They still think the magic is gone.
As Disney attempts to lower astronomical prices after years of being egregiously unaffordable for average American families, irked customers still are avoiding the once happiest place on Earth.
Looking ahead to 2025, Disney World launched a three-night, two-day theme park package with a $200 savings discount which is good on trips from February 26 through June 30, according to the company.
Disney is also offering several 25% off room deals for early next year as well, plus special benefits to local residents, Inside the Magic reported.
On DisneyToursitBlog, customers were saying that they couldn’t harness the deal.
“Either room availability under this promo was very restricted, or that many people already took advantage of the offer,” one person commented.
“I don’t even have the option to choose it. I tried as soon as the promo was announced, I tried modifying my current trip I tried booking a new one. nothing,” added another.
Meanwhile, fellow Disney fans called out that the deals might hardly cover lunch for a family.
“While nice, it is still about 35% higher than the rates should actually be at this point in the world economy,” a third wrote.
The user also speculated that the house of mouse is “already anticipating losing visitors” to Universal’s upcoming Orlando theme park Epic Universe slated to open in 2025.
In August, Disney’s top brass acknowledged “flattish revenue” out of its theme parks as well.
Analyst Ben Barringer said at the time this had been brought on by the company’s pricing going to infinity and beyond.
“Coupled with other travel companies recognizing poor growth, it is clear people are scaling back their spend when it comes to tourism and recreation.”
