Heading to Disney World soon? There’s a lot going on these days, from the launch of Disney Genie and Genie+ to the 50th Anniversary Celebration!
Magic Kingdom
With Halloween right around the corner, let’s catch up on the park hours and current Park Pass Reservation availability for the week of October 24th!
If you’ve been to Disney World before, chances are you know that feeling: you just want to get from one side of Magic Kingdom to the other, but you’re met with a wall of crowds or a parade or cavalcade, slowing you down big time! Well, did you know that there are SECRET walkways that can help you avoid those crowds?
Main Street, U.S.A.
Okay, so maybe these walkways aren’t a complete secret, but there are often-overlooked walkways in the parks that can help you save some time while getting from point A to point B — or, at least it will make your walk more pleasant and crowd-free. With the 50th Anniversary Celebration bringing in plenty of visitors, it’s more important than ever to be aware of where the shortcuts and alternate routes are in the parks!
At the end of 2021, Disney’s Magical Express will be discontinued and will conclude its service to and from Orlando International Airport. As of this writing, Disney has yet to announce their own replacement program that will shuttle guests from the airport to their resort hotel, but Mears, the company that operated Magical Express, has announced what they will provide.

Mears Connect will launch right after Magical Express is discontinued, so it’s important to get the rundown on what exactly this new service is, how it’s similar to Magical Express, and how it’s different!

Happy 50th, Disney World!

One of the ways Disney accommodates guests with special needs is through their Disability Access Service, or DAS for short. Normally, guests would visit Guest Relations in the theme parks in order to sign up for DAS, which allows guests who have difficulty tolerating extended waits in conventional queues the ability to to book return times for rides and attractions.
Guest Relations
We learned earlier this year that Disney would be launching new services to make the DAS experience more convenient, including an online chat feature and the ability to pre-register. Starting today, guests looking to add DAS to their upcoming vacation may do so ahead of their trip online, saving valuable time once in the parks!
