For those who may be wondering, I can attest of the great service with these fine folks at GetawayToday. I have used them on multiple occasions, and their service has been phenomenal. I even cause myself a major issue once with my tickets, and they graciously helped me out in a matter of minutes, on a Saturday. AS I WALKED TO GATES at Disneyland. Honestly, 6 stars out of 5!

Undercover Tourist is lots cheaper than even these "hack" prices and are 95% refundable. How he's never heard of them is beyond me

[@apirateslife1747]

I was once a DL passholder for many years, until 2023. It's just so unfortunate that Disney has increased the pricing so dramatically, that I can no longer justify the expense for my budget. At the time, it wasn't even about the annual increases, but it was about no longer making available a pass with no block out dates. When they took that away, and increased the price of a pass, that no longer made financial sense to me. I'm a new grandpa of a grandson that will be turning 2 years old in December and when he's old enough to appreciate Disneyland, I'm afraid I won't be able to afford to take him there for the first time ☹. I appreciate all you do Chris. I am a big fan of your channel. Thank you.

[@drewwhitney7327]

It’s even more baffling when you consider how much value has been stripped away in the form of shrinkflation. Smaller food portions with less sides, no entertainment inside the Golden Horseshoe, Dragonless Fantasmic, Pyroless Fantasmic, Fireworks-less fireworks, less entertainment at Avenger’s Campus, the 3-4 most popular rides closing at the same time, goodbye red car trolley for no reason at all, Tomorrowland being woefully neglected for almost 30 years…The 22% gouge then becomes about a 50-80% increase.

Back in the day (pre covid basically) There were so many aspects that were better, more enjoyable, and a bigger variety of options, Everything has been paired back but except now it’s way more expensive with less appeal and content.

[@greggers008]

The prices will never go down. They'll just have promotions like they're currently doing for children's tickets.

[@Cockerham]

Wikipedia has a chart which shows price vs. attendance, and paradoxically the attendance continued to increase even as the prices went up... UNTIL the pandemic

Not necessarily. I’m going to stop at these prices. I’ve been hundreds of times and I would rather do something else for the price.

[@MichaelD-zc3mo]

I love your channel Provost and I believe the price increases are simply business. Disneyland will continue to raise prices as long as the attendance remains strong. I do not believe this change is shocking. You are generating business to “Getaway” which is good business too.

[@002mjr]

Disney will always raise as long as people are willing to pay. Once attendance is affected, Disney will think twice.

[@amazingjason455]

Right. Higher prices lead to smaller crowds and less riff raff.

[@imadubsfan1]

True, but I heard they're doing this more so to try to price out visitors for crowd control purposes. But yeah people are still willing to pay so it benefits Disney either way.

And now they are raising prices again? I make a pretty good living and I have no idea how people are able to afford these prices! Way too expensive for my tastes!

Thanks so much Chris. This is a really tough reality, why do you think Disney is going with these extreme increases? I’m reading Walt’s biography right now and just got to the part where he’s dreaming about and building Disneyland, I genuinely believe he would be heartbroken and livid over what the suits have done and are doing to his beloved park… is there any way forward for this company that doesn’t include pricing people and families out? Man it’s just so sad…

[@YellowStrapCrew]

People are either Disney fans or they are not. If you’re a fan, you support cast members being compensated correctly. They just won their strike and Disneyland had to increase their pay. What did everyone think was going to happen? The cost gets handed down to us.

We are a family of 6, we drive and stay at a good neighbor hotel. We eat 2 times a day at the park and share meals as much as we can. We get a 3 day pass, usually did park hopper ( outrageous now) and Genie plus because they make it impossible to get on rides without it. The bare minimum is $6000 for us. That’s a month of wages.

Unlimited visits to berry Farm & soak city for the rest of 2024 and all of 2025. With the recent merger with 6 flags too I’m curious to see if their parks will be included too

It was because of Disney's high prices that my family and I had APs for Magic Mountain fora couple of years. They're very expensive and if you renew early they're upgrade your pass for free. It's no Disneyland but it was still fun. The only real downside for us was that MM is kind of far from where we lived and we would never go during the summer months because of how hot SoCal and MM being located in one of the hotter parts of SoCal to boot.

[@dhallqueen99]

We currently have a Knotts pass and a Universal Silver Pass and are going to buy a SeaWorld pass in the winter (when they run their specials). Even with parking included, season passes to 3 different theme parks is cheaper than a 3-day park hopper for Disneyland. I have been a long time AP holder and Disneyland is getting outrageous with the prices and add-ons. My older two kids have many fond childhood memories of Disneyland but at least my youngest will get variation. The magic is gone…..

[@jazzcatz99]

We love Disney and have taken several family trips over the years but our kids are young adults now and looking for other places to go that aren't so expensive. Last summer we went to Maui for the first time and had an amazing time! It was actually less than Disney as we stayed in a modest condo near the beach.

