food IS a theme park
Using Disney Genie+ can be incredibly helpful during your Disney World vacation, but it can also be a PAIN.
Genie+
Learning how to navigate the app, not knowing the price for Genie+ in advance, and trying to snag Lightning Lanes for the popular rides that book up FAST can be pretty overwhelming. There’s just so much to take in! And on top of that, sometimes the My Disney Experience app just has random glitches that cause issues.
Disney World is known for being the Most Magical Place on Earth — but it isn’t all magic, all the time.
Welcome to the Magic Kingdom!
Sure, we do our best to go with the flow and not make a big deal out of things, but sometimes we just can’t help feeling awkward during certain Disney interactions. And, since we’re friends, we’re letting you in on the top awkward moments that we cringe at — every single time.
We know that planning a Disney World trip isn’t exactly a walk in the park.
Spaceship Earth
You have to decide when to go, where to stay, what to eat, which rides to go on, and a whole lot more. It’s not easy, and if you’re new to the process it can seem incredibly daunting. Whether it’s your first time or your fiftieth time, these are the necessary evils of planning a Disney World trip.
While we frequently make recommendations and nudge you towards some of the better (in our opinion) things Disney World has to offer, occasionally we have strong pieces of advice that we believe you should absolutely take. This is one of those occasions.
Tree of Life in Animal Kingdom
In theory, planning a Disney World vacation should be the most stressful part of your trip. Once you get to the resort, that’s where the fun begins. We wish we could say it was all fun, but if plan on visiting Disney’s Animal Kingdom, you should brace yourself for a possibly rocky experience with one particular attraction.
It’s a BIG DAY for Disney World fans!! 🎉
Cinderella Castle in Magic Kingdom
LOTS of things are changing in Disney World today! The Disney Dining Plan is BACK. Park Pass reservation requirements are GONE for most guests. AND you can now park hop ALL DAY long — no more waiting until 2PM! Of course we’re in the parks all day today covering all the changes; and well, first thing this morning the way Genie+ was working with our annual pass surprised us!
We’re getting ready to ring in the New Year in Disney World, and things are pretty busy right now!
Happy New Year!
We’re getting ready to say goodbye to the holiday season and hello to 2024. We’re already diving into some special New Year’s snacks and navigating all the crowds, but let’s take a look at something else today that we bet you’ll be interested in — the price of Genie+.
2024 is bringing some serious changes to Disney World.
2024 will be an exciting time!
The best part? 2024 is only a few days away! While most of these changes won’t actually go into effect until January 9th, we’re excited nonetheless. One of the biggest changes taking place is the removal of park pass reservation requirements for most ticketed visitors. After the 9th, you’ll no longer need a park pass reservation to enter a park — with the exception of Magic Kingdom on Saturdays and Sundays. With that update comes another HUGE update hidden inside — and a lot of folks might not know about this yet.
Disney World has a lot planned for the new year.
2024 will be an exciting time!
From new restaurants and new rides to the return of the Disney Dining Plan, 2024 is going to be a big one for Disney World. In January, five new rule changes will hit the parks…are you ready for them?
Thanksgiving week is officially here.
Thanksgiving Feast Time!
Usually around the holidays, we see higher crowds in the parks and this year is turning out to be no different! With more people comes high wait times. But it might also affect the way that you get those Lightning Lane passes.
It’s safe to say Disney World will never stop changing and adapting. Blink and it may suddenly look totally different.
Cinderella Castle
Wednesday, October 11th saw a bunch of Disney World news regarding new pricing and park hopping. Focusing on the latter, we learned that new park hopping rules will be implemented on January 9th, 2024 (the same day most Disney World guests will no longer need park reservations). If all of the rule-changing and necessary vacation adjustments weren’t confusing/overwhelming enough, another wrench, albeit a positive one, just got thrown into the mix.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
