This isn't too surprising.

I see a lot of comments about people getting priced out of a Disney trip. Taking a step back and looking at everything you can see that Disney isn't too worried about it. When they keep having record attendance at the Magic Kingdom year after year, raising ticket prices just gets them more money for doing (essentially) the same things.

As long as the demand to visit the parks stays the same or increases, then the price hikes will keep continuing. Money talks, and right now it's saying that Disney can charge whatever they want for admission to the parks, and people will pay it.

with the very bad exchange rate between the UK and USA at the moment, a rise in ticket prices for foreign visitors is the last thing that is needed

We have been priced out of Disney! We are senior snowbirds without a big income, and not able to get Florida resident tickets. There were two years we bought annual passes and then health problems kept us from going much. And now prices have been raised so much I don't see us ever being able to go again. I am very sad about it as I have been a big Disney fan.

I'm a single Mom, with a pretty low income. All I gotta say is I'm glad I only have 2 more WDW trips planned until my daughter is off to college.

We still have a few days left on our multi-day, never expire, Park Hopper tix we bought online many years ago. I feel that when those are used our Disney visits will be finished. It's never been cheap to come from the Pacific NW & I'm tired of continual upcharges.

Coming from a family that loves to visit Disney every year or every other year this is sad to hear. I'm a single mom of two that love to bring my girls there. Are you guys trying to block out the families that don't have an incredibly high income. And along with a price raise why do you have to change other things as well? I already spend anywhere between 2000-2800. Hoping that with this increase that me and my family will still be able to enjoy disney. Hoping that we will still get the pass hopper option and not be stuck to one park per day. Anyways hope you don't make it cost so much we won't be able to come anymore.

This seems like it will be so confusing for the consumer. What about annual passes? Do those increase on Sunday as well?

Actually, Disney already radically changed and raised prices on annual passes in the fall. I'm the articles are still on this site.
