food IS a theme park
We’ve got an important Disney Dining Plan UPDATE for ya!
Magic Kingdom
You all already know that the Dining Plans are returning on January 9th, and you probably also know that, when the plans return, they’ll look a little different than they did before. Rules have changed, some restaurants have changed their credit requirements, and the prices have been updated as well. Now we’ve got an update about which Main Street Confectionery treats will be counted as snacks in 2024!
Tons of people are super excited that the Disney Dining Plans are RETURNING in January 2024! And…that’s why we feel a little bit like Sadness from Inside Out when we have to rain on everyone’s parade and remind you of a few not-so-awesome changes that are impacting the Dining Plans when they come back.

We have some BIG updates for you about changes coming to Disney World in 2024.
Cinderella Castle
In the last few years, Disney has made some major decisions — and they haven’t all been popular. From introducing a paid version of FastPass to requiring Park Pass Reservations to get into the parks, many Disney guests have had some gripes. Well, it looks like Disney is listening, because next year, lots of things are changing. If you’re planning a trip to Disney World in 2024, we’ve got all the details.
