food IS a theme park
If long lines and big crowds stress you out, you probably should just close this post right now. Seriously. It got SCARY in EPCOT today.
The CROWDS
Journey of Water, Inspired by Moana has soft-opened in EPCOT, and it’s already VERY popular. Come with us to check out the CROWDS and find out how long you might have to wait in order to go inside the new attraction. [Read more…]
It’s been another week full of Disney news!
EPCOT
Disney released a ton of information about EPCOT Festival of the Holidays including the food booths, the entertainment, celebrity narrators for the Candelight Processional, dining packages, the return of the cookie stroll, and more. Also Journey of Water, Inspired by Moana has soft opened as well as the Moana meet and greet! Even though the Disney news has been busy, the parks seem to have calmed down when it comes to wait times.
Not all rides are built the same — some are much harder to get on than others.
EPCOT
Whether that’s because the ride has a Virtual Queue (we’re looking at you, TRON Lightcycle / Run) or it has one of the longest lines in the park, there’s a reason that we warn you about attractions like Rise of the Resistance and Slinky Dog Dash. But there’s been a huge update involving an EPCOT ride and it has certainly impacted the wait times!
Disney World can be a magical place.
Crowds
Mickey hugs, DOLE Whips, and fireworks? What’s not to love? However, there’s one thing that can get in the way of a seamless trip — crowds. Disney World is a popular place, so crowds are kind of unavoidable. But, if you know where to look — you might just be better prepared to handle them (and maybe decide to visit on another day). Here’s how to predict if Magic Kingdom will be crowded when you’re there.
A brand-new attraction is coming to EPCOT, and it’s drawing in the masses!
Journey of Water — Inspired by Moana
Journey of Water — Inspired by Moana is set to open in World Nature on October 16th, 2023, but before that, select guests can check it out thanks to some Annual Passholder previews. The previews are already underway, but we’ve noticed one big problem with them…a problem that we think may repeat itself.
When you think of rides that everyone is obsessed with in Disney World, what do you pick?
Disney’s Animal Kingdom
You may be thinking about Rise of the Resistance, Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, or a classic like Jungle Cruise. But when you look at the wait times, there’s a clear frontrunner as the most popular ride in Disney World almost every time — Flight of Passage!
Disney World can be pretty unpredictable at times.
Rainy day on Main Street
Ride closures, transportation troubles, and technological problems can all affect your experience in the parks. It’s a good idea to have a Plan B in case you encounter one of these setbacks, but sometimes the setbacks are a lot more involved than one simple ride closure. Today, in Magic Kingdom, three whole lands were closed due to a bear that had been spotted in the area — just when we thought we had seen everything! So, just what does the park look like when half of it is closed? Come find out.
EPCOT is home to many different kinds of restaurants and attractions, which means you should probably expect to wait in some lines.
Mexico
Sometimes, you know exactly where to expect the lines, like at popular rides such as Frozen Ever After. But we spotted a majorly long line recently in a place that you may not be expecting.
We have to warn you about something in Disney World.
Magic Kingdom
There are so many aspects that go into planning a trip — the hotel, the travel, the tickets, the dining reservations, and MORE. So it is our duty to let you know about what’s going on with Disney World wait times right now!
Have you heard about the BIG change coming to Magic Kingdom tomorrow?
Cinderella Castle
One attraction is finally reopening after being completely updated, but you might want to AVOID this park, at least for a few days. [Read more…]
