It feels like there are more streaming services than TV channels these days, right? ©Disney Well, okay, maybe that’s a *bit* of an exaggeration, but there are a ton of them! Remember the days when it was just Netflix? And DVDs were mailed to you?! Now, we also have Disney+, Amazon Prime, Hulu, Peacock, HBO Max, Apple TV+, Paramount+, ESPN+…we could keep going! These are all at various different price points and have different features, but those costs can really add up. So, if you’re a Hulu subscriber, you need to lookout for an upcoming price increase. If you have the Hulu subscription with no advertisements, the price is about to go up to $14.99 per month starting on October 10th, 2022. You should see this in your first billing cycle on or after that date. ©Hulu The payment method that you have on file will be charged the updated price unless you cancel your Hulu subscription before your first billing cycle on or after October 10th. ©Hulu Do know that if you’re currently subscribed to Hulu with a discount or a promotional offer, the price adjustment won’t impact your current pricing. ©Hulu You can also switch your subscription to the Hulu subscription with ads if you want a lower price.

Disney Cruise Line Helps Bahamian Students Get Back-To-School ReadyView the full article

The Walt Disney Company is often looked at as an example of what it means to be successful in business. ©Disney That success was evident during the last company earnings call, where we learned that parks revenue had increased by $4.3 billion in the third quarter of this year. So, it’s no wonder that Walt Disney Company executives would be invited to speak at the occasional business affair here and there. Recently, two senior Disney officials participated in a question and answer session at a Bank of America conference and spoke about various aspects of the business. We listened in, and we’re recapping all the important info you need to know! Walt Disney Company Senior Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Christine McCarthy and Chairman of Disney Parks, Experiences, and Products Josh D’Amaro recently participated in a Q&A session at the Bank of America Securities Media, Communications & Entertainment Conference. During the session, the executives answered questions on everything from park capacity to advertising and more. ©Disney | Walt Disney Company Headquarters We listened in, and are sharing everything you might want to know! Disney+ and Streaming There was a lot of talk about Disney+ and the new ad-supported tier that is being introduced to the service later this year. When asked about pricing, Christine McCarthy commented that when Disney+ first launched, it was priced at “an attractive price point” in order to gain subscribers. Now that more content has come to the platform (both original and acquired) the prices are increasing to match the quantity and quality of content. ©Disney Disney+ is introducing its ad-supported tier in December, and McCarthy confirmed that during the initial rollout, there will only be 4 minutes of ads per hour. She went on to say that they’ve had no struggle to find advertisers, as the spaces available are scarce which is driving demand. During the initial marketing phase, the company generated over $9 billion in advertiser commitments. ©Disney | She-Hulk on Disney+ The executives also briefly discussed Disney-owned ESPN and the thought behind continuing to own that branch. They shared that ESPN is viewed as an asset by the company and is “fully integrated into how [they] think about delivering content to consumers.” ©Disney That integration was also mentioned when it came to the overall Disney consumer experience as it relates to the in-park subscriber perks coming for Disney+ Day. Everything We Know About Disney+ Day This Year Disney Parks When it comes to the Disney parks experience, the consumer or guest experience was also at the forefront of the conversation. Disney films and franchises can “translate directly into theme park experiences” according to Josh D’Amaro. He went on to name Pandora in Animal Kingdom and Avengers Campus in Disneyland Resort and Disneyland Paris as examples. Pandora in Animal Kingdom D’Amaro also revealed that despite Disneyland having been closed for over 400 days during the global pandemic, the company recovered “very quickly” (albeit not very smoothly) which “speaks to the power of the brand and the connections that guests have” to it. And, despite guest volume being lower, the operating income of Disney parks is above where it was at this time in 2019. Disneyland’s closed gates in 2020 One thing that has stuck around is the Park Pass Reservation System, which allows them to put a cap on attendance and “fully utilize assets” in the parks. The company knew that the system could be used as a tool to “much better manage park capacity and guest experience.” Hollywood Studios Of course, Disney Genie was mentioned as an additional tool that was introduced in the past year, which “optimizes park time for guests” but is also beneficial for the company as it can guide guests to certain attractions or areas of the parks. But, guests can go even further if they so choose by planning their day with Genie+ and Individual Lightning Lanes. According to D’Amaro, 70% of guests surveyed who have purchased Genie+ said they would buy the service on future visits. Disney Genie When asked about how data drives business and decision-making in the parks, the executives shared that new systems (like Genie and even Disney+) can gather more data about guests that can improve experiences and give the company more information about how best to direct you in the parks. This can help them create a full picture of the consumer and “move people seamlessly through [their] experiences.” Click Here to Read Our Ultimate Guide to Disney Genie Overall, we didn’t learn any bombshell news or information from this call. BUT, we are expecting to learn plenty of juicy news and announcements on Disney+ Day taking place on September 8th! Not only that, but the D23 Expo is coming up right after that and promises exciting panels, entertainment, announcements, celebrity appearances, and more.

