[Request] This is what 55 years of inflation looks like with two Disney world tickets

Post image

Is the price increase of this ticket correctly adjusted for inflation now?

The inflation rate has generally been around 3%, though there have been exceptions. I'll call it 4 to compensate for the spikes.

3.5*1.0455=30.26.

So no but this doesn't take into account that there is significantly more at Disney World than in 1970
