Looking at these reviews clearly shows you what's wrong with people and selfish expectations. People complaint that they show up late and can't be at the front of the line or front of the parking structure, or go where they want. I personally find Disney extremely democratic. First come, first served. They do a great job Manning sure the people who waited in line get to stay in line, the number of people who show up 5 minutes before a show and feel entitled to walk to the front is incredible. None of this is Disney's fault, it's ignorant people! Spend 20 minutes on the website or 20 minutes in the real world and guess what:
1. There are peak seasons. Peak season means MORE people, MORE money. MORE lines. It's you're decision to endure this out go in a non peak day.
2. All these people came for the same experience you did, paid the same price, you're not special.
3. It's a business if they can charge $12 for a hamburger they will. It's YOUR job to know this and pack something or go off park and eat. You have options use them, don't complain about it.
3. Supply and demand drivers prices. Closer to the park means more expensive hotel, peak season means higher priced, exciting new ride means longer lines. This isn't being done to screw up your vacation alone! It's not all about you. It's the byproduct of capitalism and capitalism is probably what have you the money in the first place to get there.
4. Ignore the negative comments or write down the constructive comments and use them to plan your holiday accordingly. Don't let some idiot who didn't plan and expected things to go his way ruin a magical holiday. It can get busy, hot, and expensive, plan accordingly.
5. Yes Disneyland is only two parks. 3days is enough, 4 if you're slow. Disneyland is Magic Kingdom in Disneyworld. California Adventure a second park. That's it. Universal Studios is in Los Angeles so that's a longer drive then in Florida. Disneyland is a 5-7 day holiday compared to a 7-10 day holiday in Disneyworld.
6. If you're just doing just the parks you won't need a car like you do in Disneyworld.
7. Newport, San Diego, LA are all great day trips.
8. Stormtroopers yell at you, they're Stormtroopers.
9. Disneyland is a we'll oiled machine. If you're slow or like to demand things or people do what you want you'll have no luck or influence at Disneyland. The KAREN'S of the world must hate it there.
Disneyland is exactly what you'd expect from a big American company and theme park. Go with your word open knowing this and you'll have fun. Wear sensible shoes and bring money.