I tried so hard to get my husband to during the most recent lower price time. I have never gone for three days, but was going to. I told him I would pay for everything, and I bought everything to put together three outfits for Disney bounding. I thought he was on board, and we discussed his clothes as well. Then he conveniently ignored it and we didn’t go. I am retired, on a fixed income, and now with Medicare, which is very expensive, I don’t see any way I will ever be able to go again.

Let’s address the elephant in the room. Disney is a corporation supplying an exclusive product to those who cannot survive without their product. Their mindset is to make as much profit as possible with no regard to the welfare of their customers. But now for the elephant: Disneyland is now unionized. They must bargain with union representatives, who are just as greedy as the corporation with out regard to the customers, and pay higher wages and benefits. So guess who pays for this? Very noble of you Chris to try to help people get them lowest price they can for now. But it’s a losing battle. The Mouse is too big and so is the elephant. I was an annual pass holder since way back when an annual pass with zero restrictions and parking included was less than $300. I stopped when it reached around $700 and no parking. Raised our kids there and have been going for over 55 years. Haven’t gone for over two years now. Sad chapter. I’ll just live vicariously through you Chris and my memories.

We are going to need to pull another mortgage to go to Disneyland

[@seanc775]

I really wish I would have waited to buy my kids tickets! We are going February 18-22nd and already bought our 5 tickets for a three day single park per day pass for 5 of us including a 7 and 9 year old and it cost us $1900. Crazy!! This deal would have saved me some money!! Thanks for sharing as always I love watching you guys!!

[@deantuft]

Staff wanted increases in pay so that has to come from somewhere. It will not be taken from shareholder dividends as this will negatively impact the price of shares, which will be a target for senior execs at Disney. Whilst it maybe unpopular people cannot expect increases in park running costs not to be passed on to consumers. There’s also the new hotel to pay for as DVC and room sales have been slower than expected.

[@Failure2send]

Exactly this. Disney isn't going to fully pay for CM wage increases, that cost is getting offloaded to the consumer.

[@KhurtKhave669]

And there hasn't been any significant shareholder dividends since before 2020. Disney has been so mismanaged and losing money in films and streaming that the entire company is now in danger; yet they keep doing the same foolish things.

[@mapamouse]

@@KhurtKhave669 yes Disney stock was about $200 a share like two or three years ago, now it’s $96. The shareholders are getting killed.

[@nfordyce]

Thanks so much for the info. We were planning on going next year for what is now probably our last trip. It is getting way too expensive. We will hop on Get Away Today right now!

[@OhanaMamaWatt]

I’m glad I bought a ticket for my son’s best friend a few weeks ago. We held on to our annual passes knowing it was a cost saver, but the additional $100 will hit hard next year for our family of four.

[@lisadaniels2862]

Thank you so much for this video. I will be calling in the next couple of days

[@hapaguy2001]

I've been going to Disneyland since I was 9 years old (I'm 64 now) and was planning on taking my grand-kids there when they get a little older but now I'm having 2nd thoughts as the price is just too much. It used to be that you could afford to go every year but now it's so expensive that it's becoming something you have to save up a lifetime for. I feel sorry for the younger generation that can no longer afford to go.

[@ronnyjohnston6039]

We used to go once a year or every other year. Havent been since 2020. (We got our trip in before lockdown) Dont forsee going anytime soon, inflation has made it too hard to save for vacations. And if we did manage, we would no longer park hop.

[@margiecraig6077]

Time to get rid of Iger and the bunch of them! I cry for the families that want to take their families. I'm a Grandma that loved taking Grandkids to Disneyland. But I can't afford to take myself!

[@Thephoenix0308]

Guess I can't even save to go to Disneyland anymore it's just to expensive for me. Sucks. Maybe in the future. Wow. Good luck everyone who can go. Have fun. In the park. ❤ ya'll have a wonderful time. 💕

[@sethcarlow8363]

Thanks for the info, Chris.

[@reedjacksonmaccom]

you’re a professional “urgency builder”. I approve

[@ohana8535]

Yep, this is essentially a commercial.

[@johnhanson3508]

I know how to fix this problem everybody boycott going to Disneyland or Disney world until they drop the prices back down to a bare minimum

[@Cymorill8]

But it depends on WHEN you go. A one day park hopper is as low as $169 in February or as high as $281 in December as of today. The price difference based on demand for the same tickets is unreal.

[@Cutelatinguy2]

VOTE with your pocketbook folks! If you keep paying the higher prices, Disney will keep increasing them!

[@laranjoeric]

I used to love going to Disneyland. Went when I wanted to. No planning. No budgeting. Just went. Had fun. Got on all the rides I wanted to. There were no cell phones. No fast passes. Now, Disneyland is no longer any fun. So sad to see all the greed.

