Disney concerned about affordability of its own theme parks

A recent Wall Street Journal report highlights growing internal concerns at Disney about the long-term effects of rising prices at its theme parks.






A recent Wall Street Journal report highlights growing internal concerns at Disney about the long-term effects of rising prices at its theme parks.

While ticket increases and add-ons like Lightning Lane have driven record revenue, some executives are reportedly questioning whether Disney is reaching the limit of what families are willing to pay. Internal surveys reportedly indicate a decline in guests planning return visits, raising questions about whether the company is sacrificing future loyalty for short-term profits.

In what appears to be a response to the article, Disney issued a statement today defending its pricing strategy. Disney Parks Chairman Josh D’Amaro and CFO Hugh Johnston emphasized that the company offers a range of pricing options to keep visits accessible, citing ongoing promotions and discount programs.
