food IS a theme park
If you are heading to Disney World today, be prepared for the potential for some severe weather!
Magic Kingdom is already looking dark and gloomy this morning.
Disney World will likely be hit by severe weather today, and we have all the details you need to know.
Although we would always like to think that our Disney World trips are going to be perfect, sometimes they’re not.
Hi, guys!!
You can’t count on things to go right. Sometimes, the weather is just awful. It’s either super rainy or it’s just so hot that you can’t see straight. Or maybe your favorite ride is closed. Maybe the crowds are just getting to be too much. We’ve all faced these things. So we’re going to tell you about times we thought we were just about to give up, and then tell you how we carried on.
Are you starting to plan for your 2025 trip to Disney World?
Orlando Airport
It’s never too early to start working on your plan — especially when you think about how we live in a world where flight cancellations can throw a wrench into even the most meticulously curated travel itineraries. Knowing which airlines are the most reliable can be a game-changer. So as we think about those 2025 plans, let’s take a look at recent data to see which airlines are better than the rest when it comes to keeping flights on schedule and minimizing cancellations.
We LOVE Disney World Cast Members! They work hard so we can have a magical time at Disney World!
Disney Cast Members are the best!
We asked some of our team members who used to work for the Mouse about the Disney myths they wish would just go away.
Are you planning to visit Disney World in April?
EPCOT
It’s a great time to visit Disney World, that’s for sure! You’re likely to get good weather that isn’t TOO hot just yet (although it might be rainy). Spring Break should be over, which means you won’t have serious crowds to contend with. The EPCOT Flower & Garden Festival will still be going on, so you can enjoy all the beautiful topiaries AND amazing food. But we want to warn you about some things if you’re visiting in April, too.
Disney World may be the Most Magical Place on Earth, but that doesn’t mean everything is always sunshine and rainbows.
Welcome to the Magic Kingdom!
Although, given that Disney World is in Florida, you do have to deal with a lot of sunshine. And, if you’re not prepared for it, it can really have a major impact on your trip. With Spring Break season officially here, the temperatures in Disney World are on the rise — and so are the crowds.
The spring break travel season is upon us, and well, if you’re traveling this weekend, you may need to bring some patience, at least if you’re flying on one particular airline. So here’s the thing. Spring break travel means a LOT of people are flying into Orlando International Airport. However, this time of the year also brings rainy weather to the South and Southeast.
Southwest Airlines at the Orlando Airport
Those two things mean that this is the time of year that flight delays could happen (we saw delays around this time last year), especially on Southwest Airlines, which has a lot of flights coming and going from those destinations. As of March 9th, Southwest Airlines has delayed over 40% of its flights at Orlando International Airport. Ouch.
The weather is unpredictable no matter where you live. But in Orlando, Florida (especially Disney World), the weather feels EXTRA hard to predict.
Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular
We’ve experienced everything from extreme heat to extreme cold (at least in Florida) and everything in between. However, one weather occurrence you can count on in Disney World is RAIN. Well, it’s recently been VERY rainy and wet in Disney World, and that weather has affected one show in Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
If you’re going to a Disney park on vacation, you might be expecting lovely weather!
Mickey Mouse at Disneyland
After all, the domestic Disney parks are located in California and Florida — states known for their sunshine. But if you’ve ever been to Florida in the summertime, you know that it rains nearly every day…and now it seems California is getting the same treatment in February. We’ve got a weather WARNING for those heading to Disneyland Resort soon!
A few years ago, Disney World added one BIG perk to select hotels.
Who’s up for a ride on the Skyliner?
That’s right, we’re talking about the Disney Skyliner! This new-ish form of transportation opened in 2019 and since then, those staying at Pop Century Resort, Art of Animation Resort, Caribbean Beach Resort, and Riviera Resort have been able to ride “The Most Magical Flight on Earth” to select locations. The Skyliner has been so popular, in fact, that sometimes people will park at Hollywood Studios just to hop on it and ride the loop! But if you’re hoping for a ride, you should know that there are certain times when you CAN’T ride the Skyliner in Disney World.
