But recently, Disney announced even MORE exciting news that we 100% know WILL be happening this summer!

Pirates of the Caribbean

It’s time to take a look at this week’s average wait times! This week feels like a breath of fresh air at Disney World compared to last week! Last week, we saw intense crowd levels, and some pretty intense average wait times. Luckily, almost EVERY SINGLE ride’s wait time went down (and some by as much as 30 minutes!).

Are Permanent CLOSURES the Secret to Disney World’s Success?

By 1 Comment

So, we’ve been seeing a trend in Disney World recently.

Splash Mountain

Over the past few years, we’ve seen some things close FOREVER at Disney World. We witnessed the last EVER day of Splash Mountain. We watched Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser open and then close only about a year later. We were there when Country Bear Jamboree performed its last show (okay, not TECHNICALLY its last show, but the show IS changing, so it feels like we were saying goodbye). Although many fans have been upset with these closures, we’ve noticed something interesting.

Wait Times Aren’t Letting Up This Week At Disney World — Here’s How You Can Pass Some Time

By 1 Comment

Phew, wait times are NOT budging in Disney World right now.

Get ready to enter the Grid!

We spend SO much time in lines at the Disney parks, and sometimes it just does not feel like we get a reprieve from the long wait times. This week is one of those weeks! The lines may feel endless at times, but the rides can be SO worth it. There are even some fun things you can do with your family in line — even if you’re not in an interactive queue. For example, you could play a classic game of “I Spy”, you could play “Heads Up” (an app you can get on your phone), or even just take in the scenery and enjoy the moment. Sometimes, doing fun things like that can take some of the pain out of the long wait times — now, let’s take a look at how long you’ll be occupying yourself! [Read more…]
