Do you keep updated on everything going on in Disney World? Because there is a LOT going on right now.
Main Street Railroad Station
Two new restaurants are under construction at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn. The Canada Pavilion currently has some construction happening in EPCOT. A huge Magic Kingdom expansion is on the way. At some point, DinoLand, U.S.A. in Disney’s Animal Kingdom is getting a re-theme. And that’s just the stuff Disney has announced so far! Of course, the Disney World website does its best to keep you updated, and right now, there are three warnings you might notice.
Disney’s Pop Century Resort
The first warning we’re seeing on the Disney World website is on the page for Disney’s Pop Century Resort. The page for the hotel announces that the Everything Pop Food Court will be undergoing refurbishment from July 29th through September 29th. It also states that the food court will remain open, but that guests at Pop Century will need to use Mobile Order on the My Disney Experience app to order food and drinks.

There’s also a sentence about guests possibly needing to use alternate entrances to the food court and how seating may be limited.

Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort
If you look up Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort on Disney World’s website and then click on the “Recreation” tab, you’ll see a new warning message on that page, too. The warning informs guests that the Barbados leisure pool will be closed from July 29th through September 2024.

However, guests staying at the hotel are free to use the four other leisure pools at the resort, as well as the Fuentes del Morro feature pool.

Upgrade your app
One of the most recent announcements we noticed was on the My Disney Experience app. We received a message on our iPhone that to take advantage of the new Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Lightning Lane Single Pass(which has since gone into effect), we would need to upgrade the app.

This is a very important reminder if your app hasn’t been updated recently and you’re visiting Disney World soon. If you plan on purchasing Multi Pass or Single Pass, you will need the most recent version of the app.

Too bad if you have a slightly older phone – you can’t update the app. you need a higher operating system and therefore cannot use the new lightning lane. Hmmm
