food IS a theme park
We’re soaring, flying!
Southwest Airlines
Southwest Airlines just dropped a new promotion that makes us want to hop on a flight right now. We don’t even care where we’re going because the deal is just THAT good.
Okay, Disney adults, we know we’re all here because we love Disney and Disney World. At the same time, though, we do often have some complaints about visiting Disney World, and that’s okay — it’s allowed.
Disney World Annual Pass
Sometimes, people just don’t want to deal with all the crowds. Of course, everyone complains about prices when they go up (and they do). Others complain about rides getting changes. However, fans have one huge beef with Disney World that we need to talk about: it’s about Annual Passes for folks outside of Florida. So let’s have a chat about it.
Toy Story fans should be running to Amazon right now for the iconic Pixar film’s 30th Anniversary!

Heads up if you’re flying in or out of the Orlando International Airport (MCO).
Orlando International Airport
Orlando Airport is currently on a complete ground stop.
If you’re flying through Orlando International Airport (MCO) in 2025, you’re in for some very welcome airport security changes.
MCO Airport Security
It’s been a big year for air travel. The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has implemented some new protocols to make traveling a bit easier, and has even removed one longtime rule that has undoubtedly been a bother. If you plan to travel to and from Orlando International Airport throughout the remainder of the year, here is a reminder of the changes.

Universal may have just picked out the name of its new park planned for the United Kingdom. Let’s take a look at the details!
Disney World is in the process of some BIG changes, and this one has Disney fans happy.
Disney World
At Magic Kingdom, we are seeing huge transformations. Construction is underway for the new Cars-themed area, Piston Peak, and the new Villains land. Several rides are currently under refurbishment, including Big Thunder Mountain and Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger Spin. At Destination D23, we also got news that one of the most iconic pieces of this park will be seeing some updates in the future, and it has Disney fans talking about it!
UPDATE: Disneyland has confirmed that the Mermaid float in Disney’s Paint the Night Parade experienced a power issue, according to Scott Gustin. While the float was being towed, smoke was seen due to a complication with the brakes. No fire was reported by Disneyland.
On September 10th, there were reports that one of the parade floats at Disneyland was spotted being surrounded by smoke, with reports online saying there was a fire.
Paint the Night
Videos on TikTok have been surfacing of The Little Mermaid float having smoke around it and guests being evacuated from the areas.
Phones have become an essential part of the Disney World experience, far beyond snapping photos and videos.
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
Guests rely on them to check wait times, book Lightning Lane access, and even place mobile orders for food, making the park experience more convenient than ever. With so much of the day-to-day magic now happening through a screen, it’s no surprise that phone use on rides has become a hot topic among fans. Capturing memories mid-attraction is just one more way guests are integrating technology into their Disney adventures, but not everyone agrees it should be allowed.
