Let’s Chat About This Uncomfortable Disney World Hotel Problem

By Brian Delpozo 3 Comments

As much as we love staying on Disney property, the experience isn’t perfect!

Polynesian

Since Disney opened up their first true hotels with Walt Disney World’s Contemporary and Polynesian Village in 1971 — The Disneyland Hotel does technically predate them, but has a twisting backstory that involves not being owned by Disney until the mid-1980s — staying on Disney property has become an integral part of Disney vacation experience for millions at each of the company’s resorts around the world. However, just because these hotels allow guests to remain in the “Disney bubble” for the duration of their vacation, it doesn’t mean staying at them is all sunshine and rainbows. [Read more…]

Southwest Airlines Is “Looking Into New Initiatives” for Its Controversial Seating Policy

By Robin Burks 3 Comments

We know a lot of our DFB readers are big fans of Southwest Airlines.

Southwest Airlines at the Orlando Airport

The airline offers a LOT of nonstop flights to Orlando International Airport, after all, and that gets us to Disney World faster, right? You can also occasionally get some really good deals on airfare from Southwest, too. Plus who doesn’t love the whole “two free checked bags” policy that really makes Southwest stand out from the competition? However, Southwest’s boarding process has proved to be controversial — but that process could be changing SOON.

An Alarming New Travel Trend Is Becoming a Problem at Disney World

By Madeleine Zaharchuk Leave a Comment

When you write about vacations for a living, you hear a lot of travel buzzwords. Remember the “revenge travel” era after the pandemic? Well, these days, the hot new topic seems to be “excessive tourism.” Are things getting out of hand?

The Thing Everyone Hates the Most About Disney World Is Actually There on Purpose

By Jasmine Kocon 2 Comments

You know Disney World is probably our favorite place on Earth. It is the Most Magical, after all.

Cinderella Castle

When we step into the parks, we feel like we’re home. Now, it’s no accident that Disney has created the parks so perfectly that they make us feel that way. As much as we want to truly believe it’s all in the magic (which we’re convinced is real), it is also very much in the marketing. Disney doesn’t do anything on accident. The Imagineers, officials, and even Cast Members design the parks to be exactly what we want and need them to be so we feel at home (and spend all our money). But have you ever considered that one of our LEAST favorite parts of the parks is actually there completely on purpose?
