This EXCLUSIVE Magic Kingdom Reservation Is Now Way Easier To Get

By 4 Comments

If you’re planning a Disney World vacation, you might find getting reservations to some of the HOTTEST dining and experiences can be quite difficult.

Magic Kingdom

Want to grab a reservation for Chef Mickey’s at Disney’s Contemporary Resort? We wish you luck! Want to take a trip up a space elevator to experience Space 220 at EPCOT? That could be difficult to do. Want to make a lightsaber at Savi’s Workshop in Disney’s Hollywood Studios? Better make that reservation QUICKLY. Getting into Oga’s Cantina can also be a chore.

NEWS: Record-Breaking Temperatures Are Causing Soda Cans To EXPLODE on Southwest Airlines Flights

By Leave a Comment

If you’ve spent any time outside in the Northern Hemisphere this summer, then you know just how hot it is out there.

The heat can be unbearable

Temperatures are soaring at Disney World (but we’ve got plenty of great tips on how to stay hydrated, cool, and find some shade!) and experts have even warned that this year’s Atlantic hurricane season will be worse because of warmer water temperatures as well. And, while we never thought we’d have to be worried about soda cans exploding on airplanes because of the heat, apparently, we do.

By 4 Comments

Many of us have to budget for our Disney World trips, including figuring out how to get all the sales, discounts, and deals we can find.

That’s why we’re always sharing when you can get Disney gift cards at a discount or when an airline has a great sale, we want you to know about these deals so you don’t miss out. However, there’s one ticket discount we’re not sure we’ve mentioned yet, and it may be one you don’t even know about. We will warn you, though, this discount might make you feel old (it’s okay, though, we ALL gotta get old someday).

It’s Rare That Anything Surprises Me Anymore, but This Hollywood Studios Addition Made Me Smile

By 1 Comment

Characters are a ton of fun to interact with while hanging out in the Disney World parks!

We love meeting characters in Disney World!

Meeting characters is not just for kids! Kids and adults alike enjoy these special interactions. Hugging your favorite character can make anyone’s day extra special. There are some characters that you can find regularly around the parks. Joy, Mickey, Minnie, Ariel, Edna Mode, Olaf, and more have daily meet and greets in designated locations that you can visit. However, there are a few characters that roam at random times on random days, and some characters are extremely RARE to see out and about. The other day, we stumbled upon one of these rare meet-and-greets!

5 Strange Things Disney World Pros Always Pack

By Leave a Comment

We know packing for Disney always consists of the same thing: Toothbrush? Check. Shoes? Check. Sunscreen that’s pretty much necessary thanks to the unforgivable Florida heat? Check X100.

Magic Kingdom

The basics are necessary, but there are some items that real Disney pros pack to avoid any hiccups during their trip, and we think these should be just as necessary as shoes and sunscreen.

NEWS: Disney Hotels Sharing Important Information Before Major July 24th Changes

By Leave a Comment

For years, Disney World has experimented with different ways to skip the lines at its popular attractions. There was FastPass+, there were paper tickets and kiosks, and eventually, there was Genie+. These days, if you want to access the Lightning Lane (a.k.a. the shorter “express lane”), you need to pay an additional fee. As it stands currently (now through July 23rd, 2024), Disney Genie provides access to Lightning Lanes as well as other planning tools to help you maximize your time in Disney World. But soon, this service is changing.

In fact, BIG changes are coming to Genie+ at Disney World SOON! Starting July 24th, 2024, there will be an official name for the Lightning Lane service that is currently part of Disney Genie. Say hello to Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Lightning Lane Single Pass, an updated version of Genie+ and Individual Lightning Lanes. OK, this may sound confusing, but we’re here to help! Recently, it seems like Disney has taken a step to help clear up some confusion, too.