Do you turn left or right when you enter the EPCOT World Showcase? Whether you start with margaritas in Mexico or poutine in Canada, you’ll end up at the American Adventure pavilion about halfway through your journey around the world. The American Adventure If you’re visiting EPCOT soon, there’s a new American Adventure pavilion update that you’ll need to know about! This spot is missing some hours in the near future, which could indicate an upcoming refurbishment. At the American Adventure, there’s a show that features various animatronics that tell the story of America. Some of the narrators include Benjamin Franklin, Mark Twain, Susan B. Anthony, Frederick Douglass, and more. The American Adventure This show usually plays every hour on the half-hour from 11:30AM to 7:30PM, but it’s currently not showing times starting on September 19th, 2022. ©Disney The calendar doesn’t say that the show will be unavailable — there simply aren’t any times listed from September 19th through November 6th (which is as far as Disney’s calendar goes for now). This could be a glitch on the website, but it could also mean that the pavilion and show will be closed for a while this fall. We’ll keep an eye out for any updates and be sure to let you know if Disney makes any announcements about this project. American Adventure There are several other refurbishments happening in Disney World this fall. To see all of them in one place, check out our post about all the closures happening in Disney World in September. There are also several construction projects going on in the parks for upcoming attractions, like the Journey of Water — Inspired by Moana in EPCOT and TRON: Lightcycle Run in Magic Kingdom. Construction on the upcoming ‘Moana’ attraction There have also been some big reopenings recently, including the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique at Magic Kingdom and the buffet at Hollywood & Vine in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Characters will be returning to a few restaurants soon, including Lilo and Stitch at ‘Ohana’s breakfast! We’ll continue to watch for more updates in Disney World, so stay tuned to DFB for the latest Disney news.

Just a cricket’s hop away from the charming, old world Pinocchio Village Haus in Fantasyland, “The Most Magical Place on Earth,” Walt Disney World, boasts one of the merriest members of the Disney Fab 50 Character Collection (#DisneyWorld50). It’s Pinocchio himself, in the form of a golden statue that captures the little puppet in jaunty […]View the full article

There is a lot going on with Disney World resorts right now. Polynesian Village Resort Disney’s BoardWalk Inn is getting some major changes (and a new restaurant JUST opened there), Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa just got a brand new DVC building, and Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort has demolished the old Spirit of Aloha building and is working on some new DVC villas in that space. So let’s take a look at the DVC villas progress at the Polynesian! Back in late July, the former Spirit of Aloha space was gone and there was nothing but a lot of dirt left in that space. July progress At the end of August, though, we started seeing more construction vehicles in the space, so it looks like work is starting to really pick up there. There’s also a big mound of dirt present now. Polynesian construction There’s also scaffolding that’s been built at the far edge of the space, so it looks like we might start seeing some building construction happening soon. The latest One of the biggest updates is that the sign that used to point guests to Kona Cafe, ‘Ohana, and Spirit of Aloha at Luau Cove has been changed. Here’s what it looked like in July — note that Spirit of Aloha is still on there. Old Kona Cafe sign Here’s what that sign looks like now — Spirit of Aloha and Luau Cove have been completely removed from it. New Sign Speaking of Kona Cafe, it’s currently closed for a refurbishment (like we said, a LOT is going on with the Polynesian right now!). It closed on August 15th, and we don’t yet have a reopening date. However, you can still use Mobile Order to get select breakfast, lunch, and dinner offerings from Kona Island. Kona Cafe construction The good news is that almost all of the rest of the resort is still open, including the pools, and most of the dining. The character breakfast is also returning to ‘Ohana on September 27th, so keep that in mind if you’re looking for a great character dining experience! We’re going to continue to keep an eye on the progress of the new DVC villas, and we’ll be sure to keep you updated on it, too. Be sure to stay tuned to DFB for more. In the meantime, if you’re planning on staying at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort soon, just know that Spirit of Aloha is now gone and that there is some construction being done in the area.

