Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is following through with threats against Disney World’s self-governing powers.

Disney World is no longer requiring face masks on any transportation, certain airlines have changed their mask policies, and Uber has even changed their mask requirements. And now, a major change has been made to face mask requirements at Orlando International Airport.
When Disney World reopened after the pandemic-related closures, not every aspect of the parks returned at once.
Hello from Magic Kingdom!
Disney began a phased reopening based on health guidelines that extended to parks, hotels, dining, and even entertainment. That’s why we were SO excited when Disney’s Festival of Fantasy Parade made its debut once again last month in Magic Kingdom. We quickly noticed that not every character had returned with the parade, but now it looks like that has officially changed!

Disney World has seen a lot of things change over the past couple of years due to the ongoing global pandemic.

Requirements in the parks have changed several times with relation to things like temperature screenings, physical distancing, and face masks. Many things have been returning to how they were before Disney World shut down due to COVID-19, and now, another major requirement is changing.

The marathon weekend opened reservations this morning and immediately began experiencing some technical issues. Runners were put in a waiting room or couldn’t access the site at all due to technical problems. Finally, reservations opened around 12:30PM ET and some runners were able to secure their spots. However, many of the races sold out FAST.
This might come as a surprise, but we care a lot about Disney food!
Mickey Ice Cream Bar!
We do our best to try every single new snack, treat, and meal that pops up in the Disney parks so that you can know what you HAVE TO try on your Disney World trip and what you should avoid. However, appreciating Disney food isn’t exclusive to the parks. You can make your own Disney culinary creations at home inspired by the parks and your favorite movies, and we’ve got just the books to get you started!
It’s no secret: we’re HUGE fans of Minnie Ears around here! Seriously, every time we think we’ve reached our limit, or added enough to our collection, Disney just keeps releasing MORE!
So shiny and new.
It’s also not surprising that our favorite Minnie Ears, in both Disney World and Disneyland, happen to be food-related. We are Disney FOOD Blog, after all!
It’s SO exciting when new restaurants and food spots open up at Disney World!
Dole Whip Flight
Just in the past year, we’ve seen a new steakhouse open up, a new space restaurant open in EPCOT, a new food truck roll into town, and even a new Dole Whip stand open in Disney Springs. A NEW ice cream spot is opening soon in Disney Springs as well, and you can actually get FREE ice cream during the grand opening!
