Walt Disney World Ticket Prices 1970s
Walt Disney World Tickets from the 1970s
Just like Disneyland, Walt Disney World used the A-E ticket books. Each ticket book had a transportation ticket and Magic Kingdom entry ticket and additional tickets could be purchased throughout the park from small kiosks. Guests could also purchase general admission if they didn't plan on riding anything. The price of individual ride tickets were:
A Ticket: 10 cents
B Ticket: 25 cents
C Ticket: 50 cents
D Ticket: 75 cents
E Ticket: 90 cents
Each attraction with the exception of the Walt Disney Story, Diamond Horseshoe Revue, Circle-Vision 360, If You Had Wings and Carousel of Progress required a ticket.
A Ticket:
Main Street Vehicles
Cinderella's Golden Carrousel
B Ticket:
Main Street Cinema (later became an A ticket)