For every person who loves to fly, there’s someone who REALLY doesn’t like it. Flying isn’t fun for everyone Whether it’s the stress of traveling or the cramped seating arrangements on the plane, flying isn’t exactly relaxing. That said, one airline is solving the tiny seat problem with a creative solution — but it’ll cost you. Yahoo Finance reported that Australian airline Qantas is now offering customers the opportunity to purchase the empty seat next to them for as low as $20 (in U.S. Dollars). This trial is known as the “Neighbor Free” program and it’s currently only offered on domestic flights in Australia. Qantas also flies to Orlando International Airport for customers using Qantas points — so this could potentially become a perk for the airline in the United States too! ©Daniel Gorun/Airways Magazine So how does it work? Basically, anyone who has booked a flight that doesn’t end up full will receive an email about 48 hours before their departure, and they can choose to upgrade and purchase the empty seat for between $20 to $45 (or $30 to $65 in Australian Dollars). The extra seat isn’t guaranteed, however, until departure, and if the plane ends up at capacity customers will get a refund. Air travel isn’t easy these days. Other airlines also offer this upgrade, including Etihad and Emirates, and Air New Zealand also offers an option to upgrade seats to a couch-like figuration known as a “Skycouch.” If the empty seat upgrade program is successful for Qantas, they will consider offering it on more domestic flights later in 2022. Would you purchase an empty seat? Qantas notes that the majority of their aircraft feature armrests that can’t fully raise, and you don’t get an additional checked baggage allowance for your extra seat. If you’re a Qantas Frequent Flyer, you can earn Qantas points for each seat you purchase (remember, you can use points for flights to Orlando!). Basic airplane seat If you’re planning a flight to Orlando Airport soon, we recommend checking out the following links for all the information you need for your trip: Air travel tips that’ll change your life Our best tips for flying through Orlando International Airport 21 things a former flight attendant needs you to know What to do if your flight to Disney World is canceled We’ll be watching out for more airlines to offer this empty seat program so stay tuned to DFB for more news and updates!

Picture this: you’re walking right past the Tree of Life in Animal Kingdom when you get the strongest urge for…a McDonald’s Egg McMuffin? Or maybe you’re strolling through Magic Kingdom and suddenly crave Taco Bell nachos! If you thought you wouldn’t be able to satisfy those fast food cravings in Disney World, you’d be…WRONG! We love a Disney Happy Meal! Disney World is full of amazing food, but sometimes all you want is a treat that tastes like the fast food you know and love. Well, Disney can deliver in that department too. Today we’re going through our list of fast food dupes you probably never realized you could get in Disney World! 1 — McDonald’s Hamburgers in Disney’s Animal Kingdom Got the sudden urge to bite into a McDonald’s hamburger while hanging out in Disney’s Animal Kingdom? Head over to Satu’li Canteen in Pandora — The World of Avatar to satisfy that itch with their fan-favorite Cheeseburger Steamed Pods! Did someone say Cheeseburger Pods? These little bao bun beauties do NOT disappoint. Essentially, they’ve got all the flavors of a McDonald’s cheeseburger stuffed inside of a deliciously soft and slightly sweet bao bun. Inside the pods The pods are filled with Ground Beef, Ketchup, Mustard, Pickle, and Cheddar Cheese and served with Crunchy Vegetable Slaw and Vegetable Chips. They’ve got a strong mustard and pickle flavor and are a BIG favorite of ours and many Disney guests. If you