[@douglaswild3852]

They have just COMPLETELY priced us out of going!! It’s just heartbreaking. We LOVE Disneyland and use to go twice a year, EVERY YEAR and stay for three or four days with hopper passes for both parks. But since they have increased the prices so radically on EVERYTHING from you passes, food, and hotels, PLUS the charges PER PERSON for Genie Plus, after hour parties ect. We haven’t gone ONCE in four years. We sincerely love Disneyland but just CAN NOT justify spending THOUSANDS for only a few days. You could literally fly somewhere or take a cruise for less money. Very sad. They’ve priced out the very people who made them successful. We miss the Disney magic and Walt would hate this.😕

[@sticky3038]

They have priced the Magic right out of the parks as well so you’re not missing much. The very essence of what made Disneyland special is gone. Noticed that years ago

[@gbcocean1955]

agreed! since 2022 we have stopped going and for the prices it costs for 6 days at DLA we can spend 3+ weeks on vacation in Oregon Coast. Loved Disneyland but will not bankrupt myself to go anymore-but Disney knows their addicts will pay whatever is posted.

[@stace.G]

Will not be renewing my imagine pass (the cheapest) park is always packed, a lot of rides are always down. I live in Northern California it’s a 3 hour drive so no can’t afford it anymore.

[@elizabeth2164]

This increase doesn’t bode well for this Canadian when I visit my relatives in SoCal, given the exchange rate…

[@MADD_Crafter]

Oh, Jiminy Cricket!😕 With another price hike we will continue to visit the park much less. We have had to downsize from an annual pass to a one day one park visit. One Disneyland visit per year. I have a question about the 2 to 5 day tickets. Do we still have to visit the park between a specific period of time? How I wish I could spread out those muti day tickets with more time in between. Chris thank you for your series on the Florida Disney world hotels. After comparing pricing with Disneyland annual passes vs making a trip to Florida (We live 9 miles from Disneyland) after your videos we decided to travel to Florida and visit Disneyworld for the first time. With that much said. It was cheaper for us to fly ✈️ to Florida, book a disney hotel, and visit the Disneyworld for a few days vs getting the annual passes for Disneyland. love your content!

[@starsanchez3631]

It is getting pricey. 😢 I’m glad my pass won’t expire until 9/2025. Then I will decide if I can renew 🤷🏻‍♀️ great information and breakdown Chris

[@mrs.bdaycare5530]

I was just saying that too. I just renewed

[@johnhanson3508]

Why is Disney only for the super rich and not not for the middle class so not right come on I remember when it was 55 dollars a day to go now I can't even afford it

[@slowazzd2165]

Its like yall don't even know what inflation is. Actually you're probably a boomer so the state of the economy is probably totally foreign to you since you have no reason to care till it impacts you. Welcome to the world for younger generations, now stop moaning like a little snowflake

[@JayPTvAdventures]

Thank you Chris for always keeping us up to date on what going on with Disneyland and the prices.

[@realetreasures6443]

We have 2-day tickets for Disneyland for next week. But next year I'm thinking we'll go to Tokyo Disney. May as well fly to Japan as drive the 6 hours to Disneyland for practically the same money.

[@candaceeffle6552]

That is just ridiculous. Greed. Getting ready for all the new stuff so it won't be blamed for when they open. I have had annual pass for 10 yrs and have gone since 1958 and THIS will be my last year. I will always remember the old days cuz today Disney is not Disney. Shame on you Disney. 😢💔

[@newworldastrology1102]

It’s time people start talking with their wallets. And walking. Otherwise it’s like staying in an abusive relationship with someone who takes advantage and doesn’t care about you.

[@steveburns6503]

The CMs deserved the raise but they are being sure to make guests pay for that …

[@aviduser1961]

I told my 20 year old son that when he is my age a 1 day, 1 park ticket will be 1,000.00. How else are they going to pay for Disney + and all those executive bonuses? Bob Iger just bought a soccer team. Insane.

[@GwendolynBaker-j5k]

THANK YOU!!!! Your insights, explanations, and work arounds are greatly appreciated!

[@scotturich]

Even worst with price increases is that they charge with Tier system that can be even more

[@wolftress2503]

Honestly, I don’t think the ticket prices are too high for what you get. It’s staying in the local hotels that adds another $1000.

[@Bjrazon]

Disney is so ridiculous. We absolutely loved the park and miss it so much but since 2021 we haven’t gone back and refuse to pay these prices. We’d rather take that money and spend it going somewhere else.

[@gbcocean1955]

Same here! especially with so much construction going on and so much closed, people going right now are basically just like people burning their money

[@slowazzd2165]

​@@gbcocean1955or maybe not everyone is a broke, jaded, a-hole, and can experience joy without needing everything to be perfect 🙄 i genuinely hate people like you
