oh 100% I would like him better if he had a morsel of personality. Hence why I made Josh the good guy in the equation. TBH they're all the villain. There is reason for price increases but even the Disney skeptic has to see that it's not been the usual give and take. We visited during 2020, January of this year, and just last month and the overall guest experience is down, which surveys have shown, but it seems that all they wanna talk about in interviews is "well people are paying for it so... they must like it." No we are forking out money hoping it improves our day in the parks. And so far it hasn't. Maybe it's never going to even out and the pandemic was just a test to see how they could take away and we'd still visit. I have to have some sort of sense of humor or I'll cry every day and never visit again, and I'm a crazy Disney lover so that's not an option!
Monorail MagicBand+ Introduces New Price Point
Guests with access to the pre-arrival MagicBand+ offerings are able to select from 70 MagicBand 2.0 and MagicBand+ designs. Each of the MagicBand wearables comes at a pre-arrival discount, but one of the MagicBand+ designs has introduced a new price point.
There are three MagicBand+ price tiers in the Disney World theme parks – $34.99, $44.99, and $54.99. Typically, solid color MagicBand+ wearables are the cheapest at $34.99, MagicBand+ with designs are priced at the middle $44.99 tier, and limited release MagicBand+ push up to the highest $54.99 tier. Here’s a look at the pricing on a Walt Disney World MagicBand+ display.
A lot of this isn’t even unique to Disney or Chapek. Corporations in the past few years have become increasingly hostile towards their customers. I don’t think they ever cared, but they hid it behind a thin veil. The mask has been lifted these past few years and they’ve told us frankly how they feel about is. The number of companies I’ve had to stop doing business with because they won’t even honor their own (terrible) terms and conditions grows by the month. The motto of “a happy customer is a loyal customer” has been replaced by “above all else, profit.”
I think you're correct. But it's hard to swallow because Disney gives me happy warm feelings and it's hard to admit that they are just another corporation and I'm just some low class consumer to them. The place itself, the cast members, and the people I chose to bring with me are what makes it important to me!
This is exactly right. Corporations are not our friends and won't do what's best for the customer - they only care about making money and that's about it. I think companies like Disney, Amazon and Apple are some of the worst in this regard.
Wow - A $100/person fee if you cancel within 72 hours or don't show. !!!
this is the only thing i have been waiting for since parks reopened!! cant wait to see it again in January <3 haven't seen it since my trip in 2016 cuz we left HS early in 2019 to go to the first Villains after party.
I'm ready to book this for my December trip!
I wonder how long the lines will be in mid December for this and will it be added to Genie+? Both are scary prospects, either waiting for hours or losing 2 hours of G+ ride time while waiting for your next window to open. Yikes!!
THIS!!!!
