Being a Disney Parks fan hasn’t been nearly as easy as it used to be. Before the global pandemic, things were good. You could visit the parks at your leisure. If you had an Annual Pass you could visit every single day if you wanted to, which some people did. FastPasses were (mostly) easy to get and use. Sure, prices always increased, but that always happened in small doses that allowed people to adapt.
But after the pandemic, things changed. The reservation system made visiting Disney parks more complicated. Annual passes went completely away at Disneyland and became hard to get at Walt Disney World. Price increases became more frequent and more significant. Things that used to be free at Disney World now cost money. It became increasingly harder to find the joy that the parks used to bring.
