Family of four. We went back in February. We did 7 days, 6 nights. Went to a park everyday but 1 (had a "down day" at the resort pool and did Disney springs). Stayed on the property. Total cost, in a mid hotel (Carribean Beach) was around $3500.

Quote HistoryQuoted: You might be surprised to find out that you can go to Disney and go do stuff outdoors. The last time we went we spent three days at the park and then 7 days on the beach with one of those days out shark fishing. Next month we will be spending three days at parks although not Disney this time and then 7 beach days while me and my son are going to go gator hunting one of those days. Wouldn't surprise me at all as I have been there for multiple work events for multiple days. So many better cheaper or expensive options than giving money to those woke brokedicks around a bunch of Karens/Kevin. Your outdoors vision differs from mine. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: We took our kids a couple times a year when they were young. It wasn’t too bad, we always stayed in the budget hotels like Pop Century. It was for the kids to enjoy. I personally hated every trip, not being on a family trip but the way it’s handled and the nasty ass people. You stand in line only to get in a room thinking you’re about to get on a ride only to be cattle rustled into room with a hundred hot, sweaty, stinkin, pissed off people from all over the world. Whoever said it’s the happiest place on earth is a lying piece of shit. I’m glad we went, we’ll probably take our grandkids when they’re ready, but if that place was erased from the earth, I wouldn’t give a shit. “It’s the worst fucking place in the world! But I’ve been several times.” “I wouldn’t bat an eye if that hell-on-earth burned to the ground! Can’t wait to take the grandkids.”

I would love to take my boys but Disney can’t just shut the fuck up. I don’t even care about the prices, but I fucking hate the company as a whole and everything they stand for.

What I have seen at least for Disney land is the majority of people there are residents with season passes…which for California are no that expensive. So you get most of the park overcrowded with season pass holders and then vacationers that are paying out the rear to go.
They keep on raising the prices to try to make the park less crowded, yet still the parks are at capacity every day. If Disney stopped the season pass program I feel they wouldn’t need to charge so much for non pass holders… |

Under no circumstances would I give Disney a penny of my money. They are the epitome of corruption, liberal/deviant ideology, and greed. The list of companies I now refuse to deal with is growing quickly. Im not under the illusion that my avoidance will in any way affect Disney, but I can honestly state that my principles govern my actions. Anyone not disgusted by Disney isn't up to speed on their involvements.

Since when does Disney have an obligation to cater to anyone except those that will pay the price of admission?
If people want to pay the Mouse 6 grand for a week, more power to them. Full disclosure; we took the classic family trip to Disney World in the early 70's. My folks were cheapskates; we had to stay at an off-resort hotel, all four of us crammed in one room, and commute in every day. Best. Trip. Ever. |

if it means there will be less people and I wont have to wait in 2 hour lines for every ride I would be 100% ok with it. as it stands, everyone that lives within an hours drive has an annual pass and goes 300 days a year. the family has to take a day off work, so theres at least $500, then we have to buy tickets for 5, thats about $700, then an easy $200 for food. and for that we get to ride 4 rides, and spend 10 hours in lines.

I’d never pay to go to Disney. Not when I could take the family to Europe for less.
But the article is a bit flawed. If the sandwich feeds 8 people, then who cares that it costs $100. It’s more $100 / 8 to set it equivalent to a normal sandwich cost. |

"A five-day trip to Disney World for a family of four now costs $6,033, according to Business Insider.
This includes tickets at a cost of $2,316, a four-night stay in a family suite at one of the park's budget hotels at a cost of $2,617, and the lowest cost dining plan at $1,100." I read this part to my wife as justification why we're not going, instead I got, "no, we're going before it gets more expensive." Kharn |

I've been to Disney World. Very beginning of January actually. The lowered capacity was awesome, I couldn't imagine how crowded it would be (and how long the lines would be) at full capacity. As nice as it is I'm not sure I'd spend the money again and we didn't even stay on property. We actually found a "suite" at a nearby hotel listed on airbnb for a fraction of regular price because they were trying to fill rooms, so like 1/4 what the cost of staying on property would have been.

I live in Florida; I have not been to Disney in 15 years (when the kids were young, bought the tickets at a steep discount through the Army MWR system). I can think of 100 things off the top of my head in Florida that are far more entertaining than Disney without even trying. If one is into theme parks, I recommend Busch Gardens; not only is it cheaper, more compact and shorter lines, you are also closer to the beaches, the restaurants are better and cheaper in Tampa, Hotels/lodging is cheaper, and there are far more "local" attractions with more variety within 40 miles of Tampa (everything from mermaid shows and airboat rides to stock car racing) than the Orlando area. For 6000-ish $, you could live like a king in the Tampa Bay are for a week. Not to mention Harbor Reloading is in Clearwater and the gun stores are better around Tampa.
<----Do not live in the Tampa Bay area, but went of school there; my kids are currently enrolled in the same University I graduated from. |

Went to Disney World as a kid in 1977.
IIRC it was $200 a night back then at the Contemporary Resort Hotel. 3 days was what it took to see everything back then before Epcot. |

For most Americans, Disney World and Disney Land are the closest experiences to communism that they can experience today.
The price of everything is inflated, immediately. The leaders are promising some utopian dream land, you have to stand in line for food, pay out the ass, it tastes like trash. Wait 3 hours for a ride that's 3 mins long. |

When our son was young we used to go almost every year. We would always do the entire experience and stay on property.
We haven’t been in 29 years since our son outgrew it. We are headed to Florida this fall and told my wife I would like to drop by for a few days to see the changes. The more I thought about the lines . No way. We will wait until the grand daughter can get something out of the trip and take her. |
