Price point or capacity issues? This crowding issue is a mess Disney made out of arrogance and greed. They haven't added significant additional capacity to The MK since 1992. Now guest satisfaction is nose diving because of the crowds. They should have built to keep up with demand, but they didn't. They smugly and arrogantly took pride in increasing profits by cutting amenities and no capital investments. Now the place is a complete cluster **** and since it takes Disney 7 years (concept to completion) to add attractions, they have absolutely no other options than to actively run off paying customers. Business Econ 101 will tell you that tha is a mind bogglingly bad business model. Particularly when guest satisfaction is plummeting.
I don't disagree with this at all. I hate that the parks have not grown proportionately with the crowds as they should have. That being said, Disney's a business, just like every other theme park out there. The parks ARE crowded, no matter what the reasoning is, and increasing ticket sales is a good way to keep supply and demand even. Just because YOU don't see it as a good value doesn't mean other people won't. Believe it or not, you guys will not wither up and die if you don't go to Disney World. If you think your money is better spent elsewhere, then that is your choice rather than a fault of Disney's. I was always taught, though, to be successful that you work for what you want, maybe even make a couple sacrifices, rather than ***** about what's being taken away from you. That being said, you're not gonna convince me otherwise and I won't convince any of you, so I'll bow out of this conversation. Disney will continue to be profitable whether we like the way they're going about it or not and that's all that matters to them and to their competitors.
