January Prices CONFIRMED for Disney World’s Lightning Lane System

By 4 Comments

Updated as of December 24th, 2024

Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Lightning Lane Single Pass premiered in 2024, replacing the previous Genie+ skip-the-line system.

Lightning Lane

This new paid service allows you to skip the long standby lines at rides and use the shorter Lightning Lanes instead. Now, we’ve tried this service out over and over to get you all the best tips and tricks on how to use it. Also, in case you didn’t know, you can purchase it IN ADVANCE of your Disney World trip. So that means we get a good idea of what prices are going to be in the future. So let’s take a look at the Lightning Lane prices in January 2025.

By 7 Comments

Disney World has a lot of changes coming in 2025, and sometimes it’s hard to keep track of them all.

TriceraTop Spin

Thankfully, we’re here to keep track of them for you to hopefully help lower the confusion around this upcoming year. There are lots of construction projects going on in all four Disney World parks, but some of them mean that certain rides are shutting down for good. If you’re visiting the parks soon, be sure to take one last ride on these before they go away!

2024 is quickly coming to an end before our eyes.

Magic Kingdom

It might come as a shock, but we are already nearly halfway through December. In less than a month, we’ll be counting down to the new year and trying to remember to write 2025 instead of 2024 on anything we’re adding a date to. As we look toward 2025 and the new year of possibilities, it’s also fun to look behind us and reflect on all the good, exciting, and happy things that have passed in 2024. This was an eventful year in the world of Disney, and we want to celebrate some of the best things that happened. So come along with us as we remember all the great announcements, changes, endings, and beginnings for Disney and Disney fans in 2024!

Disney World Wants to Save Your Life…Figuratively and Literally

By Leave a Comment

Disney World is certainly an extremely magical place, but there’s also the fact that no matter how magical it is, negative things can still happen.

Disney World Monorail

Many times, that comes in the form of sickness or injury while you’re on vacation. We know that’s not fun for anyone involved, and it can really put a damper on your vacation, but things happen, and it’s important you know how to deal with them BEFORE you get to Disney World. Thankfully, Disney World now has many different offerings in place that make getting medical help a breeze.

The NEW Problem That’s Suddenly Plaguing Millennials in Disney World

By 8 Comments

If there’s one thing that’s true about Disney World, it’s that it’s always changing.

Big Thunder Mountain Railroad

However, we’re also always changing with it. Our snack preferences change, our tolerance for extreme heat may be getting lower, and, of course, we get older year after year. We’ve found that a lot of the members of our team have really started to notice this as they visit the parks in recent years because a lot of our team is made up of Millennials. As much as it pains us to admit, we’ve started to run into a nearly irreversible problem in the parks.

Disney Confirmed 3 BIG Additions for Hollywood Studios’ Monsters, Inc. Land

By Leave a Comment

A lot’s happening at Disney World, but what’s coming to Disney’s Hollywood Studios is a straight up TON!

Disney’s Hollywood Studios

There is a new Little Mermaid show and new Villains show coming to the park. The Muppets are leaving Muppets Courtyard in favor of re-theming Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster, and Monster’s, Inc. Land is setting up shop in that vacated area. Speaking of Monsters, Inc., since Disney has a habit of trying to be sneaky with their concept art, we thought we’d have ourselves a little looksie and see what they’ve confirmed for the new land without explicitly saying so!

December is already flying by and we’re so not ready for the holidays yet (although we’ve been celebrating the holiday season in Disney World for over a month now!).

Meanwhile, Disney World restaurant menus keep changing, and we’re keeping up with them all!

Despite a 33% Average Wait Time DECREASE, This Ride Was STILL the Most Popular in Disney World

By 2 Comments

Every week, we report the average Disney World wait times in every park so that you can be prepared for your next trip to Orlando!

Magic Kingdom

Disney World’s average wait times were mostly stable this week, with a couple of exceptions. Rise of the Resistance dropped from its Thanksgiving-week-high, but it was still the busiest ride in Disney World.

Hello, Hollywood! We’re here to soak in the glitz and glamour of the holidays. Oh, and Tinsel Town is EXTRA sparkly today. Why? We’re celebrating DAPPER DAY at Disney’s Hollywood Studios!

The holidays at Disney’s Hollywood Studios

OK, so what is Dapper Day? Technically, it should be Dapper Days, since this event takes place a couple of times a year on both coasts. It’s a free (and not Disney-sponsored) event where you can dress up in vintage outfits, chic dresses, or any kind of dapper look. The point is to have fun and get creative (and boy did people deliver today!).
