ON-THE-GATE ticket prices at prices Walt Disney World in Orlando have risen to more than $100 (£64.70) a day for the first time.
A 6% hike means that single-day admission costs $111.83 (£72.35), including tax.
The increase applies to anyone aged 10 or over, while younger children aged three to nine will pay $99 (£64).
Ticket prices have doubled since 2003.
Rates for the company’s three other Orlando resorts will rise by 3% to $97. At Disneyland and the Disney California Adventure parks in Anaheim, California, tickets will rise 3% to $99.
A Disney spokeswoman said: ‘We continually add new offerings and experiences, and many of our guests select multi-day tickets or annual passes, which provide a great value and additional savings.’
Simon Applebaum, consumer marketing director at Floridatix.com said: ‘Booking theme park tickets in advance from the UK, rather than on-the-gate once you arrive, can seriously help customers save money. Especially in Florida and the US, when the exchange rate is forecast to worsen, booking ahead of time is highly beneficial for holidaymakers. One benefit is that they can effectively ‘freeze’ the amount they pay in pounds, and budget accordingly.’
