Even though Disney World reopened to guests almost a year ago, there are still lots of experiences that remain different. Fairfax Fare Many restaurants and hotels have reopened since July or have set reopening dates for later this year, but there are a few that remain closed. Today, we noticed some menu changes at a closed quick service restaurant in Disney’s Hollywood Studios! We’re talking about Fairfax Fare, located on Sunset Boulevard! Although the location has been listed as “temporarily closed” since Disney World’s reopening, the menu has received a huge revamp. This location was known for Tex-Mex and Southwest flavors, but many entrees have been pulled from the menu including Empanadas, a Pulled Pork Sandwich, and a Fajita Platter! These have now been replaced with hot dogs. There are 4 hot dogs on the menu — the California BLTA Dog ($11.49), the Pretzel Dog ($11.49), the Truffle Bacon Macaroni & Cheese Hot Dog ($11.49), or the All-Beef Quarter-pounder Hot Dog ($9.49)! Also new to the menu is the plant-based Chicago-style “Hot Dog” Salad. ©Disney While Tres Leches Verrine used to be available at this location, two additions have arrived on the dessert menu. The first is the Strawberry Shortcake Verrine made of Vanilla Cake with Fresh Strawberries, Whipped Cream, Strawberry Crisp Pearls, and Dehydrated Strawberries for $5.99. The other dessert is the Snacking Sandwich Cookie which is made of Fluffy Vanilla Marshmallow sandwiched between Pretzel and Potato Chip Shortbread Cookies covered in Dark Chocolate and Sea Salt for $4.99. ©Disney Both of the sides on the menu are new as well! There are now Parmesan Chips for $4.49 and Pickled Vegetables for $3.99. ©Disney Several beers have been added to the menu as well. This includes 3 Daughters Beach Blonde Ale ($10), Bold City Duke’s Cold Nose Brown Ale ($10), Kona Big Wave Golden Ale ($10), Tampa Bay Reef Donkey APA ($10), and Bud Light Lager ($8), all served as 20 ounces. The two cocktails are additions to the menu too! There is the Red Stag Black Cherry Bourbon Lemonade with Jim Bean Red Stag Black Cherry Bourbon mixed with Minute Maid Lemonade for $13, and the Spiked Punch which features Captain Morgan Original Spiced Rum for $11. ©Disney Although this is an nearly a whole new menu for Fairfax Fare, the restaurant does NOT have a reopening date. As soon as it is announced we will let you know, but in the meantime, stay tuned to DFB for the latest food updates in Disney World!

One of our favorite Disney souvenirs is mugs. Because here’s the thing — they’re useful. You can use them for beverages (obviously), but they also make good places to put your pens, keep change in, keep other items in, etc. You can’t have too many Disney mugs! Welcome to Germany We’ve seen some super cool ones recently, too, including some awesome Starbucks Star Wars mugs, a matching family mug collection, a very happy Bao Mug, and a very cool Dumbo mug! But the mug we saw today at Disney World is all about a certain German festival that reminds us of beer and food — a particular kind of food: Brats! And it’s very punny with “Don’t be a brat” on it with a classic German brat on a bun. The handle even looks like a Bratwurst! Bratty mug How fun is that? It’s also got “it’s Oktoberfest” on it, along with the “Germany Pavilion” and “EPCOT World Showcase.” Which is EXACTLY where we found it. You can grab it now for $19.99.

Since Disney World’s theme parks reopened, temperature screenings have been required to enter the parks. Temperature screenings eventually became required for other things too like restaurants at Disney World’s hotels and more. Health Signage Over the past few months, we’ve shared the details about a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report that indicates temperature checks may be ineffective at identifying COVID-19 cases, a statement from one local official indicating that temperature checks are not recommended in Florida’s Orange County, and changes that have been made with temperature checks at other theme parks. And now we’ve got a BIG update about some changes coming soon to Disney World’s temperature checks. At the moment, temperature checks continue to be required at the Disney World theme parks and other Disney World locations. But, soon that will be changing. Disney World’s website now notes that they will be phasing “out onsite temperature screenings at Walt Disney World Resort for Cast Members beginning May 8 and Guests on May 16.” Temperature screening The Disney website notes that Disney has “considered guidance from public health authorities, government agencies, and [their] own team of health and safety experts” since the parks reopened. Disney said that they are making this change “following the advice of the CDC and [their] local health officials.” They also note that they “will continue to follow the guidance of health and safety leaders going forward and most importantly encourage people to get vaccinated.” You can see the full message from Disney’s website below. ©Disney As we mentioned briefly above, recently Dr. Pino, the Director of the Florida Department of Health in Orange County, stated that the use of temperature checks is not recommended right now. Dr. Pino noted that while temperature checks create a sense of security, they essentially don’t make a difference. Specifically, Dr. Pino said, “It’s a lot of resources for business[es] and other places just to have one person taking temperatures. So, again, temperature control measures are not recommended at this point.” Temperature Checks Late last year, the CDC conducted a study to see if temperature checks were successful in detecting COVID-19, and determined that “Symptom-based screening programs are ineffective because of the nonspecific clinical presentation of COVID-19 and asymptomatic cases.” Temperature Screening Essentially, what the CDC study noted is that a person could be positive for COVID-19 and not have any symptoms (either because they are asymptomatic or perhaps pre-symptomatic), and so a symptom-based screening method (like a temperature check and symptom-based questionnaire) likely would not be able to identify that person as positive and screen them out. Click here to read more about that CDC study. Recently, we did see some other theme parks in the U.S. remove their temperature screening requirements. We’ve also previously taken a look at whether Disney World’s temperature checks are accurate and the science behind them. Keep in mind, Disney has said they will “phase out” the screenings beginning on May 8th for Cast Members and May 16th for Disney World guests, but they have not shared any other specific details at this time. We’ll continue to look for more updates on this situation and let you know what we find. Click here to see 3 things that are back to “normal” in Disney World.

