So many things have returned to Disney World over the past several month, but there are still some things missing!

Hey there, Mickey!
We’ve seen the reopening of restaurants and special experiences, as well as the return of a lot of character meet and greets in the parks recently. But, there are still some spots that remain closed, as well as some experiences. But, MORE characters are finally about to return to another Disney World park!
Starting on September 4th, two major character experiences are coming to Disney’s Animal Kingdom! The first is that there will be a brand-new “Adventure Flotilla” cruising around Discovery River that will feature either Launchpad McQuack and Scrooge McDuck from Disney’s DuckTales, or Russell and Dug from Pixar’s UP!

This is a great way to see characters!
Also on September 4th, more character meet and greets are returning to the park! Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, and Chip ‘n’ Dale are coming back to DinoLand U.S.A., and the chipmunks will even be in their amazing dinosaur costumes!

You’ll be able to meet Chip ‘n’ Dale in their DINO Costumes again!
Remember the Mickey and Minnie Mouse meet and greet also returned recently to the park over at Adventurers Outpost, so you can meet them on your trip, too!

And, a lot of other character meet and greets are back to normal around the parks as well, like some Star Wars characters in Hollywood Studios and Mickey Mouse in Magic Kingdom.
