Honestly, I hedged by saying pre-arrival purchases are just the “predominant” method. It actually dwarfs in-app purchases. That’s the kicker: here you are trying to be right about people whipping out their phone to pay 15 bucks because you think posted wait times have been jacked up to get them to buy when the *actual* cynical bit of the whole program is that thousands of people in a park on any given day have had $15 per person per day quietly slipped into their $6,800 vacation package. Seriously, go price out a vacation on their website and you can see for yourself how easily it gets bundled pre-arrival right alongside park hopping. And you can bet your life that all the call center agents are thoroughly trained on pitching the G+ upsell and probably incentivized on it as well.
I’d encourage you to not flippantly accuse someone of making stuff up when it’s plainly obvious that you don’t understand all the channels via which G+ is sold or the massive scale of those channels compared to day-of.
Also, this rarely has to be mentioned here because I assumed that everyone understood this, but the “what are your sources” nonsense is completely out of bounds. You know darn well that nobody - literally ever, anywhere on the internet - has named an internal source for stuff like this. That’s what makes it such a pathetic retort. It’s even dumber when you pull it on someone who…
…was telling people accurate things about this subject before the announcement. Especially compared to...
... this nonsense.
