What if the increase in prices led to a decrease in guests? Would customers be happy then? What if they doubled the price of the annual pass, but it reduced crowds 30%? I think I might be willing to make that trade-off....
I too would be willing to make that trade off but I suspect Disney is more interested in the infrequent travelers - the ones who go once or every 5 years who always buy the souvenirs, who eat every meal on property, who try to cram in (i.e. spend a lot) as much as they can. DVC owners and AP holders I suspect are much less profitable in terms of spending once they get on property. The TiW and AP price hike are directed at frequent visitors, I think, and that can be seen in the Gold blackout dates as crowd control measures.
