I spent about $4,000 for six of us to go to Disneyland for four days— we took advantage of the $50.00 children’s tickets, and booked well in advance so our flights were about $175/pp for those without miles.

We’re planning to visit Disney properties in Japan next year, if thats a useful datapoint for the people who believe Disney travelers do nothing else…

You realize that money eventually finds its way to Florida, right?

Not as taxes, and the restaurants, lyft drivers, hotels housekeepers, etc. who get my money are in a blue state.

So, a pittance stays there. But whatever you tell yourself to justify your illogical actions. You love the mouse but want to pretend you don’t support it.

Did you read? I went to Disneyland. I have no pretense to not enjoy Disney. I won’t do WDW because I don’t support Florida. Luckily Disney is available elsewhere.

So sticking it to the Lyft drivers and housekeepers is how you do it. Disney makes the same off you either way.

You’re really fixated here. I am not trying to stick it to Disney. I don’t know where you got that idea from my saying I traveled to California to go to DISNEYland.

I prefer to tip, pay taxes, and support the tourism industry in California rather than Florida. Is that clear now?

it's not clear that you don't realize Disney HQ is in Florida. You are still supporting Florida.

Disney is headquartered in Burbank. California. I’m glad to have been able to clear that up for you.

Shades of Green- around $1600
6-day military park hopper tickets- around $1600
Flights $1000
Probably a couple hundred extra on the lightning lanes and I'll say $1000 on food and other extras because I don't remember. We only used quick service dining in the parks and brought some snacks in with us.
Total- $5000-5500

Wow, the shades of green have really intensified. We never stayed there as it was more expensive than the value or moderate hotels with the military discount, but we rarely paid more than $150 a night. Shades of Green always seemed like a hassle getting to the parks.

For Disney World we typically spend $3 grand for a week.

I June we were at Disneyland for 5 nights and spent $2,500

I don't remember exactly what we spent for tickets but we did six days and used a promotion around christmas time where adults paid kids prices. it probably ended up around $100/day for park tickets. we split a bigger suite room with another family. we bought discounted gift cards from sams club. spent about $200 on grocery delivery and typically had one dinner a day, often sharing plates. drove one way and took auto train one way - they had a sale for $39 tickets +car.

I’ve been to Rome twice. Is it your first time? Do you think people who go to Disney aren’t also well traveled?

Different poster, but I think it’s a reasonable assumption that a majority of Americans who go to Disney have never left North America

SHUT UP AND JUST ANSWER THE QUESTION. Instead of making yourselves seem superior, you just make yourselves sound like a-holes. This is not the question. Nobody cares.

That’s so weird - Disney used its money to stand up to DeSantis, so because you hate DeSantis, you won’t support his enemy. Okay.

I know Disney only does why is good for business - they are ruthless. But still.

I support Disney— in California. Do you think that doesn't support the fight against DeSantis?

I don't have to prop up Floridas government to take my kids to Disney.
