Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]  
General
1. General
 
Basis of Presentation
- The unaudited consolidated financial statements for the 13 weeks ended March 28, 2019 and March 29, 2018 have been prepared by the Company. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the unaudited interim financial information at March 28, 2019, and for all periods presented, have been made. The results of operations during the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire year or other interim periods. However, the unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 27, 2018.
 
Accounting Policies
- Refer to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements (including footnotes) for the fiscal year ended December
27, 2018,
contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for such year, for a description of the Company’s accounting policies.
 
During the 13 weeks ended March 28, 2019, there were no significant changes made to the Company’s significant accounting policies other than the changes attributable to the adoption of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02,
Leases (Topic 842)
, which was adopted on December 28, 2018. The lease policy updates are applied prospectively in the Company’s financial statements from December 28, 2018 forward. Reported financial information for the historical comparable period was not revised and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect during the historical periods. See Note 3 for further discussion.
 
Depreciation and Amortization
- Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment are provided using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or any related lease terms. Depreciation expense totaled $15,955,000 and $14,036,000 for the 13 weeks ended March 28, 2019 and March 29, 2018, respectively.
 
Earnings Per Share
- Net earnings per share (EPS) of Common Stock and Class B Common Stock is computed using the two class method. Basic net earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for the effect of dilutive stock options using the treasury method. Convertible Class B Common Stock is reflected on an if-converted basis. The computation of the diluted net earnings per share of Common Stock assumes the conversion of Class B Common Stock, while the diluted net earnings per share of Class B Common Stock does not assume the conversion of those shares.
 
Holders of Common Stock are entitled to cash dividends per share equal to 110% of all dividends declared and paid on each share of Class B Common Stock. As such, the undistributed earnings for each period are allocated based on the proportionate share of entitled cash dividends. The computation of diluted net earnings per share of Common Stock assumes the conversion of Class B Common Stock and, as such, the undistributed earnings are equal to net earnings for that computation.
 
The following table illustrates the computation of Common Stock and Class B Common Stock basic and diluted net earnings per share for net earnings and provides a reconciliation of the number of weighted-average basic and diluted shares outstanding:

Fair Value Measurements
- Certain financial assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value in the consolidated financial statements. Some are measured on a recurring basis while others are measured on a non-recurring basis. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value each time a financial statement is prepared. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a non-recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value when a significant event occurs. A fair value measurement assumes that a transaction to sell an asset or transfer a liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.
 
The Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified in one of the following categories:
 
Level 1
- Assets or liabilities for which fair value is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments as of the reporting date. At March 28, 2019 and December 27, 2018, respectively, the Company’s $5,697,000 and $5,302,000 of debt and equity securities were valued using Level 1 pricing inputs and were included in other current assets.
 
Level 2
- Assets or liabilities for which fair value is based on pricing inputs that were either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. At March 28, 2019 and December 27, 2018, respectively, the Company’s $719,000 and $
205,000
liability related to the Company’s interest rate swap contracts was valued using Level 2 pricing inputs.
 
Level 3 
- Assets or liabilities for which fair value is based on valuation models with significant unobservable pricing inputs and which result in the use of management estimates. At March 28, 2019 and December 27, 2018, 
none of the Company’s fair value measurements were valued using 
Level 3 pricing 
inputs, other than those discussed in Note 2
.
 
Defined Benefit Plan

Included in other revenues is an immaterial amount related to rental income that is not considered revenue from contracts with customers under ASC 
Topic 606
.
 
The Company had deferred revenue from contracts with customers of $36,562,000 and $37,048,000 as of March 28, 2019 and December 27, 2018, respectively. The Company had no contract assets as of March 28, 2019 and December 27, 2018. During the 13 weeks ended March 28, 2019, the Company recognized revenue of $10,183,000 that was included in deferred revenues as of December 27, 2018. 
 
A significant majority of the Company’s revenue is recorded in less than one year from the original contract. As of March 28, 2019, the amount of transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations under the Company’s advanced ticket sales was $
4,823,000
and is reflected in the Company consolidated balance sheet as part of deferred revenues, which is included in other accrued liabilities. The Company recognizes revenue as the tickets are redeemed, which is expected to occur with the next two years. As of March 28, 2019, the amount of transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations under the Hotels and Resorts loyalty program was $
192,000
, of which, $
71,000
is reflected in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet in deferred compensation and other. The Company recognizes revenue upon reward redemption, which is expected to occur within the next two years. As of March 28, 2019, the amount of transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations related to the amount of Hotels and Resorts non-redeemed gift cards was $
2,342,000
and is reflected in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as part of deferred revenues. The Company recognizes revenue as the gift cards are redeemed, which is expected to occur within the next two years.
 
New Accounting Pronouncements – 
On December 28, 2018, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02, 
Leases (Topic 842)
, which is intended to improve financial reporting related to leasing transactions. 
ASC 842 
requires a lessee to recognize on the balance sheet assets and liabilities for rights and obligations created by leased assets with lease terms of more than 12 months. The new guidance also requires disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from the leases. See Note 3 for further discussion.
 
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04,
Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) - Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment
, which eliminates Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test that had required a hypothetical purchase price allocation. Rather, entities should apply the same impairment assessment to all reporting units and recognize an impairment loss for the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value, without exceeding the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Entities will continue to have the option to perform a qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. ASU No. 2017-04 is effective for the Company in fiscal 2020 and must be applied prospectively. The Company does not believe the new standard will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
 
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14,
