As pete has said numerous times: people get on the boards and harp on about the cost pricing them out and that people can't afford to go, and they're never coming back, but guess what? They do! Attendance numbers show that! The prices increase and so do the attendance numbers.I know they are starting to knock the average park goer out of coming. Prices, like their cruises, are starting to keep the lower and middle class out of their vacation plans all together.

They may price SOME people out, but it's clearly not the majority. Or even a relevant minority.
Disney wants people to come and spend money, so they won't care about the people who spend the least, who can just afford to go, bring their own food and snacks, don't buy spiciness, share memory maker packages, and all the cost saving tips (I'm not saying they aren't brilliant and that people should absolutely travel this way! God knows I'll try to save money where possible. But I don't sweat over saving $5 on undercover tourist tickets, or upgrading a week long stay to PH and water park fun and more tickets)
But unfortunately for those people, disney doesn't give a you know what.
Sad, but true.
