When you’re watching your favorite show, don’t you just wish there was a way to share your favorite scenes?

Honestly, we’d just share the scene in Agatha All Along where the witches sing “The Witches’ Road” a million times. Or maybe we’d love to share the scene in Inside Out 2 when Anxiety goes spinning out of control (same, Anxiety, same). Maybe we just want to highlight our favorite moments from Wizards of Waverly Place (yes, yes, we do). Imagine if that were possible. Well, Netflix has figured out how to let users share scenes…and we need Disney+ to do the same.
UPDATED November 20, 2024
Disney World is CHANGING in 2025. We’re talking BIG changes. First, we’re going to start seeing construction soon in Magic Kingdom for the Cars expansion and the new Villains land.
Grand Floridian Resort
Then we’re going to see the debut of a new Zootopia show in Animal Kingdom, as well as a new Villains show in Hollywood Studios. Oh, then there’s a new nighttime parade coming to Magic Kingdom, too. Test Track will reopen with a brand new look and feel! However, these changes aren’t just happening in the parks. Disney World hotels are changing, too.
The SHOW must go on!
Magic Kingdom
Terrible changes are on the horizon for Disney World next year — but we’re gonna make sure your trip still happens without a hitch!
Are you ready for a BIG DAY in Disney World?!
Magic Kingdom
Today, October 30th, Disney is officially launching its new Lightning Lane Premier Pass service over in Disney World, and we’re here to try it out. Last week, it launched in Disneyland, and we checked it out, but now it’s time to find out if this new offering for skipping the long lines on the East Coast is worth the cost. Let’s go!
It is finally here! Lightning Lane Premier Pass has debuted at Disney World!

Lightning Lane Premier Pass is Disney World’s new Lightning Lane option that is available for guests of Deluxe Resorts and other select hotels. This new version of Disney’s pay-to-skip-the-line system allows you to access every single Lightning Lane within a park one time. The biggest perk of this new Lightning Lane option is that you do not need to make any ride selections, just simply show up to any attraction with a Lightning Lane at anytime! If you are interested in trying out this new system we made a step-by-step guide for you to follow along with!
Alright Disney, let’s have a little chat.

It appears that Disney+ is on the up and up financially after finally becoming profitable, but that doesn’t mean all is well with the streaming platform. Disney recently raised subscription prices and has been cracking down on password sharing, upsetting many of its users. However, Disney maximizing profits is not a new phenomenon. Instead, the issue that needs discussing is Disney+’s content quality problem.
Lightning Lane Premier Pass debuts in Disney World on October 30th.
Cinderella Castle
Disney introduced Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Lightning Lane Single Pass on July 24th, 2024. Multi Pass is an optional, paid service that allows you to book reservations to “skip the line” at many rides throughout Disney World. Single Pass is another optional, paid service reserved for Disney World’s most popular rides, and allows you to book a reservation to ride one of those uber popular rides (like Rise of the Resistance or Flight of Passage). Now comes Lightning Lane Premier Pass — a premium, paid service that starts October 30th. And now, we know what pricing looks like for this top tier of Lightning Lane passes!
It’s about to get easier to fly to Disney World!
Let’s fly!
We’re always keeping up with the latest travel news and tips, especially when it comes to flying to Orlando and Disney World! If you plan on flying out this way soon — you’re in luck! Your options are about to increase as United Airlines just announced that the airline will be adding flights at the Orlando International Airport (MCO).
If you weren’t planning on visiting Disney Springs in the next couple of weeks, this news may change your mind!
Disney Springs
Several of our favorite restaurants can be found at Disney Springs in Disney World, including Chef Art Smith’s Homecomin’! We’re always looking for a reason to visit and super thankful when the restaurant gives us one — like they have with their announcement that a seasonal item is now available on the menu!
