food IS a theme park
The travel industry has seen its fair share of problems recently.
Have you been keeping up with the travel news?
Gas prices have fluctuated making road trips unpredictable, while short staffing, delays, and cancelations have plagued airlines leaving travelers wondering what they’re supposed to do. But now, a historic agreement between two airlines is about to make it easier for passengers to trek around (part of) the globe!
UPDATE: Orlando International Airport is currently experiencing delays due to weather. Find out more here.
Air travel can be a bit tricky right now.
Orlando International Airport
There have been thousands of delays and cancelations of flights, as well as some issues with baggage. A lot of these issues have been said to be due to staffing issues, but there’s another problem you have to think about when flying — the weather. And, an important weather update is now affecting the airport in Orlando.
Even though we’ve been around the block a few times when it comes to traveling, we’re still finding new gadgets and gizmos that are making our lives easier!

Maybe it’s waking up in the Grand Floridian and walking down Main Street, U.S.A. with your loved ones, or maybe it’s a solo trip to Disneyland for the very first time. For some, the perfect Disney vacation might not even involve the parks at all — and if you’ve been looking for the perfect excuse to book that trip to Disney’s Aulani Resort in Hawai’i, we’ve got some excellent news!
A massive Magic Kingdom expansion, a complete overhaul of DinoLand U.S.A. in Disney’s Animal Kingdom, and “Happily Ever After” returning as part of a new fireworks show — the announcements coming out of the 2022 D23 Expo were WILD.

But major announcements weren’t the only things to come out of this year’s Expo. We also saw some new merchandise collections, including ones that featured 100th Anniversary Mickey ears, Pilot Mickey, and Princess Tiana. Now, MORE D23 Expo merchandise is available online, and Amazon Prime members are in luck! [Read more…]
MagicBand+ has been all the rage in Disney World lately. The new bands are the next generation of MagicBand, and they come with some updated features, including interactions with the 50th Anniversary statues and a Bounty Hunter scavenger hunt in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. So why would you choose a normal MagicBand when these updated versions are available? There are actually a few reasons.
Get a load of all those MagicBands!
For one, regular MagicBands are usually cheaper than MagicBand+. Most MagicBand+ designs are $44.99, whereas normal MagicBands are usually around $29.99. Also, you don’t have to charge a regular MagicBand! (Although keep in mind that MagicBand+ will still function as a normal band if it’s not charged — it just won’t have the new features available.) So if you’re planning on sticking with the normal bands, you may want to take a look at 7 NEW MagicBands that Disney just released online!
