Disneyland Announces 30% Jump In Prices

Disneyland Announces 30% Jump In Prices, A 30 percent increase in ticket prices at California’s Disneyland is meant to discourage local season pass purchases, an industry expert said.Tickets to the Anaheim Disney parks — Disneyland and Disney California Adventure Park — rose May 20, from $80 to $87 for daily passes and from $499 to $649 for annual passes including parking.

David Koenig, the author of four books about Disney theme parks, said the major price increase is most likely because the park will introduce the new Cars Land attraction this season, the Los Angeles Times reported Saturday.

“If it wasn’t for Cars Land, the increase would be $4 or $5. Park-goers will go to see Cars Land.” (UPI)
