Less than eight months since ticket prices were increased at the Florida theme parks, the company hiked prices today by about 4 percent. It will now cost $99 to enter the Magic Kingdom for one day, according to the Disney World website.
The price increased by $4 for all the parks. The single day cost to get into Epcot, Animal Kingdom or Hollywood Studios is $94. The company last year started putting a premium to get into the Magic Kingdom for one-day, that is why it is $5 more to get into that park.
According to a review of previous price hikes, Disney on average has raised the single-day price every 10 months. The shortest time period between price hikes was three months. This took place between June and September 1982 when the price increased from $13.25 to $15.
Increases for multi-day tickets range from 2.17 percent to 5.38 percent. Interestingly, the prices for multiple days increase dramatically to the 4-day ticket, which is 5.38 percent. Everyday over a 4-day ticket, the percentage increase is smaller.
Tickets for children 3-9 have also increased by about the same percentage.
Annual passes have also gone up.The regular annual pass increased to $634 from $609. The premium annual pass increased to $754 from $729.
