food IS a theme park
We’ve been back in Magic Kingdom this week and there are a lot of changes.
Magic Kingdom
We’ve been visiting the park since it opened last week to see what’s been happening at “The Most Magical Place on Earth” now that guests have returned to the parks.
All four Disney World theme parks have finally reopened after their longest closure in history.
Magic Kingdom
We’ve spent the better part of the last two weeks exploring the parks to show you all the changes that have been implemented while guests were away. From seas of social distancing markers to newly installed plexiglass barriers and temperature screening checkpoints, there’s certainly been a lot of new ground-breaking procedures to cover!
Walt Disney World has been making cuts, delaying construction projects, and making health and safety changes around the parks recently.
Cinderella Castle
This week alone, Disney made an official statement that the Spaceship Earth renovation and the new Mary Poppins attraction are being postponed. We just learned three new attractions that will allegedly close permanently.
The streets of Magic Kingdom are looking as magical as ever.
Magic Kingdom
We’re taking a tour through all of the lands of Disney’s flagship park today! You never know where we might spot something NEW. So come along as we take a look at all of the updates in construction and merchandise!
Two of Disney World’s theme parks have already reopened to the general public while the remaining two are set to open tomorrow.
EPCOT
All guests who visit must have valid theme park admission and a reservation to visit Disney World during its reopening phase. And availability for Annual Passholders has been pretty slim. Now, Disney has shared that they will be increasing availability for Annual Passholders.
We’re always on the lookout for Walt Disney World souvenirs that capture the charm of the characters and the parks. It’s fun to bring a piece of the magic home with you, right?
Emporium’s Check-Out
We found a fabulous collection of keychains that are almost too cute for words at one of Walt Disney World’s best-known shops.
Walt Disney World monorails are getting makeovers and we’ve been catchin’ the trains to get a good look at them!
Monorail
We spotted a sleek and futuristic Monorail Silver that looks like something straight outta the future. Then Monorail Green stole our hearts with a vibrant splash of color and new seats! It’s Monorail Peaches’ turn to get some love! [Read more…]
Being back inside Magic Kingdom for the first time in many months has been a totally surreal experience. Even though we’re Disney experts, there’s been a lot of changes and we’ve had to learn so many new things! Oh, and did we mention Cinderella Castle is now a PINK cutie?!
Magic Kingdom
But we’ve made it our mission to address every readers’ biggest concerns including, “Do we have to wear our face masks on water rides?” and “How is Disney World handling pin trading at the parks?” And now it’s time to cover a SUPER-important topic that impacts us ALL — what’s the current sitch with Disney World’s restrooms???
Ever since Disney made the announcement that Splash Mountain was going to be reimagined with a The Princess and the Frog theme, the attraction and merchandise have become wildly popular.
Splash Mountain
Ride times have been hovering around 35-45 minutes daily while we’ve seen virtual queues for the Splash Mountain store exceed four hours! People are serious about snagging their Br’er Bear Plush!
Update: We spoke with a General Manager Cast Member who confirmed for us Disney World is not selling new Tables in Wonderland memberships for the time being. We’ll provide more updates as soon as more information becomes available.
Walt Disney World has undergone a lot of changes since re-opening. We’ve seen limited menus, increased sanitation procedures, and many changes to experiences like rides and attractions.
Tables in Wonderland Membership Card
One of the most surprising changes was the cancelation of the Disney Dining Plan. Many guests rely on the dining plan to budget for their vacations. We were curious to see what the process would be like for guests who use the Tables in Wonderland dining discount card. Would Cast Members honor the discount for those of us whose cards expired during the closure? [Read more…]
