When renewals and attendance drops off.

Higher prices -> lower attendance -> shorter lines -> less complaining, all while collecting more profit. Seems like a big win for Disney.

The time will come when they add one too many straws and attendance collapses. Unfortunately, that may be several more price increases away.

SIMPLE-when people refuse to go. Actually 7% is not bad. Our rate of inflation has been 20%. That means it now costs five dollars to buy what four dollars used to buy.

People will complain, but many will bite the bullet and pay whatever Disney charges.

No they won't. We didn't renew our annual passes last year because we were tired of the prices and the direction that Disney is going. Hello Epic Universe!

The 1st. time they tried to charge us for parking at the hotel, I asked why were they doing this after so many years of free parking at hotels as well as free parking we still got at the parks? The nice guy checking us in said "I'll tell you..... when we were at a meeting and this was being explained to us I asked the same question. The BIG SHOT giving the talk said to the entire room of employees "BECAUSE WE CAN!" He then said to me "I'm sorry" and "Walt is probably rolling in his grave." (I don't think he was buried.) I lived with it til they got "Woke" and I decided that I had enough. Good bye WDW. :(

Just a moment...

There is a break point in visit days total where an annual pass is better price than a ticket package. If you go down more than once in a year you may also do better with an annual pass.

The Disney World prices are always raised annually in October, the anniversary (fiscal year?) of the park opening. Other times sporadically.

Long time Disney World fans since park opened 50+ years ago and Disney Vacation Club members. Boy has it changed.

That was the purported definition when the word originally became common vernacular. It has since become the description of the over-the-top identity politics that has come to exist in our daily lives. There is nothing wrong with some reasonable social and racial justice until it becomes the sole focus of every aspect of every facet of daily existence. Jesus would not be woke by the current definition, he would be appalled.
