No Deluxe Inside staterooms?

Why did Disney forgo the Deluxe Inside staterooms on the Wish class ships?

Seems like a continuation of a long term trend over at least the last couple decades where the mass wealthy have been the ones spending the majority of the money. A middle-class family might be willing to upgrade up a bit from the cheapest room, but someone in the 5% of income wants a balcony, minimum. Just like they are adding concierge very quickly.

You know...why did they not include a Promenade deck, why did they make the Adult area so small, why are the elevators so narrow, why are the high-end diamond, purse, etc stores enormous and the Disney merch stores so small and sparse, and why are there so many Concierge rooms now? That's why. Though these ships are beautiful, they are not my favorite class.

Excellent points that seem to really line up with the direction that Disney and more companies are going. That is unfortunate for those who would like to sail DCL but prefer to have more affordable options.

I actually agree with you. They will never be my favorite class either, even though I haven't sailed them. But I will admit, I wouldn't mind sailing the Wish once, just for the theming. I feel like the Destiny is going to be the least desirable ship they will have, could be wrong, but that's my gut. Them putting just one hot tub on these ships for the general public is one of thier greediest moves. Want a hot tub, pay for concierge!

That pretty much sums it up in a nutshell.
