buy eventually along with alot of other stocks for making money. . the obvious answer to the question: "which is harder: growing a business profitability for 40 years? or screwing up the growth with a few greedy or dumb decisions?" which is why one doesn't buy and hold blindly forever, ergo selling and paying capital gains is the byproduct of successful investing. . and successful investing is not losing all the gains made over time. . . and why is prefer shorting dumb decisions and fomo than buying and holding. |

It's become from an annual vacation, to a once in a lifetime vacation for a family .

Better choice for water is bring your own and refill at fountains or filling stations. But water isn't the issue with Disney, all their prices are high and have been increasing steadily in recent years. Up until now the argument has been that the parks are full so the prices aren't keeping people away. Well, the parks aren't full now. Whether that is due to the heat, the end of the post-pandemic vacation surge, or the prices, Disney needs to pay attention.

Disney has become stale. The reservation system is intolerable. Universal taking their customers

I hear they have a great ESG score.

Both prices are pretty close, but if you have young children, you aren’t going to take them to Universal to get the crap scared out of them. It scares me at times, so can’t imagine spending money for a 2-10yo, unlike Disney that is geared for younger crowds and sold out nights the opening ticket sales.

Had friends in and their choice was Universal, because of the coaster rides. Expected to wait hours in line, bought a multi day pass. Found the food prices about the same as any theme park, but shocked at how small the crowds were. Bonus for them, got to ride their favorite rides multiple times.
I know that many local pass holders like us have stayed away from parks due to the heat, but wait time for Disney popular ride have 60 to 120 minutes. MK has been packed all year, other 3 parks not so much

I though Iger would right the boat but he has not been effective. Maybe someone who has less connections to the company would have the guts to do the right thing.

Dollywood
I like Dollywood Disney is too expensive with too much I don't care about - had some work conferences there that was enough
