food IS a theme park
We don’t think we’ve ever met anyone that actually ENJOYS super long lines at Disney World, but hey, those people could be out there!
AH! So many people!
And, if those people do exist, they would be SUPER happy with how Disney World has been lately. Long wait times and big crowds are the norm these days thanks to the Spring Break season! So, what was the damage this week? Let’s take a look at the average wait times around Disney World!
Heading to Disney World this coming week? Before you get to the parks, you should probably know which attractions, rides, and hotels are NOT going to be available during your trip!
Cinderella Castle
Disney is consistently updating things at the parks and hotels, which means that sometimes certain attractions will be closed for a while. To help you avoid disappointing surprises, we’ve compiled a list of everything that’s scheduled to be closed next week. Of course, there could still be some surprise closures (due to technical issues or bad weather), but at least with the information here, you’ll be ahead of the game in knowing what’s available and what’s not.

These days, it can sometimes feel like Disney rides are closing left, right, and center!
Big Thunder Mountain at Disneyland
No, don’t worry, most of them are not closing PERMANENTLY. Some attractions have just been shutting down for a little while to get general maintenance. We’ve seen it happen recently with several fan-favorites at Disney World, and multiple rides at Disneyland Resort have had scheduled refurbishments as well. Today, ANOTHER popular ride is closing for a little while!
If you’re planning to be in Disney World soon, there are a lot of things you need to prepare for.
EPCOT International Flower and Garden Festival
You need to decide on where you want to make dining reservations, pack clothes for some warm weather, and get ready to deal with crowds. The crowds have been pretty intense lately, so let’s take a look at how bad the wait times were this week in Disney World.
Ignorance might sometimes be bliss, but not when it comes to a Disney World vacation.
Magic Kingdom
No, when you’re planning a trip to the Most Magical Place on Earth, it’s better to know as much as you can about the parks, restaurants, hotels, and attractions. That way you’ll be able to plan the BEST trip possible for you and your group. To help you out, we put together a list of everything that’s going to be CLOSED in Disney World next week so that you’re equipped with all the latest information that could affect your trip.

Disney Springs
We get it, it’s easy! You can end up hating the Disney hotel that you booked (and paid thousands of dollars to stay at), having to console your kiddos after taking them on a ride that you thought was well-suited for children, or end up walking around the parks with a hangry family after you come to find that the next mobile order window isn’t for another three hours. But, all these mistakes are avoidable and we’re going to let you in on all our little tips and secrets that will ensure you enjoy your visit to Disney Springs!
We’ve got several updates that you need to read before you head to Disney World soon!

It’s MARCH in Disney World — Spring is around the corner, we’re starting to see consistently warm weather, and it’s almost St. Patrick’s Day!
Spring is coming!
Buuuut with the warm weather and springtime come even more crowds. We’ve already seen the parks be very busy during January and February, so we are just a bit nervous about how big the Spring Break crowds are going to be. Since the month has kicked off and some schools may already be out on break, let’s take a look at the wait times from around Disney World this week!
One of our top tips for planning a Disney World vacation is to make a list beforehand of the rides and attractions that you want to visit most. But how can you make that list if you don’t know what’s going to be open in the parks?

February is almost over, and usually that would mean the end of the slow season in Disney World and the beginning of Spring Break crowds…but not this year!
Big yikes, y’all!
This year, there have been unusually high crowds in the parks during the “slow” season, and it seems as if things are just getting busier. This week was particularly busy, probably due to President’s Day Weekend, the start of the Disney Princess Half Marathon Weekend, AND some schools around the country being on their Winter Breaks. So, how much worse did the average wait times get? Let’s take a look!
