The trend of Disney dialing back staffing in order to fit or influence the crowd level is one the more disappointing (and seemingly undeniably real) actions the company has taken. Particularly in light of the new pricing scheme that was nominally intended to induce crowd dispersement to less busy times of the year. The idea that they are intentionally diluting the experience on certain days is a distinctly unmagical way to treat their customers.
While I completely understand how this can make sense (dollars and cents) in a business model and I realize staffing to match demand is a necessity for a theme park, it’s starting to feel more manipulative and malicious rather than just smart management. I don’t know, maybe I’m overreacting but this stuff makes me pretty angry.
