Disney’s Magical Express is being discontinued on January 1st, 2022. Disney’s Magical Express The free airport transportation service will be no longer, but don’t worry! There’s still a similar way to get from Orlando International Airport to Disney World. Mears, the company that runs Magical Express, will still be offering a transportation service. But, it won’t be free. Mears Connect is the new service that will begin, conveniently, on January 1st, 2022! You can book reservations for transportation right now. And pricing has also been released. Mears bus Mears will have two different levels of transportation you can book. The first is Standard, which is shared, uses large vehicles (buses), and has monitored wait times. The second is Premium, which has a limited wait time and direct service. ©Mears Transportation Here’s a look at introductory prices for both services: ©Mears Transportation After selecting which service you want, you move on to enter your resort and flight information. ©Mears Transportation We found a flight on January 1st, 2022 to show you as an example and picked Disney’s Riviera Resort as our drop-off and pick-up location. And then, we discovered a very weird glitch. When selecting standard service for one adult, our total came out to $300 round trip instead of the listed $32 from Mears! ©Mears Transportation That’s more than even the premium service is listed for! We tried looking at just a one-way trip with the same date, flight details, and resort and it did the same thing! Our fare was listed at $150 instead of $16. ©Mears Transportation But then, when we changed our resort to Disney’s Yacht Club, it went down to $16. So strange! ©Mears Transportation We’re not sure what’s going on with that, but we’re pretty sure it’s some sort of glitch, because the round trip premium service fare is being shown as $200 (which is what Mears listed it as), and that includes 4 passengers compared to the 1 we were putting in for standard service! ©Mears Transportation Hopefully, we get some answers on that or it gets worked out soon! So you might see pricing changes based on your flight, date, and resort. But again, this could just be a glitch as standard pricing is listed as $16 one way and $32 for round trip. Now, remember that these are introductory rates, which Mears is advertising as being a way to save money if you book now, so these probably won’t stay the same price moving forward. We’ll keep an eye out for more info, so stay tuned to DFB for updates!

There’s also Premium, which has a limited wait time and direct service. Orlando International Airport Note that pricing may vary based on date, number of people, and location. But here’s what introductory pricing looks like for the service: ©Mears Transportation We did put in some dates and locations and saw much higher prices. So just make a note on the potential pricing variations.

Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is not happening this year, but it’s being replaced by Disney After Hours BOO Bash, which will start on August 10th. The events are preeeetty different from each other, so be aware before you but a ticket to attend!

Let’s start with restaurants: Pizzafari in Animal Kingdom reopened on August 2nd with some new menu items. Toledo at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort and Yachtsman Steakhouse at Disney’s Yacht Club will both be reopening on August 5th, so you can grab yourself some Spanish tapas or a nice big steak. And Columbia Harbour House in Magic Kingdom is also returning on August 5th for all you seafood lovers! Columbia Harbour House As for attractions, Monster’s, Inc. Laugh Floor will be returning on August 8th in Magic Kingdom and Turtle Talk with Crush will be reopening on August 21st in EPCOT!

