And we’re not even talking about the increased capacity, new health and safety policies, or new mask policies. The latest update we’ve got for you right now concerns a Disney World ride!
As much as we love Disney World, not everything that they try to pull off in the parks is a slam dunk.
Some things don’t go over as great as Disney hoped they would.
We’ve seen some interesting ride ideas, some weird snacks, and a ton of things that just made us scratch our heads (Donald Duck being replaced by a hat-wearing plant, anyone?). Today we’re breaking down the times that Disney World tried to do something interesting and it didn’t go quite as planned. Hey, we’re still giving them an ‘A’ for effort!
We’re blazin’ right on through spring!

Yep, another month has FLOWN by just like that and we’ve seen a LOT of serious news from Disney World. Some of that news was downright SHOCKING, too. Here are the three most unexpected things that happened in Disney World last month!Â
One thing that’s pretty much inevitable when traveling to Walt Disney World…you’re going to have to wait in line!
Let’s go to Disney World!
There are lines for rides, shows, shops, restaurants, and everything in-between in the popular theme parks. However, if you’re paying for a trip, it makes sense that you want to make the MOST of your time and not spend ALL of it waiting in line! Recently, we reached out to our readers to find out what they think about waiting in line, and it inspired us to share some of our tips on how to avoid the wait!
Although it may not be the most thrilling ride at Disney World, the Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover is a serious fan favorite! So you can imagine everyone’s worry and fear when this leisurely trip around Tomorrowland didn’t reopen with the park last summer. Since then, we watched in agony as its closure was extended again and again (and again, and again).
PeopleMover
To be honest, there was a time when we thought the PeopleMover was completely DOOMED, destined to follow in the footsteps of its west coast counterpart. But thanks to an announcement from the President of Walt Disney World, Jeff Vahle, we finally learned that the PeopleMover WOULD be moving people once again! And that day is today, friends.
It’s been well…a YEAR for everyone, but especially for Disney World’s PeopleMover. The Magic Kingdom attraction closed over a year ago and we’re still waiting for it to reopen.
Patiently waiting…
The reopening was delayed, then delayed again, and then delayed AGAIN. But earlier this week, Disney announced that the ride would be up and running “late this weekend.”
Oh, PeopleMover…how we’ve missed you.
Soon!
The PeopleMover in Magic Kingdom has been closed for over a year now, and we’ve been (not so) patiently waiting for one of our favorite rides at Disney World to reopen. And the reopening has been delayed over…and over…and over again. We were starting to think the PeopleMover was DOOMED.
When you visit Disney World, you may hear a LOT of phrases that you don’t understand!
What is a refurbishment? You’re about to find out!
Disney fans use jargon that is completely unique to the parks, filled with acronyms and fancy words that don’t mean anything to the outsider or the first-time guest. As you become more acquainted with the parks, you’ll start to learn more about “Disney speak,” but today we’re giving you a crash course!
Disneyland has announced a lot of details about the reopening of the theme parks.

We know a lot more about the return of ticket sales, dining, and attractions. Now, we’ve got a full list of the attractions coming to Disneyland Resort. Several attractions WON’T be reopening with the parks — and one, in particular, caught our eye.
We go to Disney World a LOT and we ride a LOT of rides over and over. So we feel like we’ve got a good idea of where the best seats are on each ride, as well as what the worst seats are!
Tree of Life — ain’t she a beaut?
Now, we LOVE Disney’s Animal Kingdom. Much of the appeal of that park isn’t even the rides themselves, but all the wonderful animals you can see while you’re there! It’s part safari and part theme park, which makes it an interesting place to visit. But you’ll still want to know how to best tackle those RIDES!
