In recent times, this marks a rare early sellout period for the Premier Pass, which has typically remained available through most dates since the spring season. Sell outs of Premier Pass were very common when it launched in 2024, but have tailed off in 2025.

Going to DL and trying out LLPP there, seems like a home run there since it’s for 2 parks.

So I would debate that maybe there’s a slow down in the market considering most theme parks are seeing slower attendance in the Florida area. Profits are doing well tho so all parks figured out a way to make more money. That’s the new demand. Everyone wants their own special moment

I don’t think that brand new park is shattering any records…just a hunch

AidenRodriguez73117 days ago

Considering that their “biggest competitor” ‘s BRAND new park is not cracking 1 hr waits with half their rides closed while Tron is breaking that and opened years ago… I think it’s just the storm man

Aren’t there thunderstorms and flash flood warnings there right now? I think it’s from the hurricane. The app is showing a lot of outside rides closed.

For the 5% of visitors that are locals each day? The fillers? Definitely For those who bring in the bacon and travel longer durations? Some…for sure. Shouldn’t be that slow in October…or really any month out of the last 36 it has been…with all that unprecedented demand…however

It’s a new groundbreaking theory out of Stanford… FOMOFTIWM… The next big thing

AidenRodriguez73117 days ago

I wonder if the lower park waits may have something to do with the news of the impending tropical storm at historically one of the slowest times for the parks… But who knows right?

I reckon there’ll be record-high LLPP prices for Thanksgiving and Christmas weeks. Purely a guess and not reflective at all of Bob’s need to squeeze those guests more.

Sirwalterraleigh17 days ago

Happened to swing by the app for an unrelated reason and I was SHOCKED at how long those waits are… You can’t put a price on avoiding the 10 minute line for rat or the 35 for flight of passage…I’d pay $1000 for that no question… TAKE MY MONEY, LORD BOB 💰💰 Thankfully he’s Gonna Jack the fees next week to screw those idiots from New Jersey… …ama right?!?

I’m not a Disney adult. Atleast in my view, I truly love the Disney parks and Disney movies but I don’t make anyone thing my personality and I don’t identify myself by any specific hobby of mine. I’m a fan of Disney who is an adult which I’m aware is purely pedantic but to me there is a difference. Anyways, I do have a family but we do chip in separately for stuff like this. If I had my own kids, I could afford it but I know it’s more expensive but hey, kids are expensive. I’m not gonna ever have more than 2 anyway unless I end up with triplets or twins. The whole world has gotten too expensive for kids, that’s why birth rates are dropping. Parents get their kids those light up wands for $40 at the circus and stuff. The main difference is that this $40 purchase is actually useful for me. I’m one of the only people who in some ways prefers LL over Fast Pass anyways.

I can’t imagine too many families buying LLPP. We had a group of 10 for 6 days and I remember LLMP and LLSP coming to around $1,600. We didn’t buy LLs every day and 2 were under age 3. In my opinion they are pricing out many young families.

Good for you as a Disney Adult. Now multiply it times 4 or 5 or 6 for a family then add that on top of the base admission and food and merchandise. $$$$ It's a major demotivater for the average guest to know that their experience may be significantly worse even though they're spending a significant sum of money already...All for something that used to be free. Maybe they'll just go somewhere else.
