I think the main reason for the low crowds right now are the top-tier prices Disney is charging for a single-day ticket. $169 for Fridays and $179 for Saturdays might just be too much for the average person to be spending. Maybe Disney has finally reached the point where they’ve priced people out of the parks.

@VictorDeveze Год назад

It's a great strategy, they make more money at 70% capacity but higher pricing, than 100% capacity but lower pricing. Not to mention wear and tear, basic services, maintenance, less cast members needed. It's also a better experience for those that are willing to pay

@andresmillsgallego814 Год назад

People love Disney, and go to the parks for a feeling, emotion, connection. People don't mind spending money, but there's a fine line where it crosses over to feeling nickel and dined, and being viewed as walking dollar signs. That is a feeling that people don't like. Walt always said if you focus on the product, the quality, and the person..then people will pay. Couple that with the economy hurting, and people are not going to go as much.

@ktaxtell Год назад

I have a client that just got back from DL. They purchased Genie+ for 4. When they went to city hall to get bday buttons they mentioned that the park was so slow that they wouldn't need Genie+. The cast member reimbursed them right then and there.

@MrRy2525 Год назад

Another great update. I agree with you about its time to get rid of lightning lane. It’s overkill for people waiting in the regular line. Even the fast pass they had before was way better. It’s time to get re-organized

@Kimmy360 Год назад

Let's be honest, the crowds are smaller because Disney has priced people out. I say that as someone who travels 1200 miles to spend time in the parks once or twice a year. I'm happy we are able to do it. When our kids were small we went every other year because my parents lived close to the parks. If we didn't have that convenience there is no way we could have gone then and enter fees have tripled. Some of the people I know can do the parks a few times while their kids are growing. Most of the people I know will never go.

@eddieg6436 Год назад

When prices were cheaper, it attracted a “certain demographic” to the park and resulted in fist fights in Toontown…..Google it. …..Prices NEED to be high, to keep the rif-raff OUT.

@VictorDeveze Год назад

Exactly, and as business owner (Airbnb - if you wanna hate on me that's fine) I can tell you it's a good strategy. We make more money at 70% capacity than 100%, and a 50% higher price. For example, we make more money charging $150 per day, but only 70% booking, than $100 per day, and 100% booking. It comes out to be $3,150 per month vs $3,000 per month (30-day example). That's $150 dollars more, but we are not even taking into account basic services: water, gas, electricity. We are not taking into account wear and tear, cleaning, maintenance. My business runs better at 70% than 100%, and I make more. So yes, I see why Disney prefers this, totally makes sense. Don't hate (or hate, they don't care). People get a better experience in a park at 70% capacity. This is not a basic necessity, this is a luxury item, always has been. For cheaper park experience visit Six Flags or Cedar Fair. When people understand they are not entitled to luxury, then they will make peace with it. Hate disney? give your money to someone else and then maybe the price will go down.

@TheMistyakapyt Год назад

@DoomAtDusk when you spend that much $ you expect to enjoy the park. In the past I've been there when we were lucky to get on 2 rides all day. Being stepped on (literally), having toes rolled over by strollers, waiting an hour to get food and then having rides closed, it began to feel not worth it anymore. The last 2 years have been a breath of fresh air! I am in favor of keeping reservations if that means that my $3000 of tickets and hotel stays and another $500 for food means we can not be crushed in crowds and enjoy the parks!

I have always loved Disneyland. It's a place my family took me as a child, I took girlfriends to, watch the fireworks. It warmed my heart to be a pass holder and own a piece of the joy. Walt was everywhere. This is not the same Disney. They are stripping the parks and the brand of everything Walt and his genius imagineers created for us. The magic, nostalgia, family atmosphere is gone.. for me. I hope I'm in the minority with these feelings. Everyone should have a "Disneyland".

@sheilaa1333 Год назад

We were just at WDW and bought the Genie+ a few of the days but realized I preferred our non-Genie days so much better. On the days we purchased I was so stressed trying to get the maximum number of LL and then constantly crossing the park and/or watching the clock for the next LL. On our non-Genie days we just focused on the rides and shows that don’t have LL or have short waits and wandered where we wanted, shopped, ate, etc. It was so much more relaxing. I really wish they’d just bring back free LL so there isn’t the stress to ‘get your money’s worth’. We used to do one and then explore that area and repeat.

And MMRR was closed from park open until nearly 11am and then had another hour+ closure 2 other times that day. Crowds were definitely light but A LOT of long breakdowns on Major attractions.

I think maybe they’ve reached their max ticket price to limit attendance and help maximize attendance and reservations help them cheap out on hiring employees. They control park attendance to control employee costs. Which shows they still don’t give a crap about the actual park experience.

@ericgerds3980 Год назад

Great update. There is another factor going on. I have two friends who are cast members at Disneyland and they both tell me that all parts of the parks are under staffed. They are bleeding people. I wonder if Disney upper management is keeping the reservation system so that they can keep the staffing number down. I know that sounds crazy, but Disney is doing everything they can to keep cast member under a 40 hour work week to that they don’t have to pay health care.

