Genie+ Pricing Structure

[boxer]

So the few times I've used this were when it was a 'flat' $15/PP, so I don't quite understand the new tiered pricing? Is the price accessible weeks out, or is this announced like the night before? We have an upcoming trip from 5/3-5/10, and want to get an idea if I'm going to be paying the $15 rate, or the $35 I've been reading about, lol

Sadly it's a surprise each morning. From what I understand Disney decides the price according to how high they expect the crowd to be.

It was up to $35 today before it sold out

You find out the price the day of. We're going May 2-9 and I have budgeted for $20 a day, knowing that if it's slightly higher, that's okay. We'd never pay $30-$35 though. I'm hoping it's a little slower the beginning of May, so the price might come down a bit.

We're going May 5-12 and hoping for the lower price too...I'm still not sure we will buy it, but the price will definitely dictate that lol

I was at MK last weekend and it was $25. I would love to see $20, but if you are needing to budget for Genie+, I would assume more

We have gone this time of year for last several years. It is not what I would call 'busy', so hoping for $20/PP---well, actually I'm hoping for $15/PP, but can live with $20, lol

This is our second time going this time of year...I really like it...nice weather, reasonable crowds, and Flower and Garden!

I recommend G+ for MK and HS. I wasn’t impressed with it at Epcot as selections are gone so quickly and I’ve never gotten it for AK (too few rides). So that’s another way to save some $$.

My guess is Disney will keep raising the price until sales drop off. Having to get up @ 7 am and start tapping on your phone in a race with everyone else doesn't sound like my idea of how to have fun on vacation.

I don’t think it will ever be back down to 15 pp. I would budget for 25 and be pleasantly surprised if it’s lower.

That fact that it sold out in record time today says all you need to know. People will pay large amounts of money, for something they had for free a few years ago. That is why it is here to stay, and will continue to rise.

And just FYI, the price is listed right at the top when you open the tip board (also located on the main app screen I believe so you don't have to click through like you're going to buy it just to check). Don't forget you can check it earlier than 7am to see the price and buy it if you want, I believe some time just after midnight each day if you happen to be up. lol

Easter weeks are the 2nd busiest time of the year.
We will see if it goes higher over the next 10days.

Christmas-$50

Last May we paid $15. This was first 2 weeks of May. Just this past February, again first 2 weeks, we paid $18. I think these are the only times we will go from now on. Disney is gouging us.

It's a very busy week but considering it's selling out at $35 in a matter of hours the past 3 days, I'm pretty sure prices will continue to increase. Will be interested in seeing what it costs this weekend. Sadly I anticipate it only going higher, at least this week.

Yeah its sad. Disney fans are the reason they keep doing this cause they just keep paying. They are well on the way to charging universal express pass type prices. Difference is with express pass, you can go on rides anytime you want. Won't shock me to see them charging 75-100 in the next 3 years

It can be the regular Disney fans but I think right now Disney is also attracting many people who have not travelled in a few years. They may have budgets that allow for a bit more or, this may be a once-in-a-lifetime trip so adding a few dollars doesn't make a big difference in the grand scheme of things.

For those of us who are blessed to go more often and can compare to what it used to be, it's a hard change to accept. For others who don't know any different, they pay what then need to.

Wait, are you saying it WAS that high at the end of 2022, or is this what you are predicting at the end of 2023?
