Key Points

  • Ride wait times were surprisingly short over the weekend across Disney World, but it was largely because many guests were standing in lines ending in cash registers elsewhere.
  • An 18-month celebration gives Disney time to spread out the opening of new attractions and features.
  • Genie+ and Lightning Lane+ will be the true tests of Disney pricing elasticity, as well as the patience of those who refuse to pay for expedited queue access.
Walt Disney‘s (NYSE:DIS) huge theme park resort in Florida turned 50 over the weekend. If you missed the fete, don’t worry. Disney World will profit through patience, as it’s stretching the golden anniversary celebration until at least the end of March of 2023.

The 18-month celebration is lengthy by design. It will give Disney World the ability to spread out the opening of new rides and attractions. It will also help the House of Mouse work any kinks out of the new experiences. Disney World will wait for you, and it’s going to make a lot of money from others until you come around to pay your respects.
