Disneyland ticket prices continue their year-to-year increase as they rose by an average of 8 percent on Tuesday.

One-day tickets now range from $104 to $179, depending on the day, with the one-day $65 'Park Hopper' ticket add-on making the most expensive ticket $244.

The new price tag for tickets complements a falling Walt Disney Co. stock, which has fallen 46 percent in the last year.

Disney amusement park tickets have annual increases on par with college tuition and medical care.

At $244 per day, it's worth an additional 10% to add Fast Pass, but I fear that means everybody will get Fast Pass, so the fast lane won't be any faster than the regular lane.

$244 per day?! This is not much less than the cost of a full-year pass from some years ago.

When do their prices become Racist and Sexist?

Out of control- but people will pay it without thinking

Disney GREED is on a roll.

I suppose as long as the suckers are willing to pay for it.

Perhaps if Disney creates more LGBTQI suggestive content for kids, promotes transgenderism even more, and adds additional “child of Satan little Antichrist” cartoons then their stock will go back up? Oh…and don’t forget to hire MORE pedophile child trafficking employees than they currently have!

Fast Pass had you reserve a time in advance and you show up in a fifteen minute window. You can only make one reservation at a time. Bottom line is you have to wait either way, but with fast pass most of the waiting is not done in line.

Cheaper to book a coast-to-coast flight then spending a day in Disneyland.

One-day tickets now range from $104 to $179

A lift ticket at Steamboat Springs ranges from $108 to $229, or at Whiteface they are about $119. Everything is going up, ain't inflation grand.

Disneyland should raise the price to $500/day. That way they will signal that only indoctrinated upper middle class folks are welcome.

The experience will be much better for those guests able and willing to pay the higher freight as the common deplorable riff raff will be priced out.

To make sure that only the anointed attend they should brand everything with rainbows, require all ticketholders to inform them of their preferred pronouns, and make them sign some sort of DEI statement assuring Disney that they are either a fully fledged member of the LGBTQIA+ community or an ally.

I’d do Knott’s Berry Farm or the Getty Museum or the Nixon and Reagan libraries and many other places in the Los Angeles area far before even thinking of Disneyland.

Fast Pass is becoming like TSA Pre-Check, if everybody does it, you’re not saving that much time.

Disneyland should raise the price to $500/day. That way they will signal that only indoctrinated upper middle class folks are welcome.And the taxpayer sponsored free tickets to people of color.

[ArtDodger]

Back in the 80’s a Disney spokesperson said the company planned to raise prices every year until 10% of the people that drove to the gate, turned around and left. Now that everything is booked in advance and the greenway speeds them and their dollars right to the park, it seems the policy is still up and running.

Since Disney inc has become a groomers haven,their stock vakue has plummeted. And the rulers of the magic (barf) kingdom are blind to the cause and effect in play.

You couldn’t pay me $244 a day to go to Pedoworld

Disney is excrement. I have no understanding why people would waste their money on Disney’s wokeness.

I grew up about 6 miles from Disneyland in the 70s/80s. While in high school we would sometimes go after school (Monday thru Thursdays) and hit all the rides in a few hours and be back home by 8pm. It only cost $8 then and the longest wait to get on a ride might have been 30-40 minutes (Space Mountain or Star Tours), but every other ride would be 5-10 minute wait at most. We never went on weekends or holidays as it was always packed, but the first 4 days of the week were great.

Haven’t been back since my kids went off to college and couldn’t imagine paying $244 per person while standing in line for 2 hours for each ride. And I have been told by friends that it is packed from opening until closing 7 days a week, and that the park usually stops admitting people inside around 10am-11am because the park has reached maximum capacity by that time. That and the price of admission, combined with the overpriced carnival food is insanity in my opinion. But you can’t blame Disney for that if people are willing to pay that much money and tolerate the crowd, congestion and standing in line for hours on end.
