Spaceship Earth
If you’ve been waiting for character meet and greets to come back to Disney World, you’re in luck! One fan-favorite entertainment spot is opening once again, and the Star Wars Hotel just got even more expensive. PLUS we’ve got the scoop on how much it will cost to ride Rise of the Resistance with Disney Genie+ AND when you can start using it!

It is a destination meant to leave us relaxed, invigorated, and an escape from the pressure of the everyday. But, as we know, it can also be a little stressful at times!

Usually, this ride uses a Virtual Queue for its line, assigning spots in line with a lottery system and then calling guests over to enjoy the ride when it’s their turn. Today, Disney made a slight change to the Virtual Queue description for the attraction on their website.
This past week was HUGE in the realm of Disney news!
It was a big week!
