Cyclenut- I think the issue here is that Disney essentially increased ticket prices once for everyone, and basically a second time for anyone wanting to stay more than 5 days. There is a blatant unfairness in penalizing customers who want more of your product.
For me, 5 days will probably be plenty in the future, as a party of 4 with no disabilities or strollers and naps slowing us down.
But last time we went as a party of 6 with a stroller and one napper. Five days was not quite enough time to do everything and feel "done" and ready to go home. The same is probably true for the party bringing grandma in her wheelchair. Grandmacan probably only do a few hours a day in the park, and she doesn't want to go to the beach. So Disney IS the vacation.
I think that's a big chunk of the disappointment.
The same was true for anyone who wanted to stay 8 days. So my guess is there is some demographic that uses those 6-7 day passes that they don't mind losing. But I don't know enough about it to hazard a guess.
