Oops, They Did It Again: Disney Raises Prices On Theme Park Tickets
Apparently the fact that the country is in a huge economic mess doesn’t seem to phase the suits at Disney. We understand that earnings were down this quarter compared to last year, and that you need more cash, but the ticket prices to your parks already cost a lot of money. Nonetheless, over the weekend the admission costs to Disneyland and Walt Disney World both went up by a few bucks, just like they have for the last couple of years.
If you have your heart set on heading to the mouse house in Florida this summer, a one-day ticket will now cost $79. This is an increase of $4 over the former rate, and once you add in the tax, you’re looking at well over $80 for a day with Mickey and friends. Like always, it pays to stay longer—they want to fatten you up on churros. The difference between a three day base ticket and a ten day base ticket is less than $30, but it will still cost you over $200 per person.
On the left coast, things at Disneyland are a little pricier as well. Access to one of the resort’s two parks will now set you back $72. At least the tickets here aren’t taxed, so there are no surprises when you make your way to the ticket window. Just remember that your admission is going towards a lot of new stuff that they’re planning at Disney’s California Adventure.
Despite the increase in ticket prices, we’re sure that people will continue to stream through the turnstiles—us included. Maybe just try to plan your visit around someone's birthday.
