Domestic Parks and Resorts

At our domestic parks and resorts, revenue growth was primarily due to increased guest spending, theme park attendance and vacation club ownership sales at Walt Disney World, partially offset by a decrease at the Disneyland Resort. Increased guest spending at Walt Disney World was due to higher ticket prices, a higher average daily room rate and increased food and beverage and merchandise spending. The decline at the Disneyland Resort was primarily due to lower attendance and merchandise spending reflecting the success of the 50th Anniversary Celebration in the prior-year quarter, partially offset by higher ticket prices.

The following table presents attendance, per capita theme park guest spending and hotel statistics for our domestic properties:

Domestic Parks and Resorts

At our domestic parks and resorts, increased revenues were due to increased guest spending, theme park attendance, and hotel occupancy, as well as higher sales at Disney Vacation Club. Higher guest spending was due to a higher average daily hotel room rate, higher average ticket prices, and greater merchandise spending at both resorts. Increases in attendance and hotel occupancy were led by the 50th anniversary celebration at both domestic resorts, which concluded at the end of September 2006.

Domestic Parks and Resorts

At our domestic parks and resorts, revenue growth was due to increased guest spending and attendance, higher hotel occupancy and strong sales at Disney Vacation Club. Increased guest spending was due to a higher average daily hotel room rate at both domestic resorts, higher average ticket prices at Disneyland Resort and increased food, beverage and merchandise spending at both domestic resorts. Increased attendance and hotel occupancy were driven by the 50th anniversary celebration at both domestic resorts, which concludes in late 2006.
