Your Disney World trip is almost here, which means there’s something we’ve gotta get right.

The Genie+ system in Disney World is changing in a BIG way soon!
New Lightning Lane changes are coming
Genie+ is the skip-the-line service in Disney World. Visitors pay for the service — which costs anywhere from $15 to $39 per day, depending on the season and demand — and can then use it to reserve Lightning Lanes throughout the day. When their reservation time arrives, they skip the standby line and use the Lightning Lane instead, which means a lower wait time.
Genie+ has been in place since 2021, and now (almost three years after its initial debut) a BUNCH of changes are coming. We’ve been learning about the new system, which will be called Lightning Lane Multi Pass, and we’ve discovered one huge PROBLEM. [Read more…]
It’s a holiday week — and you know what that means! Disney World is about to get all red, white, and blue for the 4th of July.
Sleepy Hollow
That means we’re seeing some red, white, and blue decor up in Magic Kingdom, and we’re getting ready to dive into some delicious 4th of July snacks that are well, red, white, and blue (you see where we’re going with this, right?). Well, Sleepy Hollow Refreshments in Liberty Square is appropriately serving up a red, white, and blue snack RIGHT NOW, so we’re checking it out.
Getting around Disney World using its modes of transportation might sometimes feel like it requires certification of its own. Knowing all the ins and outs of when to take the bus, the ferryboat, the monorail, or even when it’s most advantageous to call for a Minnie Van, can feel like it’s all too much to someone who’s not as well versed.

Disney Cruise Ship

Y’all. We’ve seen some things in Disney World. Sometimes they’re wonderful things, sometimes they’re terrifying things, but yeah…we’ve seen THINGS.
Kisses from Donald!
For example, you’ve got those wonderful Cast Member moments that just make your day that much more magical. Or there’s that moment when you see a character just living its best life. On the other side of things, it’s that one time you accidentally make eye contact with Caesar as you’re exiting Tower of Terror (if you know, you know) or find yourself in one of the creepiest parts of a park. Well, we’ve looked over some of our photos, and we wanted to share some of things we’ve seen that left their marks on us.
If you’ve ever tried to book a flight to Disney World, you probably know that your options change all the time. One day, a Southwest Airlines flight to Orlando Airport may be pretty inexpensive; the next day, that same flight may cost an extra $100. It’s hard to keep up!
Orlando International Airport
But that’s why we’re here to help! We keep track of the new flight routes to Disney World and monitor the airlines that halt their service to MCO. That way, you know exactly what your options are before you book your flight. While we’re on the subject, we have some important news to share about a popular budget airline. Let’s take a look.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
