These ladies and gentlemen keep snail mail alive and well by enduring rain, snow, brutally hot, and brutally cold weather. Let’s focus on summer. The mail vehicles often don’t have air conditioning, and the only respite they get from the heat is… well, they don’t get respite. They’re in the heat all day long, day after day.

The Disney Dining Plan (DDP) will return on January 9th, 2024, for those staying at Disney World hotels. Not only this, but Park Pass Reservations will no longer be required for most guests after this date. We expect these two things to make snagging reservations at fan-favorite dining locations harder. For most popular restaurants across Disney World property, Disney requires Advanced Dining Reservations (ADRs), which can be made up to 60 days in advance of your visit. Some of these restaurants will SERIOUSLY require you to wake up at 6AM on the 60-day mark to select your dining locations, or else your chances of grabbing a reservation are slim to none. If you’re wondering which restaurants you should be on your A-game in order to grab, then keep reading.
