Some travelers may be able to visit Disney World a little easier now.
Florida Sunset
Florida has been under a state of emergency since March 9th due to the global health crisis. On March 24th, Governor Ron DeSantis signed an Executive Order mandating that all travelers from the New York Ti-State Area to Florida would be required to undergo a mandatory quarantine. On July 7th, the travel restriction was extended along with the state of emergency.
Now, though, Governor DeSantis has signed a new Executive Order that rescinds the mandatory quarantine for tri-state travelers.

It’s a good day to be a Walt Disney World Annual Passholder!

Of course, we love a good discount, but this new perk might be the BIGGEST of the day. Annual Passholders are getting a NEW MAGNET!

We’re swinging by Aloha Isle in Magic Kingdom for a pretty exciting menu update.

The global health crisis has brought along another major event cancellation in Disney World.

We’ve already seen several of the events canceled, and now the rest of the scheduled Moonlight Magic events have been canceled for 2020.