As the situation with the COVID-19 pandemics, we’ve seen various changes made and new guidelines released. Cruising Could Return Soon! One big industry that has yet to fully return since the start of the pandemic is the cruising industry. Recently, we shared that cruises may be able to begin sailing again from the U.S. this summer and now the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (“CDC”) has issued some updated guidance. According to USA Today, the CDC released new guidance today for cruise ships with “instructions for trial voyages with volunteer passengers” which must take place before they can set sail with paying passengers under the CDC’s framework. USA Today notes that the CDC now states that with the release of this guidance, “cruise ship operators now have all the necessary requirements and recommendations they need to start simulated voyages before resuming restricted passenger voyages and apply for a COVID-19 conditional sailing certificate to begin sailing with restricted passenger voyages.” Disney Dream Recommendations and requirements are subject to change in the future, however, so that is something cruise line operators must keep in mind. According to USA Today, cruise ships that require at least 95% of its passengers to be vaccinated, and require at least 98% of their crew members to be vaccinated, will be able to skip the test sailing requirement. Those cruise lines will be able to go straight to starting sailings with their paying passengers. Get Ready for Some Pool Time! For those cruises that undergo the simulation phase, test cruises must have at least 10% passenger capacity, all volunteer passengers have to be at least 18 years old or older, and all volunteer passengers must either be fully vaccinated or they must provide “written documentation from a healthcare provider or self-certified statement that the volunteer passenger has no medical conditions that would place the volunteer at high risk for severe COVID-19 as determined through CDC guidance.” All volunteer passengers also have to agree to certain COVID-19 testing requirements. Simulated voyages have to be between 2-7 days in length. Animator’s Palate on Disney Wonder The CDC outlines a number of activities that have to be simulated onboard including onboard activities (like seating and meal service at dining and entertainment venues), recreational activities that the cruise intends to offer for future paying, restricted passenger voyages (like casinos, spa services, etc.), private-island shore excursions (if any are planned to be offered during future paying, restricted passenger voyages), and more. Animator’s Palate Food Cruise lines must complete at least one simulation for each ship which they intend to use for restricted passenger voyages, unless the cruise line will be meeting those vaccination requirements that allow them to skip the testing phase. According to USA Today, however, “it is unclear when cruise operators will be able to begin test sailings. “ USA Today indicates that a CDC spokesperson has said cruise lines could start offering passenger voyages from the U.S. in mid-July, depending on their compliance with the CDC’s framework. Disney Cruise Line Terminal You can read the full CDC guidance here. Right now, Disney has canceled all U.S. cruises through June, and select cruises are canceled through October. We’ll continue to keep an eye out for more updates regarding cruising and let you know what we find! Click here to see everything announced for the NEW Disney Wish Cruise Ship!

The calendar might not say it’s summer yet, but the heat has us saying that spring is certainly over. The Coca Cola Store is so cool And Disney World certainly agrees with us because we’re already seeing summer merchandise making an appearance, and we’ve already tried some great summertime drinks, including a Cherry Blossom drink, a super neon drink, and a boozy Kakamora float. It’s enough to make Olaf SING WITH JOY! But today, we may have hit the pinnacle of summer drinks, and yes, it DOES have “summer” in its name: the Summer Strawberry Lemonade. Doesn’t that just look refreshing? This is Simply Lemonade with Strawberry, Muddled Strawberries, Tito’s Vodka, and Elderflower Cordial. Can you say summer in a cup? And it’s got a great summer taste, too — a little more tart than sweet, and a WHOLE lot of refreshing. YUM It’s decorated with a Sliced Strawberry, Sliced Lemon, and a Pretty Flower. We really couldn’t taste the booze in ours, so if you’re someone who prefers a bit more kick, feel free to ask for an extra shot of vodka! This is a great light and refreshing drink — think a Strawberry-flavored Moscow Mule minus the ginger beer. So pretty! So if you’re needing a revitalizing drink on a hot Florida day, you can grab this one over at the Coca-Cola Rooftop Beverage Bar at Disney Springs. It’s available now for $15. Do note that this is the drink of the month, so it’s not expected to stick around for long. And as always, we’ll keep you updated on any other new drinks that pop up at Disney World!

