The kids are totally on their own...so this isn't about safety. The TA is making a fortune off this trip- and when I'm paying $1000 more for one person to go for 2 days than I paid for a family of 3 to spend 5 days there, I don't expect my kid to be treated like a second class citizen. To be honest, this is why we haven't gone as a family for over 8 years. The class system at Disney is very offensive to me. They
"invite" choirs and bands, which is really a money grab and not an honor, but then limit the value the kids can get out of their day. As it stands, the kids will be at a major disadvantage compared to guests who can use MaxPass. Considering it will be Thanksgiving week, you know those white ropes will be out early...and, if they close a park, my understanding is that the tickets the group has will no longer function as hoppers.
I am kind of seriously regretting paying for him to go with the school!
