I think the point is that what used to be cultural staples of American Society for families have now become more expensive. Going to free concerts as a young couple (along with other cheap dates) is actually also somewhat expected and if the pop culture references and stories from Boomers/GenXer are true, also a staple of American Society. That being said, going to Disneyland wasn’t a frequent trip kind of thing to most Americans anyways, and the Disneyland of the 60s and 70s is downright unrecognizable at times (chainlink fences at the park entrance). I think the article could have done without the Disneyland reference.
