Tier 1 - Back 1/3 of the lot, tram service every 20 mins. $20
Tier 2 - Middle 1/3 of the lot, tram service every 10 mins. $30
Tier 3 - Front 1/3 of the lot, continual tram service. $40
VIP FastPark - Special roped off area with limo service to the gate. $150

It's a win-win for everybody, and enhances the guest experience! (Don't forget the gift shops at every tram pickup point). :mickey:

More like "Teared" Parking....cuz you cry every time you open your wallet.

I don't think $20 is bad at all. Don't forget, this is mostly for day guests as AP and resort guest are not charged. Once on site the person that pays the $20 is many times using Disney transportation to get around if the decide to hop.

By us, some of the beaches pay $20 a day and then there's always the $50 at Yankee Stadium that makes me twitch.

I agree. I paid $25-30 (can't remember which :D) to park at the Metlife Stadium in NJ for a Taylor Swift concert. So that's $300 for my ticket, plus the parking, plus the cost of extras like water or food that is not allowed to be brought into the stadium. I would also expect to pay $20 for parking if I wasn't staying on property anyway.

Any chance that parking fee is figured into the price of that resort room? So you may, in fact, be paying for parking if you have a car on the lot or not. :thedolls:

Oh I'm sure with their over inflated pricing it pretty much is.
Moderates at $140+ [for non AP and FL residents], is ridiculous.
Not to mention the way over priced $300+ resorts.
NO hotel is worth that.
More often than note we do off property $40-$70 a night hotels and they are just fine! We do quite a few mini weekends away since we are local. And many of those have free breakfast buffets.

But you are not going to the concert 5, 6, 7 or more days in a row.

Yeah, but then they'd all be taken anyways.

But for an extra $120 you can have "Front lot" parking for the day with your own personal golf cart ride to the gate and a dessert!

It's not sounding too bad. As long as they add in a :beer: too!
