I had a problem last Christmas with Disney. I have stayed at every resort and wanted to try a new one on my list. Thus I was going to POP Century. I was also suppose to wait for a call however didn't trust Disney to wait. Disney wanted to put me in AS resort ! I said that I had already been there and "Don't think so". I explained why I chose the PC resort .
After 3 phone calls they finally got me 11 nights at AK lodge Savana view with tax for $109 per night. What a smart move for them as I have returned to that resort an additional 3 times. Its the best!
I honestly believe Disney could referbish the resort in the spring!
However we are all missing the point why its closing so quickly.
Their stock is at an 8 year low mmmmm!
LOS ANGELES, Aug 2 (Reuters) - Shares of Walt Disney Co. (DIS) fell sharply on Friday to their lowest levels in nearly eight years after it posted weak quarterly results from slack theme park attendance and warned of worse conditions ahead.
Disney's tumbling share price also sent stocks of travel and leisure companies downward in sympathy as much of the company's current weakness was tied to sluggish tourism at Disney's theme parks like Walt Disney World in Florida.
Debt rating agency Standard & Poor's weighed in, too, saying it may cut Disney's long-term corporate credit rating.
Following Disney's fiscal third quarter earnings report late Thursday, Chief Financial Officer Tom Staggs said theme park reservations were down about 10 percent in the current quarter, leading to lower-than-expected fourth quarter profits.
"The company's outlook was decidedly more negative than our expectations," Merrill Lynch analyst Jessica Reif Cohen said.
