Great Point, but it depends on the dynamics of the system. Obviously the old system would be a non-issue. A hybrid system that provides a healthy portion if not all guests at least 1 free Fastpass would be a lot easier to defend than a system that is 100% paid.
Agree with this.
The most logical system I could come up with:
All guests get 1 FP. I wouldn't want to alienate a portion of my guests by not making sure they had access to at least 1.
On site value and moderate get 2 FP. Reward those staying in the bubble.
On site deluxe get 3 FP.
Opportunity to earn more via a rewards system in the App. Opportunity to purchase more via the app as well.
This meets what I imagine is the goal to promote more spending, and to reward that spending with Disney. Doing it this way allows them not to penalize off site guests who may still be spending significantly. The same goes for AP holders (such as myself).
The opportunity to purchase FP makes sure that, at a minimum, the opportunity is there, even if you aren't spending big or staying at a Disney resort.
So to sum up: Everyone gets one. Rewards for those staying in the bubble. Rewards for spending more of your money. Ability to purchase them outright if none of the other options appeal to you.
This is the best I could come up with. I didn't go into specifics on rewards or FP pricing, as I think that would have to be a much bigger discussion, that included numbers that I definitely don't have access to.
