Time for dinner...........Soup with Grilled Ham and Cheese Sandwiches

 

[oybolshoi]

Grrrr ... what is up with this place today???

Double posts ... slowness in overall board movement ... PMs that take days to send ...

I'm outta here to do some work!

 

[oybolshoi]

I can't get over how much they're charging for MNSSHP now ... and premium versus non-premium dates ...

I guess we won't be going back to the Halloween party any time soon. That price is ridiculous and I think it's only going to keep inflating. Too bad ... it's a lot of fun.

 

[Verandah Man]

You must be upset Bendy, you posted it twice.............

PREMIUM DATE PRICE: 9/19, 9/26, 10/3, 10/10, 10/16, 10/23, 10/24, 10/26, 10/30, 10/31:

NON-PREMIUM DATE PRICE
Adults: $48.95 - ages 10 and up
Child: $42.95 - ages 3 - 9

Is premium pricing new?

Or is it just pre-purchase discount doesn't apply to all dates?

Any news on MVMCP?

Looks like I'm starting off Thread #6 in my usual style of not reading ahead.

Thanks Bendy.

Jeff, I posted the MVMCP prices as well ...


I've never seen premium pricing before - the only thing I ever saw, at least for the Halloween party, was that certain dates were not eligible for the various discounts that are usually offered.

Again, sorry I didn't read ahead.

It would be $162 now for us to go to MVMCP. Not sure if that will happen now.

I remember doing the parties for around $110 or less for the family (just over $40 for Suz and I and around $30 or so for DS). Getting rediculous at these prices.

I think the crowds will become less and less at those parties.

The P&P Party has really low attendance. We paid I think $132 for that, but we missed the discount date. It would have been around $104.

This may change the day we get off the ship now too.

 

[oybolshoi]

I totally agree, Jeff.

I remember Jay and I attending MNSSHP in 2003 for about $75 total. Now it's almost $100 as long as we attend on a "slow" night.

I'll miss attending because the Halloween party was so much fun, but at these prices it's just not worth it for us.

Not to mention they've seemed to have cut back on the party IMO.

Not sure what Suz will say about MVMCP. We've never been, so we may still do it IF we come down in December. Might look at some trade offs elsewhere on that trip to cover the tix.

Not sure what we'll do after the BOB. Remember, these are the prices for this year. Wouldn't put it past them to up the prices again next year. Might be MK during the day and Epcot or Studios (for Fantasmic) that evening.

$112 plus tax (so $119) for a busy night.

This is getting to be as much as a single day ticket.

 

[oybolshoi]

I was thinking about everyone for next year's MNSSHP, that's why I posted those ticket prices. 'Cause you know that 10/31/09 is going to be a "premium" event and I absolutely believe the prices will go up again next year. I wouldn't be surprised to see them top out at $60 per person for adults on 10/31.

But maybe I'm just being a pessimist.

Looks like Hazel and I will be heading up to Lake County after we get off the ship on 10/31/09..........
