Park Ticket Prices increase 1/1/06

pyrateslife4me84 · 12-31-2005, 07:36 PM

So you all know, park ticket prices are going up as much as 5% for the start of 2006 (the 5% increase affecting one-day tickets, which will increase to $63/day). Longer stay passes will see smaller increases (e.g. a 2.5% increase for 7-day Magic Your Way tickets). I guess this is Disney's New Years gift to all of us

Ugh. Well all the more reason to invest in the AP. LOL

Meh, whatever. We'll all still pay and have fun. Of course, we have to remember that the price of everything else i the world is going up too

this year sea world was the first to raise it's gate prices and everyone knows that when one of them does it , eventually all will. Universal won't be far behind. also when they open a new attraction, they raise the price and like everyone else, the parks have costs they incur and as things like energy and labor costs go up; so will the cost of admission and room rates at the hotels

$63 for ONE day?!

Looks like I'll never be able to afford to go there again.

luvsongthatnvrends · 01-01-2006, 02:04 PM

wow... thank god for my pass... all the more reason to get it renewed right when it expires

Disney Wrassler · 01-01-2006, 05:26 PM

I believe atleast $45 is worth the admission price for the park, but $63 is just a straight-up rip off. I posted a message one day on savedisney, and told Roy that eventually it will get to the point where only the rich will be able to pay for admission. Heck, a lot of people already can not afford it.

Does anyone read the News section at MiceChat?

danyoung · 01-02-2006, 06:05 AM

Guys... I don't know a soul that would in their right mind buy a one-day ticket anyway. The $63 price is kinda just "there." You have to look at how cheap a 7 day ticket is now... that's where it's only like $28 a day or some crazy low price?

KevinYee · 01-02-2006, 09:32 PM

Or $21/day on a 10-day. I make this point in this week's update too.

You're odd.

aimster · 01-03-2006, 07:09 PM

I only do day trips to WDW (as I live only 90 minutes away) and fundage is limited. I can't afford a 7 or 10 day pass or even a 3 day pass really.

I still have a 1 day ticket from 1987... less than $30 back then.

Damn inflation and greedy execs.
