Good grief another price increase. Also, buying that cruise reeks of some old Eisner cost cutting and building on the cheap. Let's just slap a theme on top of a pre built. The old ships have a timeless luxury design versus the new one.
The ship is going to Asia so 18 of the 19 floors are for slot machines.
Ahhh yes lets buy a ship and cut jobs will ya!!! Who's gonna man it, the ghosts of the pirates of the Caribbean ?
Remember, Tom, the applause award for my Apple was handed out this week. It’ll make you very happy who won.
Cruise ships change hands and companies all the time, no big deal here, then lets jack up the ticket prices some more , lol
I don't know if there are enough people who have money to pay premium for Disney cruises. Disney has been raising prices like crazy pricing out a lot of people. Chapek has soured a lot of people on Disney.
Why do you say American cruisers would take umbrage with DIsney's purchase of the ship? I wouldn't mind sailing on it. There is planty of construction left to Disney-fy it.
"Hate and despise" LOL Ooooo love it, so nice to have you back Tom. Not to say Eric didn't do a good job. Oh, I have yet to go on my first cruise and I want it to be a Disney Cruise, while it's still a good deal to do so. Just not sure what ship yet. Thanks for the update, Tom. 😃
….until another pandemic…..uh-oh…..
They should have housing for disney workers. I think they said something bout it real quick but I'm not even a florida resident and hear about their employees being homeless and living out their cars..
Welcome back Tom!
Welcome back Tom great report..thank you….WIGS👍
Disney needs more rides in the parks.
Well, thanksgiving 2023 is the year I'm meeting my parents for the semi annual meetup in Orlando. While we'll be staying at Shades (my father loves the thanksgiving buffet and it's a good deal) other attractions will be getting our money. Nothing says thank you to our active duty military and retired vets like blackout dates. That's ok, based on Thanksgiving 2021 other attractions are more than happy for the custom. And who wouldn't want to spend an entire day at Gatorland, who let military in for free?
So Disney is not only increasing ticket prices and planning to lay off employees but then they go and obtain yet ANOTHER cruise ship? 🤔 Hope their hardcore park fans are getting ready for still another price hike.
With all the strategy needed to plan a Disney vacation I’m surprised they haven’t come out with a Disney 101 class. Of course I’m kidding, Chapek ,don’t get any ideas .
Though i do want more disney cruise ships so they can be add im more parts of the us and do different itenaries you shouldnt cut people from the parks or the cruise ships the guest cast interaction are huge for the disney experience thats something universal still hasnt fully gotten and forget six flags for that but if chapek leaves thats the first thing the next ceo should address
Personally I think buying the global dream could be really cool. I don't think it's a big deal that it's not a disney build from scratch and it could be great. Honestly one of the few good things Chapstick has done
$179 for 1 day…no thanks! Glad I got an annual pass and won't be renewing if the price is raised. Also why don't they give the staff a raise??? Instead of affordable housing? 😫
13:46–14:43 WHAT!?!
Don't worry! Disney ONLY raises their prices on days ending with "DAY"
Welcome back!
At least have a Starcruiser section in the ship just like at Orlando but….better.