love McDonald’s hamburgers, you won’t want to miss these! Pro tip: you can grab an adult’s version (2 pods) or a kids’ version (1 pod) of this dish depending on how hungry you are! Click here for our FULL review of the Cheeseburger Pods and more from Satu’li Canteen 2 — Panera Mac & Cheese at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa Looking for something warm, filling, and comforting, like a bowl of Panera’s Mac & Cheese? Hop on over to Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa and make your way to Gasparilla Island Grill for their ahhhhhmazing house-made mac & cheese! House-Made Mac and Cheese It might look unassuming, but this is truly one of the BEST plates of pasta in all of Disney World. This dish is creamy and the cheese THICCCK, and nestled within all of that cheese are heaps of elbow macaroni. It’s the ultimate in comfort food. Click here to see more about the BEST pasta in Disney World 3 — Popeyes Fried Chicken Sandwich at Disney Springs Okay, okay, we know that for those who absolutely worship Chef Art Smith’s Homecomin’ in Disney Springs, comparing this spot’s Fried Chicken Sandwich to Popeyes Fried Chicken Sandwich might be sacrilegious. But, the point we’re trying to make here is that if you absolutely LOVE Popeyes Fried Chicken Sandwich (or another fast food chicken sandwich that has entered the fried chicken sandwich wars), the version at Homecomin’ is NOT to be missed. Homecomin’/Shine Bar Fried Chicken Sandwich Y’all, there are no words. The chicken is Buttermilk-brined for 24 hours and hand-battered, then it’s dressed with hot sauce, aioli, iceberg lettuce, tomato, and bread and butter pickles. Plus, it’s served with house-made barbecue chips drizzled with icebox dressing. The bun is delicious, the chicken has so much crunch, it’s juicy, and overall it is just a total WIN. Homecoming Fried Chicken Sandwich Given the deliciousness of the fried chicken at Homecomin’ in general, plus the particularly tasty nature of this sandwich, you may take one bite and become a Homecomin’ fan for life, with LOTS of return visits in your future. Don’t say we didn’t warn ya! Click here to see more about Homecomin’ and read our full reviews of the restaurant! 4 — McDonald’s Fries at EPCOT Cravings for McDonald’s fries can be VERY strong and real. If you’re anywhere in Disney World, an order of Disney fries from a standard quick service restaurant could do the trick. Several members of our team shared that they find Disney’s standard fries to be pretty comparable to those at McDonald’s. You used to be able to get ACTUAL McDonald’s fries in Disney World, but sadly those days are over, so regular Disney fries will have to do for now. Get Some Cheese Sauce to Take Those Fries to the NEXT Level But if you want an extra close comparison, one member of our team shared that they’re CONVINCED that the fries served as part of the Traditional Poutine over at Refreshment Port in EPCOT taste just like McDonald’s fries (toppings aside, of course). 2021 Traditional Poutine from Refreshment Port Give them a try and see if you feel like these have an extra special similarity to McDonald’s fries. Click here to read about EPCOT fries that are SO good we’ll be dreaming about them for weeks 5 — Taco Bell Nachos in Magic Kingdom Sometimes there’s nothing better than some cheesy nachos from Taco Bell, and if it’s nachos you’re after, Magic Kingdom is a good place to be. Head over to Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Cafe in the Most Magical Place on Earth and grab the Beef Nachos for a similar feel. Pecos Bill Beef Nachos These nachos come with tortilla chips covered in seasoned ground beef and queso, plus lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream, shredded cheese, and salsa on the side. The beef makes the nachos really greasy, so