I do!

Yeah, IDGAF because I took my kids once and it was awful and am never going back, but this thingy probably would have made it a bit less terrible.

Big fan of capitalism. However, this thing is a giant money grab on an already expensive trip. We're planning one more trip next year when my daughter is a senior. Last time I feed the rat.

That something like that is helpful or necessary makes going to those places seem horrible to me.

I would seriously consider putting double job money toward being a VIP guest. They have a Disney employee take you wherever you want to go and plan everything out for you. I'd let the fam tell the employee where to go and just be along for the ride.

I have considered trying to put together an unofficial version of this and like train a team of college kids to tour around families and get them reservations and plan their rides and crap and tell them interesting stories about the stuff as they walk them around. Obviously can’t cut them to fronts of lines and crap like the official but I’d also only charge $500 for 8 hours instead of like the $10k they charge.

Agree this seems like a good third party opportunity.

I'd rather put that money towards a shitty car to drive into the ocean

I find it interesting they call it genie. Genies are altruistic, you don't buy wishes.

Magic Kingdom is dead this morning. 20 minute lines everywhere. Wasn't the case at Epcot and Animal Kingdom earlier this week. Guess it's a late arriving Spooktacular crowd.
