Dynamic Ticket Prices - What we thinking?

[AstroBlasters]

They are doing it to charge more. So, bad for us.

Of course. That's why every company doing such does it.

The only surge pricing I have heard of is for transportation. Airlines, buses, Ride share, train etc….

Ticketmaster does surge pricing too

Basically dynamic pricing is associated with all the things you hate to book most— if you don’t like being ripped off, dynamic pricing adds extra stress and effort to purchasing decisions.

I see it as just another way Disney is putting short term margins over long-term loyalty.

I'll need to purchase 14 4 day tickets for June. With all this talk of dynamic pricing, would you purchase them now, or wait to see what happens. I know there have been special priced tickets in the past, but last years did not include Magic Kingdom and that's a priority.

According to the article I read, they don't expect to roll it out in 2026 so you're probably safe in waiting. They're already doing it in DLP so the technology is already tried on a small scale. But knowing Disney's IT to be what it is, this sounds like a giant cluster in the making for WDW.
