| Doom Buggy Driver Thu 5/22/2008 10:21p | I have read Laughing Place for years but just decided to join this week. Thank you all for the great information I have received from your posts and questions. I wanted to ask a few of my own questions, I am sorry if these have been asked before. Why or why not (as the case may be) do you think Disney should offer a lifetime pass to the parks and how much do you think you would pay if they ever did offer such a pass? What about a decade pass or a 5 year pass? I know it is a pipe dream, but I think the general public would go for something like that don't you? I am a huge fan of Disneyland and we go several times a year. I would buy a ticket that was good for longer than a year and I would love a lifetime pass and be willing to pay quite q bit for one. Would you? Thank you in advance for your answers, this has really had my curiosity going for quite some time. |

For a lifetime international pass, I think I would part with $10,000, however I would be worried about the quality of the resorts if they already have your money. I no longer trust Disney like I used to. |

Would the pass be for a single park, or all the Disney parks? That would certainly make a difference in the price! |

I'm in my early 50's and hope that I will be good for another 30 years of DL Allowing for current PAP prices and inflation, I wouldn't mind paying $20,000.00 for a lifetime pass. Any more than that might make me balk because there are no guaranties I'll be around to enjoy it.
As a footnote, I would be willing to pay $25,000.00 or more if the lifetime pass was good for *ALL* the Disney parks. |

Just kidding but I think DVC originally offered free family passes with yearly visits to the timeshare. Too bad they don't have that perk anymore. I would like a premium pass good for both DL and WDW locations. |

My luck I'd get run over by a bus the day after I pay off the pass. |

sherrytodd don't worry, we'll have you embalmed and play "Week-end at Bernies" with your cadaver until we get you your moneys worth. |

Figure at a $400 annual fee, times 30 years - that totals $12K. By then, I'll be 70, so I might just be done with all of the new-fangled ideas that would be happening. |
