food IS a theme park
Disney World is a pretty awesome destination.
Get to the parks in the mornings for lower crowds!
When you’re headed to The Most Magical Place on Earth, you might be trying to decide whether to sat onsite or offsite. Well, this year, the on-property hotels have definitely had WAY fewer perks than they have in the past. BUT…there’s a NEW perk coming soon. Or at least…there’s supposed to be one coming soon. Umm…did Disney totally forget about this perk they announced?
Note that this post has been updated to reflect what to expect at Disney World in the summer of 2022.
So, hey, we hear you might be planning a trip to Disney World this summer!

We’re taking a look back at January in Disney World. This was a newsy month and frankly, there were a lot of things we just didn’t see coming! Here are the five most unexpected things that happened in Disney World last month!
Okay, let’s be honest, 2020 wasn’t the best year ever for Walt Disney World.
Walt Disney World Gateway
The parks shut down for several months and the Walt Disney Company suffered financially due to the pandemic. Thousands of Cast Members lost their jobs, and when the parks did reopen, they reopened without a lot of the amenities we’ve grown to love. Even though things like fireworks, parades, and FastPasses still haven’t returned, some exciting things are already happening in 2021.
WHEW! January was FULL of news!
Cinderella Castle
We’ve had about a year’s worth of news in just one month, with grand openings, festival news, and more. Back in December we rounded up the biggest news of the month, so we’re back in January to explore the 14 biggest announcements, changes, and most exciting things from this past month!
Like many people, we were pretty happy to say goodbye to 2020 and hello to 2021. It’s a brand new year!

And it seems Disney was eagerly anticipating the New Year, too, because the company has made a TON of announcements in the first month of 2021 — like, enough to last us all year! And it’s only JANUARY! And we’re still just getting used to Park Hopping being back at Disney World again!
