food IS a theme park
A recent legal ruling stopped the buyout of Spirit Airlines by JetBlue Airways.
Airlines are a hot topic!
While the judge has prevented the merger of Spirit and JetBlue for the time being, the future of low-cost fares for passengers and the fate of small airports that rely heavily on the budget airline could be in trouble if the ruling gets overturned. [Read more…]
Isn’t it interesting how a bag can either make or break your trip to Disney World?
Magic Kingdom
Your bag can be your best friend that carries your most needed necessities into the park with you. Even if you aren’t planning on carrying too much with you, that bag can also be a great addition to your outfit.
Do yourself a favor before you rush out to the store or make that next impulse purchase and hear us out!

If you’re flying to or from Orlando for the first time (or the first time in a while), the experience can be stressful to say the least.
Orlando International Airport
With airport construction, more arriving and departing flights, and LOTS of people, navigating the airport and your travel experience can be overwhelming if you aren’t prepared. Luckily for you, we travel to Disney World all the time and are in the Orlando International Airport (MCO) probably more often than we’d like to admit.
Even if you’re the kind of person who simply uses their hotel room for sleeping and wants to spend as much time as possible in the parks, it’s still important to put some thought into which resort you choose to book.

Not only does the price vary, but your entire experience will be different depending on where you choose. That’s why we suggest doing a bit of research to compare your options and help you pick the best resort possible for you and your family!
If you are flying to Disney World, chances are you will land at Orlando International Airport. While it’s a popular choice because of how many other cities it connects to, it isn’t quite within walking distance of Disney World (in fact, it’s a decent drive to get to the parks).

With the loss of the free Magical Express and the average price for an Uber to Disney World ranging from $40 to $80 or more, many guests opt for cheaper alternatives. One such option is the Sunshine Flyer and right now they’re making it even more affordable to get to Disney World!
There’s a rumor that Disney World is covered by a giant dome that allows the company to control the weather.

While that would make running the park a WHOLE lot easier, it just isn’t true. Orlando is subject to all sorts of bad weather, from hurricanes and torrential downpours to brutal heat (which you may not be surprised by). What may surprise you is that it actually DOES get cold, too! Knowing what the weather will be like ahead of your trip can help you plan accordingly and avoid any discomfort.
The Orlando International Airport is the main airport that many guests flying to Disney World will use, so when something goes wrong it can really throw a wrench in everyone’s plans.
Orlando Airport
Right now, plenty of people heading to Orlando have hit a speedbump with their travels due to “technical issues at the Federal Aviation Administration’s Miami Center.”
Orlando International Airport is the largest airport near Disney World and is where most guests tend to fly into.

The travel hub is expanding its services with a new Brightline train terminal that will connect the airport to destinations in South Florida like Fort Lauderdale and Miami. In addition, Orlando International (or MCO) is bringing on additional nonstop routes!
Have you ever been in the middle of a long park day, only to realize you’re in need of a basic you don’t have? Even the lack of something small, like pain reliever or a poncho, can put a damper on your trip.
Magic Kingdom
Instead of paying park prices for these basics just bring your own in a park bag! Even those who usually prefer to pack light should bring some sort of bag with them to carry a few necessities with them.
