Wait times can get pretty lengthy sometimes in the Disney Parks. If you are planning your next Disney World vacation, you’re in luck! We are breaking down the DO’s and DONT’s of the Genie+ system so you can get more bang for your buck!
Walt Disney World is full of rides and attractions for all ages. We like to help everyone in your party enjoy their favorite rides without sacrificing magical moments on Main Street, U.S.A., in the process. So, let’s save the help of Genie+ for the longest lines in the parks, and we will go over which rides are better suited for the standby line.
It’s been a HUGE week for food in Disney World.
First, we have to talk about ALL THE NEW FALL Starbucks drinks that arrived this week (and we’ll get to that). We also visited Casey’s Corner, one of our fave counter service restaurants, and ate EVERYTHING there. We also ate a hotdog with a boozy shake (#sorrynotsorry). In the meantime, though, Disney World restaurant menus were changing, so let’s see what’s been updated!
While visiting Disney World, it can seem nearly impossible to experience all the rides and attractions within a week-long visit or less.
Lines for several fan-favorite attractions can quite literally be HOURS long, and Disney’s skip-the-line service, Genie+, doesn’t always fit everybody’s budget. We typically recommend rope dropping each of the Disney World parks to hit those super popular attractions early in the day. Rope dropping is when you show up to the parks as soon as they’re open in order to be among the first people on a ride or attraction. This “hack” allows you a shorter wait in most cases, so that you aren’t spending your whole day waiting in line. While we totally recommend this trick for people visiting three of the Disney World parks, there’s one park that makes us feel a little hesitant when recommending the rope drop strategy.
There are a number of problems you may face in Disney World and you probably think you’re prepared for a lot of them, but there’s ONE you might not be thinking about at all.
No, it doesn’t have to do with Genie+ (though that can be complicated), Park Passes (which will get a big change in 2024!), or Dining Reservations (which have seen a big change recently). This one is related specifically to grabbing DRINKS in Disney World, and we’re not even talking about alcoholic ones — just your regular soda or water too.
We’ve seen a number of permanent closures this year in Disney World. but there are also some locations that were allegedly temporarily closed — and still haven’t reopened .
Some of these indefinite restaurant closures date back several years, and that leaves us wondering if these locations will ever re-open.
Do you have a favorite Disney World ride?
If you’re like us, you might have SEVERAL favorites, but the truth of the matter is that almost EVERY Disney World ride just SLAPS. Disney Imagineering has blown our minds on MULTIPLE occasions with attractions like Rise of the Resistance in Hollywood Studios and Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind in EPCOT. But what if we could only choose the three that are practically perfect in every way?
It’s been a VERY exciting week in Disney World when it comes to food.
A brand new restaurant surprised us and opened early in EPCOT (and we ate a $300 sushi boat with ZERO regrets). The way you book dining on the Disney World website and My Disney Experience app has changed (and we think, it’s for the better). More EPCOT Food and Wine food booths opened, too! PLUS we saw some updates on Disney World restaurant menus, so let’s talk about those.
There are a LOT of places to eat in Disney World.
The issue is, not all Disney World restaurants are created equal, so it’s possible you may not have a great meal when there could have been a new meal a few minutes away. That’s why we’re here — to help you decide where to eat (among many other things). However, there’s one restaurant in each of the Disney parks that can usually please everyone.
Disney World snacks are often unmatched — and trust us, we’ve pretty much tried them all.
And while you’ve probably heard about some of the most iconic eats at Magic Kingdom and EPCOT, we happen to think Animal Kingdom is severely underrated when it comes to snacks. We love snagging the newest eats and treats, but sometimes you just crave an old standby — so come with us to see if one, in particular, still holds up!