@diazjr1975 Год назад

My sister is in management and said they are short staff. I would love to go back and work part time! Also, reservation system is here to stay!

@rebeccaheuer3255 Год назад

I believe you. They don't want to pay for health care. Then they say they're under staffed. Anyone in management is going to blow the Disney horn (meaning keep the public thinking under staffing is the issue when it's CLEARLY not and they constantly give ED and tell people to go home before they clock In) Ceasars Entertainment does the same thing. So I'm wise to corporate shenanigans.

I think summer has become the new slow season. There isn’t really anything there during the summer to draw the crowds in. Many people with magic keys are blocked out during the summmer. I also feel like Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays are harder for people to get off work if they work in the service or retail industry so Monday-Thursdays tend to be the easiest.

Im not saying the park is gouging or that its not worth it, its just getting too expensive for tickets, food and accommodations.

@laurabelzer7237 Год назад

David, I feel a big part of the low crowds has to do with the economy. As a pass holder, I have cancelled reservations 3 times this summer now due to being in a tighter budget than I have in years. This year has hit us hard financially, as my job success depends greatly on the economy and interest rates, and I’m in an industry of over 3 million people here in the U.S. and that’s just my business. There are lots of other jobs aout there dependent on the same.

It's not the weather. By continuing to increase single ticket prices while continuing to offer an annual pass at a ridiculously low price (even the $1500 pass pays for itself after around 15 visits yet gives you a ridiculous 330+ days of admission), Disney has finally completely turned Disneyland into a locals only park. Only people with passes go, and locals mostly buy the poor people's $450 pass). That's why the weekends are more quiet than weekdays. It'll get more busy as soon as the other passes are allowed back.

I'm a business process consultant. One reason for the reservation system is the reverse of what I hear talked about. Having reservations helps the Disneyland cast management plan and schedule workers. It can significantly help. When there are not many people in the park, they won't be over staffed. Effectively saving a lot of money. Likewise they can staff up for busier days, keeping the customer experience/ customer satisfaction HIGH.

@frenesimyers1895 Год назад

The Parks are as "Accessible" to you as they are to everyone else, and have always been. I have been going into the Parks since Walt Disney was alive. The Parks were always accessible to everyone even then, you just didn't pay for every move you make. People have been coming to the Park from other Countries for as long as I can remember, way before Reservations started. We use to love hearing their accents. I can understand that since you come so little these things seem a great thing, but for those us who live here, the reservations make no difference at all, they certainly do not control crowds. The other things are just money makers for Disneyland.

I bet if they went back, they'd hike ticket prices maybe $10-15 to make up the lost revenue.

@stanfordite1 Год назад

Well when I take Disney over, free fastpass will be coming back or there will be no line skipping service at all. Revenue, shmevenue. I have no problem with leaving money on the table.

@samoffice9425 Год назад

It's simple, the cost to go to the parks has gotten out of hand. People are over the after the lockdown spending and money is getting tighter. Ticket prices have increased, travel has increased, and food and merch in parks are really high so when people are looking at discretionary spending they might push back the Disney trip or their multiple trips to Disney. Especially when rides keep breaking down and there really isn't anything that people just have to see

@tomseaton7603 Год назад

Great update David. I appreciated you talking about the music in the Parks. I too love the new music for Mickey's Toontown. Thanks for the picture opportunity with you on July 15. Watched your vlog about the Haunted Mansion premiere.

@Carl-zz5gz Год назад

Not sure I agree with David that the reservation system is not the reason for the slowness. Can't base an opinion on looking around one day's circumstance. The reservation system has left a bad impression on many previous loyal Disneyland guests. They just don't like not having a routine spontaneous approach to going to the park. The cost and treatment doesn't match.

@AuntCooby Год назад

I feel like Friday-Sunday have been the slow days lately. I was just there Monday and Tuesday and the crowds were out of control.

@FreshBakedDisney Год назад

this has been the case for going on almost a year now.

@davidculver5446 Год назад

I have watched videos that are put out showing low attendance.

I'd like to think of this as the calm before the storm. Remember ladies and gentlemen: the holidays will be here before you know it!🎃🧟🍁🥧🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄

It’s not just Disney World. All of Florida is having tourist issues. Saw news stories talking about it.

@dennisso9123 Год назад

If they open up the enchant keys in July and beginning of Aug, then they would have another influx of more key holders to pad the slow days.

@toshibavoodoo Год назад

FRESHBAKED is DISNEYLAN!!!! Can't believe my timing, just set down to watch your walk through from 2 days ago. BUT, already another video! LOVE THESE!!!

@toshibavoodoo Год назад

Not busy is worrisome; Disneyworld is EMPTY (Tough times ahead, family can't afford any more) ! I hope Disney going Woke doesn't impact the Parks. Go Woke and Go broke is real, and the parks should be 100% political free (it should be 100% Family fun, kid centric) The Parks should be historical monuments. So much of America is in the parks, that America and Disneyland is like peas and carrots.

@toshibavoodoo Год назад

Dave's Walk through with voice over are much better, than just the video feed. Both are Great, but Dave adding commentary to the video is more like being there.

