Why can only AP's get to go and watch it on main street? Does Disney not care about non pass holders? In the last couple of weeks so many things have been for pass holders. DCA open late on Thursday, Fantasyland open late, exclusive movie previews. If TDA continues to alienate me I will make my pilgrimage to Disney in Florida instead.
I, personally, am finding the same recurring threads of why APs get this vs. ticket holders getting that rather tiring. There are fabulous debates on the topic active right now. Maybe this can be merged?
What Peter Pan thing is this?
All of these Passholder events are ways to try to get Passholders to change their attendance patterns. The ideas is to offer these other opportunities so they don't descend on the resort during peak times thus allowing a less crowded experience for non-Passholders.
Why should it be any other way?
I was wondering the same thing.
APer's generally spend less in total per visit then people who are buying day ticketsQuote:

On the day of the passholder Peter Pan screening, Disneyland is open from 10am to 8pm. 10 hours. A 1 day ticket is $87. Breaks down to $8.70 per hour if your there from opening to closing. It would take about 2 hours of your time for the screening. So, is it really worth $17.40 to watch Peter Pan? I think a better use of your time for a non passholder would be to go on the rides.Quote:

Exactly. This is another reason for making it exclusive and marketing as such. It is a selling tool.Quote:

My five day pass costs $260. Which equals $52 a day, $5.20 per hour, so $10.40 to watch the movie.Quote:

This vacation between tickets and staying in GCH is $3000 not to mention air fairs and spending money. I should have that choice.
I'd take a bit of alienation over being seen as a rube.Quote:
