In discussing park price increases, Disney CEO Bob Chapek once said, “If demand goes up, then we have the opportunity to do that.” Well, we regret to inform your budgets, but it seems that the time for price increases has arrived.

We’ve seen price increases implemented for Genie+ at Disneyland, surge pricing introduced for the standard Genie+ service in Disney World, price increases announced for Savi’s Workshop and Droid Depot, and cost increases revealed for more experiences. Earlier in 2022, we also saw hundreds of price increases hit Disney World restaurants, and now it looks like food price increases are happening again.

Price increases have hit HUNDREDS of food items across many Disney World restaurants. There are a LOT of increases to look at, but for now, let’s take a look at some of the key increases. Keep in mind that this is just a sampling of the increases and is NOT comprehensive of ALL the increases that have taken place.

If you had already made a budget based on older prices, be sure to re-evaluate and see how/if these price increases will impact your trip.
