DLR Admission 1-day / AP Prices Raised - Effective Today 9/15/06

[Sadako]

Disneyland® Resort Admission/Parking Price Revision Admission Prices for 1-Day tickets and Annual Passes, as well as Resort Parking have changed, effective today.

Summary of Changes:
Admission:
1-Day, 1 Park = $63 ages 10+, $53 ages 3-9, $61 Senior
1-Day Park Hopper = $83 ages 10+, $73 ages 3-9
SoCal/Vons Resident 1-Day Hopper = $78 ages 10+, $68 ages 3-9
Resort Parking:
Cars and Motorcycles = $11
RV's, Limos = $13
Busses, Trucks = $18
Annual Passes:
SoCal Select AP = $124
SoCal AP = $154
Deluxe AP = $239, Senior, CM = $219
Premium = $359, Senior, CM = $339
AP Parking Ad-on = $59

IMHO, not as bad as I feared. Only a $9 increase in the Premium AP which was my main worry. After last months rampant rumors, I almost feared it would be raised to $400.

My hope is that this will be an excuse to also raise pay for the CM's. But I am fearful that it is not!

Well, minimum wage is going up so chances are it will.

$83 for one day park hopper....ouch.

$359 is not bad at all for a premium ap IMO. You only have to go about 6 or so times to get your moneys-worth.

What's a "Senior, CM" AP? Seniors get a discount?
CM's get a discount? I take it that these are CMs that don't have "silver" and above privileges?

1-Day Park Hopper = $83 ages 10+,

Doesn't it bother anyone else that park hopper is only $17 short of reaching $100! Just makes me shiver.

[mikeland]

Phew ... we beat this increase by a few days!

That assumes that one thinks $60/visit is a reasonable entrance fee. Too bad many think that $20/visit is even more reasonable.

I thought CM's get in for free?

It's pretty effective though IMO. Because people will more than likely say 'Well the 2 day pass is only a little bit more...just get that one.'

CM's get in for free. But a lot of CM's have friends and family who want AP's too

[chadb14]

Didn't the prices just go up a couple of months ago?

Thanks for answering,

I was JUST thinking the same thing! The AP price has now gone up twice since I bought mine Dec 2004.

5-day parkhopper bought online is $179. That's about $36/day.
So, it now take about 10 visits to "get your money's worth," but only if you can go to DL in five days out of 13 consecutive days. I don't think there is a longer valid time length available anymore. There are discounts with a PAP, so if you plan to spend a lot of money (how much depends on how many days under 10 days you plan to go) buying the PAP might be the way to go for a one-time-long-time tourist.

Costco "Play 4 Days" tickets are expiring 11/18/06. Not parkhoppers, but parkhoppers aren't really necessary, given the choice, and they're $119, or $30/day.
That means that a Premium is now equivalent to 12 days at Disneyland. Assuming that this promotion will be available again, of course.
