After a recent wave of layoffs of about 300 employees at the Walt Disney Company, Disney is looking to lay off even more employees.
The Walt Disney Company
The most recent round of layoffs within the company’s corporate operations included individuals in legal, HR, finance, and communications. At the time, no employees part of Parks, ESPN, or Disney Entertainment were laid off. However, approximately 75 individuals within a different department were just notified of a reduction of staff.
As professional Disney World fans, we’re always on the lookout for the latest and greatest Disney park essentials to bring along with us.
We love popcorn!

It is hard to believe, but 2024 is coming to an end, which means The Walt Disney Company still has one more financial quarter to discuss.

In August, The Walt Disney Company held its third-quarter earnings call. During this call, Disney revealed that the price for Disney+ would go up and their big plans for ESPN. Also during this call they also discussed that attendance in the parks was down, but they were confident that attendance would soon rise as they plan to add more IP (intellectual property) throughout the parks. This proved to be the case, during D23 almost every project announced for Disney World revolved around an IP. We now know the date for the final earnings call of the year.
The best gifts from EPCOT.
What a fun way to end the night!
Since EPCOT opened some 42 years ago, the park — Walt Disney World’s second gate — has been a fan favorite. Due to this love affair, many guests want to bring home souvenirs and keepsakes for themselves or their loved ones. So, what are the best options to pick up from EPCOT? Well, there are several, and they’re also available online!
In a little over a month, Disney will switch gears from spooky season to the festive holidays!
Jollywood Nights 2024 — ©Disney
That means we’ll go from pumpkins to Christmas trees all around the parks and hotels. Disney has two special holiday events — Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party at Magic Kingdom and Jollywood Nights at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Jollywood Nights was a new event in 2023, and it is returning this year with even more new entertainment and merchandise. We wish we didn’t have to wait until November to enjoy this holiday party. But luckily, we got an early sneak peek!
On park days, we match!

Flying to Disney World is about to get even easier for millions.
Frontier Airlines
Thanks to massive tourist destinations like Walt Disney World and the Universal Orlando Resort, Orlando is one of the busiest travel destinations in the world, with millions passing through the area’s airports — mainly Orlando International Airport (MCO) — each year. Now, two of the U.S.’s busiest budget airlines are adding NEW routes into the city.

Sure, you probably know about all the great original TV shows you can watch, including Agatha All Along, which premiered recently (and just in time for witchy season). You might also know about Inside Out 2, which recently came to the streaming platform. Maybe you’re just busy watching classic Disney movies on the service or your kids are watching Bluey. Well, there’s a NEW feature on Disney+ available now that you might not know about.
Over the past few months, there have been a LOT of announcements about what we’ll see coming to Disney World in the coming years.
Magic Kingdom
We know that a new Villains land is coming in the area behind Big Thunder Mountain Railroad and that a new Cars-themed land is coming to Frontierland (replacing Tom Sawyer Island and the Liberty Square Riverboat), a new Villains show is replacing Lightning McQueen’s Racing Academy in Disney’s Hollywood Studios and the park is also getting a whole new Monsters Inc. land, DinoLand U.S.A. is officially becoming the Tropical Americas, and so much more. And don’t get us wrong, all of that is exciting, but there’s something coming that NO ONE is talking about and we need to change that — did all of us forget that we’re getting a new nighttime parade?!
