Back when Walt Disney World first opened in October of 1971, guests could visit the Most Magical Place On Earth for less than $4 per person! Adult tickets were $3.50 and children’s tickets were only $1. However, the price of admission didn’t include admission to any attractions like it does today.

In the early days of Walt Disney World, in addition to park admission, guests also had to purchase ride tickets. There were A, B, C, D, and E tickets available with prices starting at 10 cents for an A ticket and going all the way up to 90 cents for an E ticket. A tickets were for less popular attractions, such as the Main Street vehicles, while E tickets were for the most popular attractions such as It’s A Small World and The Haunted Mansion.
