Waiting an hour in line for one star wars ride?

"The good things in life"

Let's say you're one person that's $144 for a day at Disneyland including parking, not including meals, etc.

Let's say you stay 12 hours, you're paying $12 an hour for Disneyland. What do you get for that?

Let's be generous and say each ride is a 30 minute wait and not take into account time on the ride... you are paying $12 an hour for 2 rides an hour, 24 rides total, that's $6 you pay per ride. This doesn't include time walking trying to find the next ride, watching a parade, paying for meals and deducting the time it takes to eat, time to take pictures, the time waiting in line to use the restroom, etc.

For me it's no big deal and I'm an hour away from Disneyland been there many times love it!

For a family of 4 the cost per hour increases as do cost of meals, and anxiety levels, etc. the more anxiety and higher the cost the less likely the average family is willing to pay for the experience.
