Disney’s Q3 Earnings Show the Future of Disney Parks, and Our Wallets May Not Like It

Disney’s latest earnings make it pretty clear that higher guest spending, premium add-ons, resort expansion, Disney Vacation Club growth, and a much larger cruise fleet are not temporary trends. They are the strategy.

I have mixed feelings about it. The rising cost is pushing some families to visit less often, and Disney seems increasingly comfortable with guests spending more per trip, even if they come less frequently.

At the same time, the results are working. Disney Experiences generated more than $3 billion in quarterly operating income, and that success gives the company every reason to keep investing in new attractions, resorts, DVC properties, and cruise ships.

So while our wallets may not like the future of Disney Parks, the strong financial performance could also mean more meaningful expansion ahead.
