How Disney Vacations Became Too Expensive For Many Americans
Once a right of passage for most American families, theme parks like Disney World and Disneyland are quickly becoming out of reach for many middle class American families. Over the past 10 years, the average cost for a Disney World single-park ticket has increased more than 56%, above the national rate of inflation of 32% in the same period. And that doesn’t include the cost of food, merchandise, lightning lane, hotels and airfare. The average cost of a five-night Disney World vacation for a family of four in 2024, with all the bells and whistles, comes in at around $5,000, according to Wolfe Research. In its Q3 2024 earnings, Disney said its parks and experiences segment felt pressure due to lower consumer demand and inflation. This is a trend that is industry wide — Comcast’s Universal Studios also experienced a drop in attendance in 2024. Disney World is the most visited theme park in the world, but have recent price increases pushed inflation-weary Americans away? Will Disney trips continue to be a staple of American childhoods or is it becoming a luxury? CNBC explores.

Bank of America’s Head of U.S. Economics Michelle Meyer predicts a slower economy in 2019 compared to last year. A slowing global economy, especially from China, is likely to have an impact on the United States. But despite the risks being higher, the economic data shows an imminent recession may not be in the cards.
She also explains why wages have improved despite an aging population. “The labor market is tight,” she says. And it’s not just for high-skilled workers, but for lower income jobs as well.
Watch the video above to hear more from Bank of America’s Head of U.S. Economics Michelle Meyer.

For years following the Great Recession, “McMansion” were considered “ugly” or “bad investments,” mainly because they were considered unnecessarily large, had way too many amenities and built often with cheap materials. But during the pandemic when Americans sought to move to larger homes in the suburbs, they had a resurgence. In 2025, tariffs and immigration crackdowns will cause an increase on the price of new construction, helping the already built McMansions. But not all of these home are created equal.
