After all,
they were selling themselves cheaper than Disney?s own VIP tour guides,
which come with a Fast Pass that doesn?t let you skip the line
altogether and still costs about three times more.

The last time I was at Disney (last fall) the fast pass was free. You
just get a pass at each ride and come back at the appointed time. Then
you get right on. If you stack those passes, it is hard to walk
between the rides fast enough to make all of them and you are riding
all day.

The "handicapped" situation is so loose, I can't imagine why anyone
would pay. You just have to say you are handicapped and they will
give/rent you a scooter. Then you can jump the line.
Most of the "handicapped" people I saw looked like their biggest
handicap was the inability to stop feeding their face.

I detest Disney World.

Took my kids there at least four times, and once to Disneyland. In the
spring or fall, it's a fun place to be. In the summer, it's a place to
be avoided because of the heat, humidity, and crowds. Went there about
three years ago for a few days, one day in Disney World, one day in the
Animal Park, which we enjoyed more. It was around Thanksgiving, and the
crowds weren't bad.

First time we went, back in the mid 1970s, the Orlando airport was
nothing much.

I have no problems at all with tropical heat and humidity. It's the
damned crowds. I've been there many many times, and I've NEVER seen it
when it was other than paying a LOT of money to go stand in lines. I'm
betting that the ratio of standing in line to actually riding a ride is
10:1 or so. I lived in Kissimmee when Disney opened in '71, it was a cow
town. Actual cowboys even. Disney ruined the area.
