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.
As long as you feel good about spending money at Disney knowing that it's flowing to Florida to prop up the businesses and economy there.
Fl resident here. Just so you know...there are millions of us who are NOT maga/trumpy/red. My own LGBTQ kid works at Disney World. I mean, I respect your choice to spend your own money where you think best, but the generalizing in this thread is crazy-making.

You are delulu. Go outside.
Disney is set to spent $17B in Florida. But none of that came from your support, I'm sure.
Cool story bro. They also spent a ton of money on a NY HQ. If you want to spend your holiday weekend doing the math of how much from $1000 tickets purchased and used in CA went to the Florida State government, I’ll happily review your work.
K, at the end of the day Florida isn't suffering from your loss of business either so it's a futile display of protest.

I’ve been to Rome twice. Is it your first time? Do you think people who go to Disney aren’t also well traveled?
NP. Yes, in my experience, people who go to Disney rarely go anywhere else
This has not been my experience at all. Maybe it’s my social circle, but the Disney goers we know are also world travelers and have been all over the US.
Yes, we are all aware you don’t know any middle class families, it’s blatantly obvious.

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.
We're category 2 and it was about 230 a night (no additional tax). I feel like it's worth it. We've stayed 2 other times as well and the prices have been creeping up. Their bus system isn't too bad, the rooms are large, the setting is peaceful, and you get the early entry and late night privileges. You used to be able to walk over to the Polynesian, which was nice, but that ended with the new road construction.
