Yep, same here. Was looking at a quick trip mid-January, going to Universal instead. Having not priced it out before, I'm genuinely surprised at how much less Universal costs.This all just prompted us to change our January trip to Universal instead, which we've never visited as a family. End of an era but looking forward to comparing the experiences.
I truly hope so. I want to be happy with WDW and get excited about a future trip. But so far they seem to be just using Covid as an excuse to take away offerings. I'm afraid some will never return while others will come back only with a fee.I agree with the criticism but to be fair some of these came to an end when Covid hit and could return when/if the pandemic finally is over and then can hire enough people to do them
Covid may have started the ball rolling, but I can't help but think many of things were waiting for a reason to make the cuts. Covid is a great excuse to change stuff, not just at Disney but that's another issue. Pay to park at the resorts started before the Rona is an example that comes to mind.I agree with the criticism but to be fair some of these came to an end when Covid hit and could return when/if the pandemic finally is over and then can hire enough people to do them

My biggest complaint is the right to determine which park I wish to see in the morning hours without having a reservation. My wife and I are I our 60's and we have been regular visitors since 2009. We never know what park we are attending each morning until after breakfast and we then decide where we feel like going. How in the heck do I make a reservation 6 months out when I couldn't make that decision the day before? How difficult is it to allow us to go to whatever park we wish without the need for a reservation (item 4)? I pay a lot of money staying on-site and I believe I should get preferential treatment as to admission. If I lose that, I can save roughly $100 per night, stay off site and make my reservations just like everyone else. As for the other losses on the list, I agree whole heartedly. We are paying more and more each year and getting less and less.
We used to say that Disney just did things better. Not the case any longer.
They've taken away so many things - and I agree with every one I've seen posted here - but the ticket prices continue to rise or they add on fees for things that used to be included in that ticket price.
If Disney was unable to offer the quality experience that they have in the past then they shouldn't have opened the parks to capacity before they had to staff to do so. The Disney brand has taken a hit as a result of Chapek era decisions and they're on a downward trend. And while Disney slept...Universal grew itself into a true competitor.
