Disney world Florida



Wasn’t there rumours last year that Disney were pumping up the prices as too many were visiting the parks? Basically they’d rather charge more, and allow less in?

£555 for the popular dates, June probably comes under low season.

I think we were talking about different things. I thought he meant the flights.

He's right for park tickets, but it'll probably average out as kids are slightly cheaper.

Class place but the parks are massively overpricing people out of going. Universal have put the parking fee upto $32 a day. Remember years ago when parking was $5. Tippings gone upto 22% as well I think

Tipping has gone mental over there.
You've got f***ing vending machines asking for tips man :lol:

Basically aye. Numbers are up so why not shake folks down until they say no. Sadly, people are paying it and show no signs of demand going down.
From a shareholder point of view, why would they not?

Its annoying though.

The fact they are bringing back free dining means it's getting more back to normal.

It's the first decent deal they've had since 2020. It's really good staying on site with everything included. Not alcohol, but you get/got one with both meals.

You could even get an alcohol with a kid QS and buy them a juice.

It’s the tipping that puts me off gan into the States again. I’m not bothered about the mass shootings, that’d be just bad luck but the toppings gonna get you no matter what.

Just mentally mark everything up by 20% when you decide where to go. Or get takeaways. 😂

Decent advice for anyone going is don't bother with car rental (and all the hidden costs that go with it) Uber is the way, saves $100s.

Are rental prices through the roof still?

It was £500 for a fortnight (or thereabouts) for a mini van last time I was there. Obviously pointless if you're staying on-site, but might be cost effective if you're in a villa.

Parking costs are a joke. I would be tempted to be cheap enough to just park at the springs for free and Uber it in from there. 😂

Aye we’re gonna Uber when away from Disney.

Been contemplating getting an Uber from the airport as well, f***ing the transfer off.

That's the other thing they got rid of, the free transfer from the airport.

If you're flying into Melbourne I would be tempted to just get a one day hire and drop it off at the Disney car hire place when you arrive. It'll be cheaper than any transfer.
