Could next week FINALLY be the week it reopens? We’re seeing some clues that have us hoping! Here’s a full list of all the temporary closures in Disney World this coming week, including updates about announced or possible reopenings.
Right now might be the ideal time to visit Disney World! We saw some pretty big crowds in the parks around Thanksgiving time, and Genie+ price increases reflected the higher demand. But Genie+ has been around $15 to $17 per person lately (not $29 like we saw over the holiday weekend!), wait times at popular rides are lower, and crowds, in general, have been very light. It seems like early December is a great time to get all the holiday cheer in the parks without all the hassle of big crowds.
