food IS a theme park
Disney World is making A LOT of changes, and it’s not only in their theme parks or resorts — but they’re also making changes to the My Disney Experience app, too!

These changes can actually affect how you ride the attractions in the theme park! Are these changes people actually wanted? Let’s just say…no.
You didn’t forget about these attraction changes coming to Magic Kingdom, did you?
Carousel of Progress
The Carousel of Progress at Disney World is getting an update, including an introductory scene featuring Walt Disney himself. Disney has finally released new details about the ride that will include the 1960s, 1980s, the new millennium, and a possible future. They also released a new poster for the ride, and we can’t wait to see it for ourselves.
Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run at both Hollywood Studios and Disneyland is getting some major upgrades starting today. The ride will get multiple new destinations inspired by classic Star Wars films and the brand-new The Mandalorian & Grogu movie!
Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run
In the updated version of the ride, you’ll tag along with Mando and Grogu for their bounty hunt, and for the first time ever, you can choose where you go.

Tattooine
We thought the role of an engineer was pretty boring – you just sit there and press a few buttons; it’s nowhere near as immersive as pilot or gunner. We just rode the new version of Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run early, and now we can say the engineer role is our new favorite spot!
Disney’s been on a roll lately with announcing loads of ride changes and refurbishments on the way. While many Disney guests enjoy these announcements and look forward to the new updates, that sentiment isn’t shared by all. Hey, we get it! While we’re usually excited about something new, that doesn’t mean we aren’t sad about what we’re losing.
Soarin’ Around the World
One of Disney’s most recent announcements was that the current version of Soarin’ in both Disney World and Disneyland will be replaced with a new version of the ride called Soarin’ Across America. This new version will fly you over iconic sights all around the United States, instead of all over the world like the current edition does. While some fans are looking forward to this, we can’t ignore the fact that some others are bringing up a really good point — will this new version be as beloved as its predecessor?
