First off I mean no disrespect with this post to the person who posted the response I've quoted, I'm just trying to understand something. I guess I'm one of the "new" passholders who'll be purchasing the "piece of garbage pass". Since I've never had an AP before, I'm trying to understand why this pass (I'm not a FL resident so I'll have the regular AP when we do finally purchase) I'm looking to purchase is "garbage"? I've had to make a slight adjustment to the savings I have to make our purchase but its a small adjustment...........any price increase stinks but I anticipated this (not at this time.......). Disney is always raising prices........don't they?
For my wife and I we see an AP as an opportunity for some advantages that will allow us to visit more than once a year. To get discounts we aren't eligible for now. What about that is bad? Just curious................

I honestly do not understand the reaction here at the Dis. Even knowing how negative some people are here about everything Disney does I'm shocked. Passes for us are up a whopping $80 and change. Sorry I do not feel that is excessive at all
Guess what not every benefit of something is going to fit someone perfectly. There are many that use photo pass and are excited for the addition. Prices go up every year, pretty expected. Prices everywhere in the tourism/entertainment area, not just at Disney go up too. At least they didn't take anything away this time.
Exactly. Prices increase. Everywhere.
I so hope so. If the percentage of disgruntled Dis Board members is an accurate representation of the general population then we should see a significant crowd drop. But something tells me there are more negative posters here than found elsewhereWhat if the increase in prices led to a decrease in guests? Would customers be happy then? What if they doubled the price of the annual pass, but it reduced crowds 30%? I think I might be willing to make that trade-off....
We are the same exception. DH and I are making our 4th trip this year, all staying on site and all meals on site. If we didn't get AP we would not have gone but once. This price increase is such a small percentage of our total spent at Disney it is very insignificant all things considered. $80 just won't price us outI guess we are an exception. We're AP holders that still spend far too much money on our hotels, food, and souvenirs, even with the APs.
I told DH and he said, that's all? I was expecting more.
