As it faces an uncertain financial outlook and the prospect of a prolonged recession, the Walt Disney Co. has hiked the price of its admission to its Disney World parks in Orlando, Florida. The price hikes — the second increases in less than. a year — will see the price of admission to the Magic Kingdom soar as high as $189 for peak dates.
News of the price increases comes as Disney CEO Bob Chapek recently warned of impending layoffs and hiring freezes as the woke company deals with a weak profitability outlook.
Walt Disney World Resort will raise the price of admission to all of its parks –

$189 bucks a ticket, plus ripping you off for parking , and robbing you if you get anything to eat.
No Thanks .

Still think there wasn't a red wave? These leftist entities we thought were prospering were actually going broke from their wokeness.

Who in their right mind would give Disney their hard earned money?

The only place at greater Disneyworld worth visiting is Epcot. The French restaurant there has the best lobster bisque you have ever tasted. It’s positively decadent.

The inevitable outcomes of a failed business model. A reckoning is coming for those who led the way in capitulating to the woke mob.

I was trying to think of a number that THEY could pay me to spend the day there. I think anything less than $10,000 for the day would not be enough.

It's your money spend it as you see fit. But Disney is not anyplace I ever wanted to go and I haven't. Somehow I have been able to live my life without over spending at Disney.

Make me CEO of Disney! I’ll set everything right! Snow White’s Prince won’t be gay nor will Davy Crockett swish. I would Musk the place! No rainbow flags anywhere!

We did Seaworld on our trip to visit family in Orlando last month. Hadn't been in years. Was great. The animals are amazing plus they do amazing research and animal rescue work. Universal looked amazing too. Think we will need to go there too.
We were a Disney family. We went every year, owned their time share, bought season passes, and genuinely enjoyed our trips and loved going back time and again. Our last trip was 2019. It was terrible. Cut back, price hikes, poor service, and the cast members had bad bad attitudes. Haven't been back and won't until things change.
The vanity of Iger and the stupid wokeness of Chapek have ruined it!! Both are small small men trying to stand on Walt's and Roy's shoulders. They are not fit to kiss the soles of those great men's shoes!!

If Walt Disney himself called me up, offered me $5,000.00, plus a premium hotel room, plus free admission to the parks for a week, plus free meals and souvenirs, plus free airfare out there, I still would not go!!!!
I would not even support the pervert groomers with my presence there!!!!!

#4.. It is good but any small village bistro in France (or St Martin) beats the pants off it in both service and food. We know. We spent 2.5 weeks wandering around the French countryside last year and have spent 20 total days in St Martin during the Covid stupidity. Good conservative family loving people in those parts of the world and it's all a damn sight cheaper than Disney. We love Epcot the most and miss it the most. I hear Iger and Chapek have butchered it with their changes in the past few years.

I dont care about their price hikes any more than I care about the price hikes at Epstein's island. And for the same reason.

Hmmm, DW, the old follow the money thing catching up with you now? And then you rape your customers with those $30 burgers, $35 nacho baskets, and those $40 beers?

Increasing prices will certainly help their budget, won't it? How stupid can they get?

As they prepare to launch a new movie that spits in the face of their main consumers. I guess it's true, you can't fix stupid.

Let's hope this is the beginning of a death spiral, where prices are so high that they drive people away, leading to too little income....and higher prices, which drive away more people.
The destruction of Disney would be a great thing.

I am so glad I am not bringing up my children in today's world, I'd probably be in prison for either disputing with the school committee or the medical community for their gender re-assignment procedures but one thing I'm sure of I wouldn't be spending any money going to Wally World 2

I live about an hour and 1/2 away from Orlando. I have never and will never visit, even though I can get reduced price tickets for Florida residents. Frankly, with all of the crapola that Disney has pulled this past year, it just isn't worth the gas money!!

D-World might just as well charge $600 per person since they won't get it anyway. Walt's Florida dream is dead in the water and nobody is crying over it.

Let's hope they price themselves out of the lives of young children.
Pull out the old classics for your kids to watch. Anything recent is coming from a place of evil.

I haven't been to DW in probably 15 years. Primarily because I loath humans in large herds, and the cost.
That said, people will be lining up by the thousands to throw their money away to satisfy their screaming progeny. And the slightly reduced attendance we be more than made up for in higher prices.

Normally, when demand goes down, price goes down. Not with liberalism. It's the customer's fault he doesn't want the product, therefore he should pay more for it. Make sense?
Normally, if supply goes up, the price goes down to one that will clear the market. Not with liberalism. Take CNN for instance. No one wants their product, yet they increase the supply. As in the "media", the customer is always wrong. What a winning strategy!

#4 DH and I also enjoyed the French Patisserie and the brats in Germany at Epcot. We took grandson for many years but I wouldn't do it now. I don't think I would like to see wighats and shoes flying through the air.

On Discovery channel there was a program of abandoned theme parks from past years. I hope I live long enough to see tumbleweeds blowing through Disney when they make that famous list.

I'm quite content with Disney memories of my youth - The Mickey Mouse Club, Spin & Marty, Davy Crockett, all pre-1960s Disney shorts and movies, etc.
My generation made Disney what it is today, but it's become so ungrateful and arrogant with its twisted perversions that it's now up to my generation to ignore it and figuratively burn it to the ground.

Disney Corp doesn't care if you decide not to come. Their new business model is to overcharge idiots who are Disney diehards and will keep coming no matter how badly they're treated, how much they're charged or how degraded the experience becomes. They figure they can make the same or more money by serving fewer customers, and so far it's working. Don't know much longer it will work, though.
I went to Disney World once in the late '80s and never went back. I loved Disneyland because it felt like something Walt built. DW felt like something a greedy corporation that's exploiting Walt's dream built. Much bigger, but with worse rides and all the extra space taken up by overpriced souvenir stands.
