I know this isn't a cost issue but I think it plays into the whole conversation of "value". Not only are we paying more than ever, we're also dealing with an increasingly complex system for planning our visits which also detracts from the overall experience. I think Disney has reached a point where they've made it unnecessarily difficult.
We don't plan way in advance so not all of this affects us personally, but the situation now is that you can make your ADRs at 180 days out but can't book your FPs until 60 (or 30) days out so it's impossible to conveniently coordinate your attraction times with your meal times. Oh, and we may change park hours as little as 15 or 20 days out in some cases so you may find out last minute that the plans you made won't work anyway.
Would it really kill them to release park hours well in advance to help people decide when they want to visit, then open FP booking and ADR booking at the same time? They aren't new at this. They've been doing it for nearly 50 years. They should have it figured out by now.