See Wonderful World of Animation Fireworks are BACK at Hollywood Studios!! The Wonderful World of Animation show returned on August 1st! Wonderful World of Animation The show, which debuted in 2019, is mainly projections of clips from animated Disney movies on the Chinese Theater! You’ll see your favorite Disney Princesses and those scary Disney villains, along with characters from Pixar films. The show’s main character, of course, is Mr. Mickey Mouse! Wonderful World of Animation The show also includes some fireworks! We’re just glad some sort of nighttime show is back in Hollywood Studios after it seemed like they were forgotten when Happily Ever After and EPCOT: Forever returned! Click here to read more about Wonderful World of Animation! Watch Firework Shows Before They’re Gone Forever Speaking of Happily Ever After and EPCOT: Forever — we recently found out that the shows are scheduled to close at the end of September, like…FOREVER. We did know that EPCOT: Forever would be leaving us because it’s just a temporary show while Disney prepares for their new permanent show, Harmonious, which premieres October 1st. EPCOT Forever And we knew that Happily Ever After would be replaced by the new Disney Enchantment in October for Disney World’s 50th-anniversary celebration, but we didn’t know it would be gone for GOOD! Don’t go!!! EPCOT Forever will officially close on September 28th and Happily Ever After will close on September 29th, so August is the perfect time to go and see these shows before they “sparkle into Disney history” as Disney said. Click here to read more about Happily Ever After closing forever! Go to ECOPT’s Food and Wine Festival EPCOT’s Food and Wine Festival started in July, so it’s now in full swing! This is a great time to go and try out all the food booths before crowds pour in for Disney’s 50th anniversary. EPCOT Food and Wine Plus there are several NEW booths you gotta try, like the Swanky Saucy Swine that made us enjoy pig ear salad (yeah, we said PIG EARS!) or Brew-Wing, where there’s a beer flight AND a cider flight (and wings, of course). Pig Ear Salad! Also new is The Noodle Exchange, which we actually enjoyed despite it being 90 degrees outside, and Rotunda Bistro, where we got to eat Caviar for under $7!!! Noodle Exchange Bowls And we HAVE to tell you about the new Tangierine Cafe: Flavor of Medina where an unexpected item made our Best of the Fest list! SO pretty! There are also returning booths like Hawaii, Mexico, and France that, once again, have knocked it out of the PARK! Although, there is some heated debate among our team on whether one item at the France booth is great or terrible. Click here to read our Best of the Fest list for EPCOT’s 2021 Food and Wine Festival! Take Advantage of Extended Park Hours Last but not least, the best way to experience ALL of the things we’ve previously mentioned is with the extended park hours around Disney World! Many of the park closing times have been extended for August, so you have more time to frolic around make magical memories! Cinderella Castle Magic Kingdom extended its closing hours on August 1st-9th and the 15th to 10PM instead of the previous 9PM closing. Tomorrowland! Hollywood Studios is now open until 9PM for ALL of August — It was previously closing at 8PM. That one extra hour will definitely give you more opportunities for your Rise of the Resistance boarding group to be called! Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge Animal Kingdom will now close at 8PM instead of 7PM on August 7th, 14th, 15th, and 21st. Pandora at night And EPCOT’s evening hours have been extended Friday through Sunday each week. The park will be open from 11AM-10PM (as opposed to 9PM) on August 1st, 6th, 7th, 8th, 13th, 14th, 15th, 20th, 21st, 22nd, 27th, 28th, and 29th!

Hey DFB fam! Galaxy’s Edge in Disney’s Hollywood Studios Today’s been a bit wild with all the new details about the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser coming out! While we’re thinking about Star Wars in Disney World, we thought we’d stop by Disney’s Hollywood Studios to visit Galaxy’s Edge and see what’s new there and in the rest of the park! Food is, of course, our first priority, so we’re gonna start with an important update about the eats in Hollywood Studios! Hollywood Studios Food Update If you’re walking down Sunset Boulevard, you’ll notice that one counter-service restaurant is finally open again: Catalina Eddie’s! It’s back! This spot has pizza, salads, and breadsticks, along with a couple of kids’ menu items and dessert options! Click Here to See Our Review of the Reopened Catalina Eddie’s! To be totally real with you guys — this is not our most favorite spot. It’s fine for a snack or if you’re hungry and just want some food, but it’s probably not the best food you can find in the parks! The spread For that, you might want to try the Cobb Salad at Hollywood Brown Derby or maybe a Ronto Wrap at Ronto Roasters in Galaxy’s Edge! Click Here to See Our Ultimate Guide to Eating in Disney’s Hollywood Studios! Now let’s check out what new merchandise we can find around the Studios! Hollywood Studios Merchandise Update There was a lot going on with new merchandise in Hollywood Studios! To start out, we found these new pins in the Dark Room gift shop! New Pins in the Dark Room There’s a limited-edition “Artfully Evil” pin with a Jafar theme, including his Golden Scarab Beetle, cobras, and lamp patterns.

After our shopping spree, we walked around to take a look at some ride times and crowds in the parks! Ride Times and Crowds Starting near the entrance, we stopped at Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway, located in the Chinese Theatre! Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway Wait Time The wait time for this ride was 55 minutes! The line for this one can get really hot later in the day because most of it is outside. So if it’s on your must-ride list, you may want to hit it earlier in the morning or in the evening! We turned and went down Sunset Boulevard next, where we saw the Tower of Terror! Tower of Terror Wait Time The Tower of Terror line was 50 minutes! Also, the sign for the ride’s wait time was back to normal (it went a little bit crazy last week!)! Finally, we stopped by one of the most popular roller coasters in this park: Slinky Dog Dash in Toy Story Land! Slinky Dog Dash Wait Time The wait time for this ride was a whopping 100 minutes!