@toshibavoodoo Год назад

15:28 FUNNY, they guy complimented David on why he was there, where I only got to enjoy the parks vicariously through the videos!

@toshibavoodoo Год назад

What a great way to spend an hour!!!

@derradune6722 Год назад

Is it only Disneyland that’s experiencing lower crowd numbers? How does it compare to Universal, Knotts Berry Farm etc?

@FreshBakedDisney Год назад

Universal is doing very well as I understand it. Not sure how Knotts is doing.

@Sm-lk6vl Год назад

Universal will be the dominant park moving fwd. Disney is out of money. Sorry but facts are fact, their financials don’t support the blue sky visions they bait with

@yoopergamer2121 Год назад

@janekarlzen4852 Год назад

We were just there for a week and like you said , Sunday was the easiest day to maneuver the park . Tuesdays seemed really busy , but it was really hot and maybe everyone was just more irritable ( us ) , We were able to get to do everything we wanted to do everyday ( including Rise)

@loraineteffeteller1465 Год назад

We’re heading there the first full week of September and I am PRAYING it is like this day the whole time were there. 🤞🏻

@luvadventuresandart Год назад

Yeah 😂 we thought last summer was hot. I will never do Disneyland in August again. We have a 15% chance of rain the rest of the week.

@FreshBakedDisney Год назад

hasn't really been hot at all so far this year. just this past week.

@luvadventuresandart Год назад

@FreshBakedDisney Oh, for us in Arizona, it's been 115° snd up. It was even 118° 3 days in a row.

@adamkoepke245 Год назад

I honestly am wondering if some of the current situations going on are affecting some of the reason why there aren’t that many people. For instance bad press on sound of freedom versus Indiana Jones. All the ride closures. Price hikes. Or maybe people are waiting until some of these big changes and refurbs are done to come. I mean shutting down a few major attractions that people come for in the middle of summer just doesn’t make sense. There’s a number of changes they need to make imho

@darsstar6440 Год назад

Plus a lot of things are closed. People don’t wanna spend the money when things are closed and the rides breakdown a couple times a day I need to ride. People are getting Smart.

@grantj1803 Год назад

Hi David. My family and I were at Hollywood studios at WDW last Monday (happy belated 68th Disneyland). Rise of the resistance was the first attraction we went on at park open. The wait time was posted at 75 minutes but we were able to get on the ride in about 60 minutes. Best attraction we ever experienced. Since Hollywood studios is a smaller park at WDW we used lightning lane on nearly every attraction my family and I went on. My only suggestion is Genie+ should be a free service at both resorts. Great video 👍🏼👍🏼 Fresh Baked!!!

Its not as busy, crowds are a lot less

@misswriter21 Год назад

I think there's a lot of things keeping people from the parks, but also from touristy things in general. I work in a tourism heavy job elsewhere, and while it isn't an amusement park, what we should be seeing in the summer just isn't happening. This lack of business is happening everywhere. People are either unable to spend the money, or they are choosing to spend it differently. Every industry has to adjust to this, but most will not. Executives cannot grasp that people simply cannot spend what they used to with the way inflation and the global economy is going. I hope things will change eventually.

I have a trip booked in September (9/8-9/12) should I expect similar crowd and weather conditions? Just wondering if I should budget extra money for Genie+ or not! Thanks so much for your videos and hard work, as always!

@calvincheng Год назад

No, don’t send more $ to Disney. Get here early for the rope drop. Hit popular rides like Indie, SM, Peter Pan first. Monitor RotR for temp closure. They typically reopen within an hour. Have a great time during this Disney boycott!

@cassandra7665 Год назад

@@calvincheng thanks for the insight! if my hotel and flight weren’t non-refundable i’d definitely cancel 😕 hope Disney sorts everything out soon

@frenesimyers1895 Год назад

Yes, they need to get rid of ALL passes. People were waiting for hours in line for the Haunted Mansion once because they were only letting in Lighting Lane which was very long too. Sometime you get a really good Cast member who is skilled at moving both lanes, but that is rare.

@arielperez3613 Год назад

I’m surprised how low the wait times have been especially since so many kids are on vacation. But I guess Disney has become too expensive that people can’t afford to go anymore :/

You are definitely aloud to indulge in 2 tatooine sunsets on a Friday after a long day of work😅❤🎉 I had that same super intense anxiety at the how to play yard as a single mom alone with twin 3 year olds lol it was extremely hard but I knew they needed some freedom and that I should just try to push through it but I sure was watching like a hawk lol I knew all the exits and who was around and was listening for any kids that seemed under stress thankfully mine where actually dressed as tink and peter so that really helped as most kids these days dont dress as either however they blended in way to well with all the green around them🤯 They loved it though and wont stop talking about the slide😂 Good tip to dress your kids in a kinda obnoxious outfit so you can spot them easily in a swarm of screaming kids lol I LOOOVVVEEE the tomorrow land loop I wish they would release a CD or download or somthing of all the land music I also love the fantasy land but particularly the carousel loop as well❤ Dreaming of my next trip....😢
