It’s Fall in Disney World!
From Disney announcing the retirement of FastPass+ to the Disney Genie news, we’re here to go over all the unexpected surprises in Disney World news this week.
Disney World is constantly in a state of change, and Disney World Resort hotels are no exception.
Disney’s Contemporary Resort
Disney’s Contemporary Resort hotel is undergoing some major construction as Disney gives Contemporary rooms a makeover based on The Incredibles.

Unexpected things do happen on vacations, and this week the center of a few mishaps has been at the airports.
Orlando International Airport

In light of the CDC’s new mask recommendations, as well as the rise of the COVID-19 delta variant, Disney World has adopted a new mask policy. And with much of the world resuming past activities, Broadway announced their new COVID-19 policies for shows just days before resuming performances after more than 16 months.
Disney World is still phasing out a lot of their previous health and safety guidelines, and we’re seeing more and more attractions and pre-shows return.

This week we saw Disney announce return dates for several attractions, closing dates for two shows, and a surprise reopening. Shall we review?