it’s pretty on point with Taco Bell. Just be warned that the grease can make the chips get a bit soggy, so eat them fast. Beef Nachos with Toppings The queso is basically a leveled-up version of plastic cheese with great seasoning and creaminess to it. Unfortunately, our chips haven’t always been the best here — sometimes they’ve felt a little stale — but if nachos are what you’re craving, these could do the trick. Click here for our FULL review of these nachos and other dishes from Pecos Bill 6 — McDonald’s Egg McMuffin in Disney’s Animal Kingdom Start your day the right way at Disney’s Animal Kingdom with a breakfast that’ll make you feel like you just swung by your favorite McDonald’s — in a good way! If it’s an Egg McMuffin you’re after, stop by Yak and Yeti Local Food Cafes for their English Muffin breakfast options. There’s a Sausage and Egg English Muffin with Eggs, American Cheese, and Sausage on a toasted English Muffin, or a version with Egg Whites, American Cheese, and Tomato on a toasted English Muffin. Breakfast Menu Plus they’re served with little hash brown bites to truly complete your breakfast experience. Little Hashbrowns! This is a spot that can often get overlooked, but if you need a quick breakfast in the park it might be a place to consider. Click here for our review of breakfast at Yak and Yeti Local Food Cafes 7 — Sonic Cherry Limeade at Disney’s BoardWalk It might not have Sonic’s famous ice ( ) but the Cherry Limeade at BoardWalk Deli at Disney’s BoardWalk can still be a sweet and refreshing way to cool off! Cherry Limeade This drink is made with Amarena Cherry, Cold-pressed Lime Juice, and Sparkling Water. The lime isn’t super strong, but you still get some tartness to balance out the sweet cherry. Sweet and refreshing While it might not be identical to Sonic’s famous drink, it could hit the spot if you’re in the middle of Disney World and craving a bit of that same feel. Click here to read our full review of some of the classic soda-shop-style drinks at BoardWalk Deli! 8 — Arby’s Fries in Disney Springs And finally, we end our list with Arby’s Fries in Disney Springs! No, seriously! Okay, well the Air Fries from the Local Green Orlando Food Truck in Disney Springs aren’t exactly the same as Arby’s Fries (particularly since they’re not curly) but they do capture a similar flavor profile. We’d come here just for the fries, TBH! These fries are absolutely OUTSTANDING. They’re crispy, crunchy, and delicious. Plus, they have a little bit of a kick thanks to some chili and garlic seasoning. Seriously, these might be some of the BEST fries in all of Disney World. Click here for our full review of Local Green Orlando Honorable Mention: The Walking Taco in Magic Kingdom We didn’t officially include this as a “dupe” because…well…it’s not really a dupe. The Walking Taco at Magic Kingdom’s Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Cafe IS truly a Walking Taco. It’s served separately. If you’re not familiar with walking tacos, they’re basically a fair-type food that is easy to carry around and eat on the go. This dish at Disney World is made of a bag of Fritos Scoops, topped with ground beef, yellow rice, black beans, cheddar, jalapeno, tomato, and sour cream (a.k.a. a Frito Pie in a bag). The Walking Taco While it’s a simple option, we REALLY enjoyed this entree. The Fritos stayed crunchy, it was served hot, there were lots of toppings to enjoy, and the flavors were spot on. But if you really want to take things to the next level, order a side of queso to go with your walking taco, and prepare to have your mind and taste buds blown away! Getting Hungry Yet? That queso addition is typically only $1 so it’s something you could totally add to tons of other dishes at Pecos Bill too! Click here for our full details on this $1 snack hack!

