food IS a theme park
We’re getting hyped for the holiday season in Disney World!
EPCOT Christmas Tree
As we inch toward the end of the year, Disney World is getting prepped for the holidays, and this year, some big events are returning. We can’t wait to party all night again at Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party and Jollywood Nights, and of course, we’ll be spending some days at the EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays. If you’re planning to visit the festival this year, we’ve got a WARNING for you!
Unless you’re some kind of packing wizard, there’s a good chance you will forget something on vacation. Maybe you left behind your phone charger or your sunglasses. Perhaps you misplaced your MagicBands. It happens to us all! The good news is that there are plenty of ways to solve this kind of problem, so let’s talk about it!

Let’s say you forgot your rain gear, and your vacation is turning out to be rainy. Sure, you can always head to Amazon and have ponchos sent to your hotel. But if you’re looking for a quick and easy fix, we know about a SECRET spot in Disney World that will totally hook you up.
These days, it’s not cheap to stream your favorite movies and shows on TV! In fact, Disney+ just announced a new round of price increases that go into effect on October 17th. The good news is that you’ve got plenty of new movies and shows to look forward to — Disney just released a full list of the new content dropping on Disney+ this November.
Disney+
From holiday shorts to a Mary Poppins Special, there’s a lot to add to your watchlist this November. Let’s see what’s new!
We can’t imagine life without Disney+, although the streaming service has only been around since 2019.

However, with it being spooky season, we’ve been watching some of our favorite Halloween movies on the service, including Hocus Pocus, Halloweentown, and more! And now that Disney+ and Hulu can be combined with one service, it’s even better. Now, you might have previously seen that Disney+ subscribers are facing a price increase, and Disney is sending out emails with more details.

When anyone ever asks me who my favorite CEO in the history of the Walt Disney Company is, I immediately go to Michael Eisner. Sure, he helped usher in the renaissance of Disney entertainment and pushed the parks forward, especially with his leadership amid the Disneyland Resort expansion, but as a kid growing up just minutes from Anaheim, he did so much more. Eisner had Disney dive into the sports sphere and, through several sports films and actual ownership of Anaheim sports franchises, Disney not only won over the hearts of kids from the Anaheim area but millennials all over the globe. While those days may be history, one Anaheim team is bringing the 90s into the 21st Century.
Before the weekend comes, let’s have a chat about saving on Disney merch!
Disney Merch
We’re trying to make sure that you get the best deals on Disney merch possible, so we’ve rounded up the best ones we’ve seen on the Disney Store online. So, let’s not waste another minute and check them out!
If you’re planning a trip to Disneyland Resort, you probably want to know all about the available skip-the-line options.
Disneyland
Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Lightning Lane Single Pass are paid offerings that allow you to skip the line at select attractions during scheduled time windows. However, some people don’t like having to select their Lightning Lane return times through the Disneyland app. If you fall in that camp, you may be interested in using the newest offering — Lightning Lane Premier Pass.
Disney dropped some massive news this week, but the biggest might have been concerning the new Lightning Lane Premier Pass.
Lightning Lane
The Lightning Lane Premier Pass will be a separate offering from the existing Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Lightning Lane Single Pass. Like those passes, though, the new Premier Pass will allow Disney World visitors to skip the standby lines at rides and get access to those rides’ Lightning Lanes, which will have shorter waits. If you’re considering purchasing Lightning Lane Premier Pass, we’re going to break down the easiest way to use it.
Deciding what to wear to Disney World is HARD, friends, we get it. We’ve been there!
Spaceship Earth
We keep an eye on all the latest trends to see what fellow guests are wearing to the parks, and what may or may not be a good fit for your next trip. Not to mention that we keep our eyes peeled for all the latest deals online to make sure you’re getting the essentials at the best price possible. Which means that we’ve just come across this new potential trend starting up, and we’re telling you now that these are NOT the shoes for any Disney World park.
Well, if nothing else, Disney sure knows how to keep us on our toes!
Peter Pan’s Flight Lightning Lane
As I’m sure you remember, earlier this year we saw both Disney World and Disneyland do away with the Genie+ skip-the-line system and introduce Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Single Pass. But like I was saying, just when we really got the hang of this new system, Disney went ahead and introduced a whole new pass — Lightning Lane Premier Pass. After we recovered from the shock, we had a moment to check out the details and that’s when we noticed that this brand-new pass isn’t even out yet and there’s already one big problem with it!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
