Unfortunately, they do it since they can do it. Just like high end a golf course in Vegas is +/- $1,000 and most high end courses are $300++

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

I lived with it til they got "Woke" and I decided that I had enough. Good bye WDW.
Lots of hotels are starting to charge now for parking especially near airports. They brush it off as a third party charging it not them.

Maybe they sell less year round ones and more day passes? Doesn’t matter to me either way.

The number of adults who go there repeatedly without children/grandchildren is concerning.

Simple explanation. INFLATION affects everything. 7% is about right.

I don’t care. My annual pass is increasing by $30.00. Disney is my happy place and I will still be going often and with a smile on my face.

Disney for some not so strange reason is losing money hand over fist. So they are raising prices not just with ticket sales, but across the board with their other business. I dropped HULU like a hot potato when their prices went up. I don’t like supporting companies with their ‘values’. If you know what I mean. It’s no wonder why their movies as of late are huge flops at the box office. Disney has lost American confidence.

Usually I don't get in to these discussions, but concerning to who exactly and why?

Disney is woke, insane and morally corrupted. Walk away and don't give them any of your money. Therefore ticket prices won't matter.

be mindful of the PERKS
Cast Members are provided for fairly with Salary and Benefits (they deserve), crews clean and disinfect nightly, massive fireworks display, and the list goes on and on …

I don't even know anyone who would go to woke Disney. Now that they want to transition young children and don't use the terms he or she and so on.

So you don’t go to Disney, maybe haven’t gone to Disney, and don’t know anyone who would go to Disney yet somehow you know what Disney is like? How does that happen, did you stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night?
