Iger announced $5.5 billion in spending cuts, which included plans for over 7,000 job cuts throughout the company. We’ve already seen a few rounds of these cuts happen, but recently another 75 job cuts have been made–and this time some major Pixar executives were affected.
Who’s ready for Christmas and the holiday season?!
Hollywood Studios Christmas tree
Okay, yeah, maybe we’re a little premature here. But Disney is already gearing up for Halloween (the celebrations start in August), and then once that ends, it’ll be time to kick off the holiday season in November. And next week, Disney is celebrating Halfway to the Holidays with a bunch of special treats!
In our many years spent at Disney World, we’ve probably checked out THOUSANDS of souvenirs.
Main Street Cinema
From Minnie ears to Spirit Jerseys to Starbucks tumblers, we’ve seen our fair share of new merchandise in the parks. And usually, when we spot a new item, we like to share it with our readers so you know what’ll be available for shopping on your next trip. But not today! Today, we’re sharing with you a really OLD item we found…one so old that it’ll be giving you some serious throwback memories!
In the past, the possibilities were endless. You could wake up on a random, sunny Saturday, hop in the car, and purchase a Disney World ticket. Then, you could stroll into whatever park you wanted.
You could just randomly head to Disney World!
Yep, back in the good ol’ days you could actually be spontaneous when it came to Disney World visits. Since COVID-19 ruined a lot of fun things for a while back in 2020, Disney had to come up with a way to limit the amount of guests in each park for social distancing reasons once the parks reopened. Thus, the Park Pass Reservation System was born. Except… it never went away once COVID-19 restrictions were listed. Why is this system still a thing? How can visitors work their way around it? Today, we’re going to talk about it.
Finding the perfect park bag for your Disney World trip isn’t easy — you want it to be comfortable, large enough to hold the necessities without being too big and heavy, and of course, it has to be cute.

If you’re hoping to get to Disney Springs for some shopping and dining in the upcoming days, there’s a situation happening there that could impact your plans.
Disney Springs
You might be familiar with how to get to Disney Springs via your own car (and park in the designated parking lots) or via the Disney World buses. Select hotels also typically offer boat transportation to Disney Springs — a special perk! But, that perk isn’t so great when it’s not available…
When the sun goes down and the signs around Main Street, U.S.A. light up, the Magic Kingdom transforms as guests prepare for the Happily Ever After nighttime spectacular. The show is extremely popular, so if you plan to watch it on Main Street, be prepared to stand in a huge crowd.