Pull out those costumes and get ready for some spooks — Oogie Boogie Bash is BACK at Disneyland Resort over at Disney California Adventure Park! Time to Get Spooky! This Halloween-themed event features all kinds of special offerings including immersive treat trails, unique character appearances, candy (of course), and sooo much more. We attended the very first night of Oogie Boogie Bash and have been taking you along with us for the ride. All of the food and merch are fun, but the real reason why Oogie Boogie Bash succeeds is…its entertainment! So right now we’re taking a special look at ALL of the entertainment and characters you’ll get to see during the party. The entertainment at Oogie Boogie Bash is next level, particularly when it comes to rare character appearances, photo ops, and the unique Villains Grove. If you want entertainment, Oogie Boogie Bash has got it and it’s often entertainment you can’t find anywhere else. So let’s go over everything you can check out while there. Characters (Photo Spots and Treat Trails) Throughout Oogie Boogie Bash, you’ll find some super popular characters (and even some rare friends) decked out in Halloween gear or otherwise just meeting guests. Characters can be found at various places throughout Disney California Adventure Park, including within those immersive Treat Trails, so don’t forget to keep those eyes peeled! Photo opportunities are marked on the map with a camera, while treat trails are marked with a little cauldron. A look inside! Last year we got to see a bunch of friends throughout the party, and this year was no different. While at the party this year, we actually got to meet THE Bruno from Encanto. Bruno! Yes, we sang the song for the rest of the night. Yes, it will now be stuck in your head all day. You’re welcome. Click here to see more about our interaction with Bruno! There was also a really special photo op available with Mickey dressed in his Kingdom Hearts attire. You Are SO Sweet Mickey! Lines for this photo op were REALLLLLLY long, so be prepared for that. Oh wait…you won’t have to! In this magical garden, you may get to see some roses that paint themselves. Spooky…but also convenient. Painting the Roses Red Further into the trail you can visit some friends on the other side with Dr. Facilier. This area has some shadows that may just look like hands reaching out to GRAB YOU along with “colorful spells” meant to lure you deeper and deeper into the grove. Careful! The Wicked Queen’s area is a Lightning Forest so get ready to catch some storm flashes as they jump from branch to branch. Look Up! But wait, not everything is evil in this forest. Some friends are helping you escape in the Home of the Wisps section. These little friends can help guide you to safety, so follow their lights out of the grove! Not Everything Is Bad! Finally, you reach the last part of the grove, “Dawn.” In this space, you’ll realize that you’ve escaped the evils of the grove just in time! Follow the lanterns and shining light out of the path. And be sure to grab a few extra photos because the fog and lighting effects can make this area especially gorgeous. You’re on Your Way Out! While you might not see any “traditional” characters in here, Villains Grove captures the spirit of these Disney baddies in a beautiful and slightly creepy (in a good way) fashion. It’s a spot you won’t want to miss! The Lighting Is So Nice And that’s a look at the Oogie Boogie Bash entertainment! Oogie Boogie Bash will be taking place on select nights from now through October 31st, 2022. Tickets are unfortunately sold out, but if you were lucky enough to score one, you’ve got lots of great entertainment awaiting you! Oogie Boogie Bash Not heading to Oogie Boogie Bash this year?

We’ve been taking you along with us (virtually) to the FIRST party of the spooky season, to get a look at ALL of the special treats, entertainment, and more. We’ve already shared a look at the party merchandise and some INCREDIBLE guest costumes, but now it’s time to check out one of the best parts of the party — the treat trails! Throughout the park, there are immersive treat trails where you can stop to get some Halloween candy from Cast Members. Candy Time You can place your candy in the souvenir bag provided. Oogie Boogie Bash Treat Bag While the candy is fun, the real draw of these treat trails is the characters you can see and talk to there — especially when those are NEW or RARE characters. Generally, at the treat trails, you’ll find Disney villains lurking about, chatting with guests from a stage, and maybe even doing a performance or two! Oogie Boogie Bash Map There are markers around the park that indicate where to get treats and the locations are also marked on the party map with a little cauldron. A look inside! Just be aware that the really popular treat trails can develop some LOOOOOONG lines, so be prepared to wait a bit for those. Oh Boy Now, let’s go through ALL of the treat trails you can experience at Oogie Boogie Bash. During one treat trail, we spotted ERNESTO DE LA CRUZ — YES, THE Ernesto De La Cruz from Coco! Ummmm, yeah, can you say “EPIC?!” Mr. de La Cruz! Ernesto appeared in skeleton form and was singing and making all kinds of comments. He’s VERY animated and won’t hesitate to call your outfit REVOLTING, so be warned! Oogie Boogie Is Pretty Frightening! You may also be able to pick up a little souvenir button when you stop by the Oogie Boogie treat trail (while supplies last), so be on the lookout for that. Button And that’s a COMPLETE look at the treat trails you can experience during this special event! Don’t forget to grab some candy too. Cauldron of candy! Want to learn more about Oogie Boogie Bash?