As you may have seen in Foodie News, there’s new mouthwatering magic this summer at the Walt Disney World Resort with the debut of our Disney Family Night Dinner experiences. And today, we’ve ordered up even more terrific tidbits to share on these tasty, take-out meals for everyone to enjoy.http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/DisneyParks/~4/6EsRXkLRyPoView the full article

It has been a Star Wars day filled with lots of news! Sublight Lounge ©Disney Today Disney made several announcements about the highly anticipated Star Wars hotel, aka the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser, and we’re going over some of the biggest new details we learned! We’ve covered pricing and dining, but what about some of the smaller details? We’ve had LOTS of questions about the Star Wars hotel and today we have some answers! Arrival Time Disney has announced that guests should arrive between 1:00 and 4:00PM to “board” the Halcyon (aka enter the Galactic Starcruiser hotel). ©Disney Disney’s sample itinerary began as early as 1:00PM, so it might be wise to plan for an early as possible arrival within that window of time! Read a sample itinerary for the Galactic Starcruiser stay here! Parking Valet parking is included in the price of your stay! This little perk will certainly add some convenience to your stay aboard the Galactic Starcruiser. ©Disney We aren’t sure if valet parking is a thing in space, but we won’t turn it down at Disney World! Check out Disney World’s first Star Wars hotel commercial! Swimming Pools There will be NO swimming pool on the Galactic Starcruiser. It makes sense for the immersive experience Disney is curating, as a pool in space isn’t super practical. Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser Halcyon Disney assures guests that the packed itinerary during the two-night stay will be filled with so many activities that you probably won’t miss being able to swim! Read more about dining at the Star Wars hotel here! Rooms According to Disney, “The starcruiser features 100 well-appointed cabins and suites, each one radiating an atmosphere of elegance, style, comfort and exclusivity.” That’s a super small amount of people! ©Disney We know that there will be three room options available, known as the Standard Cabin, the Galaxy Class Suite, and the Grand Captain Suite. We anticipate that the very limited rooms will make reservations extremely competitive. Read more about the Galactic Starcruiser rooms here! Databand An exclusive Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser databand, aka a MagicBand, is included in the cost of your stay. MagicBands The databand will be used by guests for “access point” sensors on the ship. It will likely feature a special design only for hotel guests! Read what’s included in your Star Wars hotel stay here! Reservations and Tickets Admission to Disney’s Hollywood Studios is included in the price, and guests of the Galactic Starcruiser will not need park reservations either. The sample itinerary also includes ride reservations for Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance and Millennium Falcon: Smuggler’s Run during the visit to Batuu in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. Rise of the Resistance Rise of the Resistance still utilizes a virtual queue system and can at times be challenging to secure a boarding pass. If staying aboard the Galactic Starcruiser guarantees a ride on Rise — that’s another great perk! Learn more about Rise of the Resistance here! Light Sabers The lightsaber training experience will have an age limit. Guests must be at least 7 years old to participate. ©Disney This is important to note so that families with children younger than 7 do not board the Galactic Starcruiser expecting their kids to participate in the lightsaber experience only to be disappointed. Click here for more info about the lightsaber age requirement! We’re glad to have some answers about staying on board the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser!

Disney’s Yacht Club Resort The Yacht Club resort is home to dining locations like Ale & Compass and Yachtsman Steakhouse, which is set to open on August 5th!

Over the past few months, Disney has slowly rehired more Cast Members, opened more stores and restaurants, and brought back more entertainment offerings across the parks and resorts. Parking lot in EPCOT Still, the Disney parking trams have not returned to Walt Disney World. Although the parking trams remain out of operation, we can’t help but wonder if they might be coming back soon! No SIGN of the parking trams (get it?) This Disney World job posting for a Parking Operations Cast Member seems to suggest that Disney is looking to expand their parking crew. Could this mean the return of parking trams?! ©Disney Our poor, tired feet can only take so much walking every day, and those trams were a great way to rest after a long day in the parks! The parking trams may be empty but our hearts are full of hope! As you may know from experience, all those extra steps can add up quickly!
