It's sad when almost every Cast Member I speak with says "I wouldn't pay to come here, good thing we get in for free."
It's very frustrating. It's like watching your straight A kid pulling in Cs and not even acknowledging there is a problem. Disney has historically been the best, but now all they have to say is that they are the biggest.
I live in Orlando, and I had an AP. This past year my partner and I used our APs only 4 times. We just couldn't get excited, or have any desire to visit the parks. The ONLY time we did visit the parks was when family was in town and we were obligated to go.
That being said, I would LOVE a real reason to renew my AP. I might renew it once the new FL is finished... or what I will probably do is just get one of my friends to walk me in. I want to spend money at Disney, but Universal and SeaWorld seem to be working a lot harder for my money. They are giving me every reason to go to their seasonal events, use my AP and visit often... and that is what I will continue to do.
I think that hits it spot on. Disney isn't working for your money. They want national and international money and it is working. I see more and more first time buttons every time I go to the park. This is why we still have Illuminations and Wishes, they are both award winning shows and while people like us may have seen them many times, the majority of people in those parks have never seen them or seen the show only once or twice. Disney now is really working to improve guest experiences through interactive queue and adding small things in Fantasyland to disperse the crowds. After visiting Magic Kingdom a few weeks ago, I felt that there was little drops in quality that I expected from Disney in the past. My biggest issue was that the cannons in Stitch didn't work, but seeing that the line was pulling a half hour and crowds were only picking up filler was needed to help out the other attractions. Same reason why we won't see Everest go down. Disney would rather have vacationers experience most of a ride, then have so many people miss out on that experience that is a staple of that park.
Ok after reading that post where that WDI worker said upper management doesnt care about the guest that really pisses me off I really dont want to step foot in Disney ever again if that actually is true

I only go to a WDW park if I can get in for free. It's great having CM friends.
This is a very sad day thank you for telling me this when I posted that I thought it was just a rumor at most then you guys posted it true kinda makes me want to cry I truly loved Disney World with all my heart but after this idk if I can look at Disney the same way :'(
I really am sorry. Trust me I want to feel the magic. I want to feel the pixie dust. I want to be so overcome with joy that when I walk through the turnstiles I want to latch arms with a stranger and skip down main street USA. I am 100% serious. However when I go now I just feel so blah.
I go to seaworld universal ioa once a week and believe it or not, blue horizons still chokes me up, the wizarding world makes my heart flutter and when I am in new York at universal and the song "downtown" plays I cant help but dance like I am in my own musical.... I just want those same feelings at wdw.
