The following story from Pirates & Princesses is interesting, in a "Roz" sort of way: www.piratesandprincesses.net/disneyland-gets-more-discounts-for-star-wars-experiences-what-about-walt-disney-world-bob/ "... I'm watching you Wazowski ... always watching ...." In fairness, I am among those who would decidedly rather win a free trip to WDW than Disneyland, so some pricing asymmetry may be demand-justified. However, given the fraught (and incompletely resolved) California vs. Florida political vibes within Disney the last several months, I am not certain that very many pro-California pricing differentials are a great idea, unless the specific experiences are materially different.  |

The experiences are completely different and I'm not sure that the "political vibes" matter to the vast majority of park goers. I'd consider it a non-issue in their planning.
Cheers.

Likely has to do with more visitors to Disneyland are locals vs. WDW and frequent guests are less likely to load up on "one-time" souvenirs and need a bit more incentive to do so.

The lightsaber & droid-building experiences are different? Or are you saying the experience of being at WDW & Disneyland? I'd agree with the latter. I've only done the lightsaber & droid at WDW. I'd be curious if/why they are different at DL. I was under the assumption the two lands were identical. If that is the case, the price difference doesn't make sense to me (other than demand). |

Definitely the latter, While a given discount may be for some specific thing, offering at one location versus another is more likely a reflection of the location as a whole. And, as we all know, these are vastly different.
Cheers.

DLR and WDW are run independently so different discounts just like different AP programs has always been the case. |
