food IS a theme park
If you’re flying through Orlando International Airport during what could be a busy time of the year, there’s a BIG problem you need to be aware of.
Orlando International Airport
You might already be prepared for flight delays and cancelations, lost luggage, or long security lines, but have you thought about the parking situation? If not, you need to!
Did you know that Disney World hotels have their own set of rules?

For example, if you’re bringing your pet to Disney World, there are only a few specific hotels where they can stay with you. Before you visit, you’ll want to know about the hotel rules where you’re staying! And that includes this seasonal transportation restriction. [Read more…]
There is a TON of stuff you can do on Disneyland Resort’s mobile app.
Disneyland
You can mobile order food, make Lightning Lane reservations through Genie+, check wait times, see park hours, and so much more. And, Disney is adding even more to the app to help you make your trip even better. A NEW feature is coming soon that will make losing your car in Disneyland a thing of the past.
Have you ever lost your car in a Disney parking lot? Well, that problem could soon be a thing of the past!
Dude, where’s our car?
Listen, it’s happened to the best of us — you’ve been in the theme parks for 12 hours, your feet hurt, you’re exhausted, and you just want to go home or back to your hotel for the night…but you can’t find your car. It’s kind of easy to forget where your car is parked because the Disney parking lots are HUGE (seriously, there are trams that take you around!). But, it’s about to get easier to remember where your car is thanks to a new feature!
Disney World is good at MANY things! From the fine details to the nostalgia, and the thrills to the animation, is there ANYTHING they can’t do?!

Oh, and let’s not forget about that almost trance-like influence they have over us in getting guests to spend MORE money? Genius!
Disney World’s reopening has been a long process, with things slowly returning to normal over the course of the past two years.
Disney’s Animal Kingdom
We’ve seen dozens of restaurant reopenings, the return of many entertainment options, and some offerings that weren’t available when the parks first reopened are back now. Now, we’ve got an update on when one beloved perk may return!
One of the most common questions that people ask about Disney World is how they can beat the crowds and get on their favorite rides without a long wait.
Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway
There are a couple of different options, including making use of the Lightning Lanes with Genie+ and Pay-Per-Ride. But if you’d rather not pay to skip the lines, another option is to get to the parks as early as possible. If you’re staying at a Disney World hotel, you qualify for Early Theme Park Entry, which means you can go into the Disney World theme parks before the other guests. So what exactly is Early Entry? And how should you spend your extra time in the parks? We’re answering all your Early Entry questions here. Let’s dive in! [Read more…]
Races at Disney World through runDisney have returned in the past year, but that doesn’t mean changes to the races can’t still happen.
2022 Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend Dopey Challenge Medals
We saw some awesome runners during the Disney Wine & Dine Half Marathon Weekend, as well as during the recent Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend in January. The next race weekend coming up is the Disney Princess Half Marathon Weekend from February 24th through the 27th, and there has been a recent change that runners need to know about!
Let’s just say that we’ve been to Disney World more than a “few” times. 😉
We’ve definitely been to the parks more than a few times.
We pretty much consider ourselves theme park experts at this point, and if you’ve reached that milestone as well, then we may have some things in common. There are quite a few Disney-centric habits we’ve picked up over our years of visiting the theme parks, and sometimes they carry over into the real world!
2021 has been a BIG year in Disney World, with lots of major changes.
Magic Kingdom
In addition to changing Disney World Annual Passes, Disney has also discontinued or altered many previously “free” perks, like complimentary MagicBands for Disney World Resort hotel guests and Annual Passholders, as well as replacing Extra Magic Hours with the shorter Early Theme Park Entry and the more selective Extended Evening Hours. And now perhaps one of the BIGGEST free Disney World perks will be gone in a few short weeks, and here’s what you need to know.
