Hope that Brexit doesn't happen. That's the only thing that's gonna fix the price.

oh it's happening but the pound was over valued against other currencies anyway before that and would have taken a turn back anyway at some point. Had the prices moved what they have or will and brexit hadn't have happened i do wonder how many people would actually notice as much. We booked a year before brexit and 6 months after and the second holiday was actually cheaper for two weeks on disney then a split stay at disney/cabana bay

Before the drop it was roughly 1.45
So 5700 x 1.45 = $8265
now at 1.20
7200 x 1.20 = $8640

Not a huge increase in the dollar value of the holiday.

I sometimes go on a US WDW forum and the Americans are moaning about the price increases - a lot! So I think it is down to Disney increasing the prices.

£-$ had been roughly in the same range for 8 years

Nope, it's for one room.
It may be a matter of waiting, I think until next month... Prices may change then.
I'm pretty sure there was a difference last year between my quotes in March and late April.

It hasn't. It was on a downward track since around summer 2014.

Looks like it's been in the 1.4 to 1.6 bracket to me (roughly)

Either way Can't be any argument that the referendum result as cause a £ to devalue. And surely this is a factor on the incresed prices of things bought outside the UK (such as Disney Holidays)
