food IS a theme park
Summer in Disney World this year is going to be a LOT different than previous summers.
Cinderella Castle
You see, this summer, a lot of NEW things are coming to Disney World, and we think we could see some serious summer crowds!
Disney World’s free transportation system really can’t be beat. It’s FREE, for starters, but it’s also efficient and convenient.
Disney Springs
Between Disney World buses, the Monorail, the Skyliner, and boats, you can get to pretty much anywhere you need to go on Disney World property. But sometimes closures can happen that can affect how you get from point A to point B. For example in bad weather, the Skyliner closes. Other circumstances also affect transportation, and we’ve got a closure to warn you about.
Disney World hotels have a lot going on right now…and by a lot…we mean a LOT of construction.
Disney’s Yacht Club
This is especially true with Disney World’s deluxe hotels. Many of them are under construction in some way. Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort is getting a brand new Disney Vacation Club Villas building. The Grand Floridian Resort & Spa has been under construction for what feels like FOREVER. There’s a ton of construction at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn to bring TWO new dining spots to the area. And, well, another Disney World hotel will be undergoing construction in 2025.
What souvenirs do you like to bring home from Disney World?
What souvenirs do you like to get in Disney World?
We know a LOT of you are all about the pins (and pin trading). We know some of us like to bring home new ornaments for our Christmas tree. Of course, ears are ALWAYS a good souvenir to grab, as are popcorn buckets and sippers. However, there’s one super UNIQUE souvenir in Disney World that we are obsessed with, and it’s BACK!
If we can find ways to help you save on your Disney World vacation, we’ll share those tips with you.
Cinderella Castle
That’s why we always try to keep you updated on the latest sales on airfare (because you’ve got to GET to Disney World, right?). We’ll also tell you about any kind of deals and promotions Disney World is offering at any given time. We’ll even let you know when you can get discounts on Disney gift cards, which you can use for your trip. Well, now we’ve got a new Disney gift card deal to tell you about, and it’s for you, Sam’s Club members!
We know a lot of our DFB readers are big fans of Southwest Airlines.
Southwest Airlines at the Orlando Airport
The airline offers a LOT of nonstop flights to Orlando International Airport, after all, and that gets us to Disney World faster, right? You can also occasionally get some really good deals on airfare from Southwest, too. Plus who doesn’t love the whole “two free checked bags” policy that really makes Southwest stand out from the competition? However, Southwest’s boarding process has proved to be controversial — but that process could be changing SOON.
We have several BIG Disney movies to look forward to soon!

Inside Out 2 is set to open this summer on June 14th, and we’ve also got Mufasa: The Lion King releasing on December 20th (just in time for Christmas!). However, we’re really excited that there are TWO Moana movies in the works, including Moana 2, which releases on November 27th, and a live-action Moana. Now, we’ve got a huge update on BOTH films.
Going to Disney World is a lot of fun — no one can argue with that.
The Haunted Mansion
But sometimes, for just brief moments, it can be something else. Sometimes, it can be overwhelming (especially when it’s crowded and lines for everything are long). Sometimes, it can induce anxiety. The same goes for rides in Disney World: The rides are fun, but certain things can be VERY awkward — EVERY single time.
Did you know that weighted plushes can help with everything from insomnia to anxiety?
Weighted plushes
Yes, it’s true! Kids especially benefit from weighted plushes and there’s even been research showing that they can even benefit people with autism. If you’re a Disney fan, you might have been looking for some Disney weighted plushes, but now, we’ve done all the work for you.
Okay, so who is SO ready to go on a cruise on the Disney Treasure?

Disney Cruise Line has really gone out with this new ship, which will include a Haunted Mansion-themed bar, a Coco restaurant, a Jungle Cruise-inspired lounge, and so much more. The Disney Treasure will also feature a sweets shop called Jumbeaux’s Sweets inspired by Zootopia, and we now have a first look at that sweets shop.
