El fenómeno de la cortesía puede en ocasiones ser manipulado para convertirse en una estrategia fundamental al servicio del éxito comercial de algunas compañías multinacionales, especialmente de aquellas para las que la cordialidad del entorno, así como la alta calidad de servicio, constituyen características primordiales del producto ofertado. Este es el caso de los parques temáticos Disney, en los que la cortesía y amabilidad de los empleados se consideran una parte integral y muy apreciada de la experiencia del parque. El presente artículo analiza las tácticas de cortesía lingüística más relevantes adoptadas por los empleados de los parques temáticos Disney en sus interacciones con los visitantes, para concluir que la naturaleza, función y potenciales efectos sociales de la «cortesía Disney» constituyen un ejemplo de creación lingüística de la realidad orientada hacia el reforzamiento de la imagen corporativa de la compañía.
