Its not about 'afford' its whether it makes good business sense. Show any shareholder that their investment is working at a loss and you won't hear 'oh well, we can afford it'![]()
Business wise, extra magic hours is a significant perk of staying on property. If they can keep people on property that means more revenue of course, people will do their eating and shopping with Disney. If they cut PM EMH by 33%, they may see decrease in room sales. Penny pinching doesn't become anyone. They just had another ticket rate hike June 3rd and if they can't compensate for expenses through the sale of park tickets, food, merchandise, and the high priced hotel rooms then I really have no suitable answer for you. Disney can afford it, and it just looks like penny pinching to me. I read somewhere that the nights being cut to 2 EMH coincide with Halloween Horror Nights. So if it's a temporary cut then it makes sense, but if it's permanent I am sure folks will be displeased and complain.
