DLR Admission 1-day / AP Prices Raised - Effective Today 9/15/06

[Sadako]

Disneyland Resort Admission/Parking Price Revision Admission Prices for 1-Day tickets and Annual Passes, as well as Resort Parking have changed, effective today.

Summary of Changes:
Admission:
1-Day, 1 Park = $63 ages 10+, $53 ages 3-9, $61 Senior
1-Day Park Hopper = $83 ages 10+, $73 ages 3-9
SoCal/Vons Resident 1-Day Hopper = $78 ages 10+, $68 ages 3-9
Resort Parking:
Cars and Motorcycles = $11
RV's, Limos = $13
Busses, Trucks = $18
Annual Passes:
SoCal Select AP = $124
SoCal AP = $154
Deluxe AP = $239, Senior, CM = $219
Premium = $359, Senior, CM = $339
AP Parking Ad-on = $59

IMHO, not as bad as I feared. Only a $9 increase in the Premium AP which was my main worry. After last months rampant rumors, I almost feared it would be raised to $400.

My hope is that this will be an excuse to also raise pay for the CM's. But I am fearful that it is not!

Well, minimum wage is going up so chances are it will.

Premium = $359, Senior, CM = $339

$83 for one day park hopper....ouch.

$359 is not bad at all for a premium ap IMO. You only have to go about 6 or so times to get your moneys-worth.

What's a "Senior, CM" AP? Seniors get a discount?
CM's get a discount? I take it that these are CMs that don't have "silver" and above privileges?

1-Day Park Hopper = $83 ages 10+,

Doesn't it bother anyone else that park hopper is only $17 short of reaching $100! Just makes me shiver.

Phew ... we beat this increase by a few days!

That assumes that one thinks $60/visit is a reasonable entrance fee. Too bad many think that $20/visit is even more reasonable.

It's pretty effective though IMO. Because people will more than likely say 'Well the 2 day pass is only a little bit more...just get that one.'

CM's get in for free. But a lot of CM's have friends and family who want AP's too

Didn't the prices just go up a couple of months ago?

Thanks for answering,

I was JUST thinking the same thing! The AP price has now gone up twice since I bought mine Dec 2004.

Re: DLR Admission 1-day / AP Prices Raised - Effective Today 9/15/06

5-day parkhopper bought online is $179. That's about $36/day.
So, it now take about 10 visits to "get your money's worth," but only if you can go to DL in five days out of 13 consecutive days. I don't think there is a longer valid time length available anymore. There are discounts with a PAP, so if you plan to spend a lot of money (how much depends on how many days under 10 days you plan to go) buying the PAP might be the way to go for a one-time-long-time tourist.

Costco "Play 4 Days" tickets are expiring 11/18/06. Not parkhoppers, but parkhoppers aren't really necessary, given the choice, and they're $119, or $30/day.
That means that a Premium is now equivalent to 12 days at Disneyland. Assuming that this promotion will be available again, of course.

Well, if it's not worth the price, then you don't have to renew it.

Yeah, getting your money's worth is a subjective thing. I usually base my 'money's worth' on 2 or 3 day park hoppers. I've never been able to stay 5 days in a row.
If you base it on 1 day park hoppers its only about 4.3 days

And where did I say it's not worth the price? I was just stating that I have noticed it go up 2 times since I bought mine in Dec 2004.

I TOALLY think it's worth the price in my case, as I go just about every week. Just making an observation.

Don't forget too, the Premium pass also includes parking, which is now $11 a pop for autos. The Costco promotion does not include parking, just entrance fee.

For that reason, plus the discounts, DH and I are considering getting APs this year.

in the past I would say year and a half prices have jumped four or five times.... I blame it on the Diesel prices going through the roof.
