% of Guests with Hoppers

[MOJoe]

I was wondering, as i was reading another thread about EMH and park hopping, just how many people hop vs. those who don't. I would wager that Disney does not release this type of info, but does anyone have an educated guess, or inside information as to the % of guests with park hopper tickets?

[crazeedizneefinatic]

I wonder also. It would be interesting to know. No concrete numbers here but I know of 6 families that have gone to Disney and 5 have done the park hopping option. We always do, it just gives you more freedom and you don't get "stuck" in one park. I hope someone comes along that can estimate. I would love to know.

This is an interesting question...I'd like to know the answer as well.

We didn't park hop on our first trip, and have every other trip...I like not having to worry if we want to eat dinner in a different park than we visited for the day.

I don't know the %, but we don't hop.

[MississippiDisneyFreak]

I'm not sure about stats, but we have never and would never go without the hopper option.

[SBETigg]

We're hoppers, too. It's such a great option for us. I can't imagine doing one park per day.

[MauiMouse]

When I don't have an AP, I hop.

[disneymom15]

We always buy hoppers. Don't hop every day we're there, but it's nice to have the option.

[Polynesian Dweller]

Don't know if Disney would actually reveal that info since it could impact their business but it would be very interesting.

For us, we hop so much that we couldn't imagine doing the world anyother way.

We always get the hoppers unless we are just driving through town and know we will only be there for a day or two. However, in September we had 5-day park hoppers and we did not use them once! I'm an AP, but we wasted $80 on DH and DS having this option. Towards the end of our trip I was trying to purposefully hop so as not to feel i wasted the $$, but DH said it was ridiculous to go out of our way on this - it was a sunk cost.

We are going again for 4 days in late Feb/early March and did not get the hoppers this time. I guess it's just harder to do with a 3yo. He gets so excited about whichever park we are currently in that we can't bear to leave and go somewhere else!

[SignguyTom]

We've always had hoppers, and always used them, though not necessarily every day of the trip. Sometimes for EMH, sometimes after dinner, especially if eating at a resort.

[BelleLovesTheBeast]

We always get the park hopper. Our trips are 7-11 days so we always use it. Most of the times it's so that we can do the EMH. We never go to the MMH but most of the time the EMH so it comes in handy.

[poeticeclipse]

We park hop and always have.

We're talking about cutting back on a trip and going bottom of the barrel. If we do that we won't be park hopping. Which, won't be so bad now that I think about it. If we don't have all of these ADR's all over the place then the main reason we buy hoppers would be eliminated.

We do enjoy being able to spend our time in two parks on one day. But, it's not a requirement.

We always hop! Even with a toddler, it's very easy. I like the idea of being at one park for most of the day, then go to another park for the evening and EMH!!

[DisneyDD2]

The last three times we've been we haven't hopped. It saves us some money and we have plenty to do in each park. We do have to plan our meals out more carefully when we're on the DDP. But that's fun, too.

Same here.

We get APs too.

[joonyer]

our family are hard core park commandos so we have always hopped. We love to hop back to MK after dinner for wishes, no matter where we've been earlier.

[SAnderson70769]

I can't imagine not Park Hopping. We love to go to a park in the morning - take a break and go back to our resort in the afternoon - then head out to a new park for dinner and more fun!

[Luv Eeyore]

We always park hop. Can't even imagine not being able to. Only 10 more days til we get there
