Returning after 3 years away... what changes will we notice (prices, iDrive, Universal etc)

[Shooby doo]

I think one of the biggest changes is the cost, portions are still the same but certainly meals are on par or slightly dearer than UK. For instance the big pizza at Via Napoli was $45 now that's £36 on today's FX rate for a pizza that 2 of us ate. The FX rate is everything, clothes, trainers etc are now a lot closer to what you pay here & in some cases less in the UK- I had actually paid less for my New Balance trainers than I could get them there & my sis had asked for some Timberland boots, again they were cheaper back in UK. A disney burger & fries is a tenner...

Be aware that even the Outlets are charging for parking in certain areas.[/QUOTE]

Can I ask which outlets are charging?

See more...

Is it really $25 for parking at the parks now?!

Hot dog n crisps at universal $14. It’s definitely more expensive everywhere. No bargains anymore.

Vinelands outlet and the big one on I'Drive charge. They do have free parking but they were rammed!

We hadn't been for 10 years and we found the roads MUCH busier, parks really expensive to eat in (2 normal size hotdogs and fries, fries on their own and 3 drinks $50 in MK). Found restaurants pretty much the same, Publix had gone expensive but found Walmart still reasonable. Charge for parking is ridiculous, although one day we did get free parking as we tried to pay $14 of it in change

We expected the high prices for food in parks and just accepted it, it was extremely hot whilst we were there so we had no appetite and were just eating one meal a day.
