Sure. That would be a reasonable fee for a service the participants are actually using.
I'm not sure $10 per day would cover the costs, but charge whatever you want to charge to those who actually use the service. Fine. If people who use the service want more frequent scheduling, they can pay for it.
Im just wondering if the 12 bucks were labeled something else, energy fee, captial gains depreciation recovery fee, special projects fee, resort fee or anyone of the other amorphous fees that are associated with rental cars or hotel rentals, would people still be up in arms abut this ?
I think one of the big advantages of WBC is clearly the cost/proximity, which is far better for WBC for the concession of not stating on property. Now the $ 12 a day is not going to make it comparable to disney properties just marginally less of a good deal. mabey this drives it over the tipping point for some people.
No one likes it when things get more expensive, perhaps there should be a sliding scale not based on unit but on bedroom number or occupancy.
we stayed in a three bedroom deluxe with nine of us, we never used the shuttle but if we had to pay for it it would be 1.33 more per person per day. if its is two people in a one bedroom thats 6 bucks a day. I understand the principle, no one likes getting nickle and dimed ( which is why a lot of people like wbc because they dont charge resort fees like a lot of the resort and non-resort hotels in orlando do) but I dont see how a couple of bucks a day is going to break the budget.
I'm not an owner so I dont have to worry about points. I can see exempting WBC owners from the fee, and possibly other wyndham owners who physically stay there, but for owners or clearing houses that exchange their points for cash, if the cost was rolled into the cost up front and not expected to be paid at check in, I suspect the uproar would be dramatically less because it would still be significantly cheaper than on property.
I am sure that the overwhelming majority of people in this thread have way more experience with WBC than I do, we just got back about 10 days ago so we escaped the transportation fee. Looking back I probably would not have liked it if we had to pony up the money but I'm not sure that it would have changed my perception of the place and I am quite confident that in the event I have the opportunity to revisit orlando, WBC will still be at the top of my list of places to stay.