What time is it? Snack time! Let’s talk about FOOD. To be fair, ANY time can be snack time at Disney World, but that’s just because there are so many delicious treats to try. Here at DFB, we’ve tasted TONS of them over the years to bring you our honest reviews, and today, we’re continuing that tradition. Let’s head on over to Disney Springs to try out a new treat made specifically for an upcoming movie! Today at Vivoli il Gelato in Disney Springs, we spotted this new sign out front! If there’s a new Cruella-themed treat, then you just know that we have to try it. We can’t resist a new treat! We went inside to order and spotted the cookies all lined up — ready to be made into yummy gelato sandwiches. They’re pretty big cookies, but this treat isn’t cheap either. You can order the Cruella D’Wich for $11 each! Those are BIG cookies. This sandwich is made with chocolate chip gelato between a s’mores cookie and a sugar cookie with red sprinkles. We can definitely see where they got that Cruella de Vil theming with the red, white, and black. This thing is FILLED with gelato goodness. If you want to pick one of these treats up for yourself, make sure to eat it FAST. In the time we took pictures it was melting rapidly! We’ve already got a dripping problem! However, it was still just as delicious! The cookies were nice and soft which made it easier to eat. The s’mores cookie was our favorite part, and we think that those of you who love chocolate baked goods will really appreciate it. That s’mores cookie is really spectacular! The gelato itself is made with chipped pieces of chocolate, not traditional chocolate chips. And be careful when holding it — not only is that gelato melting fast, but those red sprinkles may stain your hands! Watch out for those red sprinkles! All in all, this treat is definitely big enough to share, especially considering the price tag. And note that Annual Passholder and Disney Vacation Club discounts are available.

A Central Florida man who posts videos to TikTok is nearing 1 million followers in the months following posts that showed him drinking water from fountains and other water features around Disney World’s property that he says led to his firing from his job at the park, and now being given a lifetime ban. Meanwhile, some other Orlando theme parks are posting to social media their stances about the stunt. View the full article A Central Florida man who posts videos to TikTok is nearing 1 million followers in the months following posts that showed him drinking water from fountains and other water features around Disney World’s property that he says led to his firing from his job at the park, and now being given a lifetime ban. Meanwhile, some other Orlando theme parks are posting to social media their stances about the stunt. Jason Jeter, who posts to TikTok as showmelovejete, and has a presence on other social media platforms, was already popular for videos he posted while employed at the theme park up until mid-March. On March 18, he had about 250,000 followers on TikTok when he posted a video that said he was fired from his job citing that management was not happy about videos he had posted in the week prior. One of those included shots of him trying water from fountains at Disney Springs - not drinking fountains, but the large landscape features around the shopping district. Most of the videos showed him dipping a water bottle into a fountain, taking a sip and spitting the water out, giving it a rating on a 1 to 10 scale while also intermixed with normal water options like a cup from the Coca-Cola store. Of note, water from fountains in general isn’t potable, and should not be consumed. On March 20, he posted a video saying, “Getting fired from Disney might have been the best thing that has ever happened to me,” citing that his TikTok audience had grown to more than 430,000 followers in just two days, and he had several offers for new employment. In the six weeks since, he has posted several videos including more in the water-drinking theme including at Disney’s resorts. On May 4, he posted video set to sad music saying he had been banned for life by Disney, showing a trespass warning from the Orange County Sheriff’s Office. The official social media accounts for SeaWorld, Universal and Legoland have made posts referencing the water-drinking videos. Legoland Florida’s post said, “Our water is made for watersports and not for drinking...just sayin’....” While Universal Orlando posted a shot of Ripsaw Falls with the text, “PSA: Made for splashing, not drinking.” And SeaWorld Orlando posted images of margaritas for Cinco de Mayo while replying to their own post, “Side note, these taste a lot better than fountain water. Just saying.”

Changes at Disney parks aren't about wokeness, they're about the parks evolving to meet the company's own expectations for how it treats guests. View the full article In this 2007 file photo, the character Brer Rabbit, from the movie, "Song of the South," is depicted near the entrance to the Splash Mountain ride in the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World. (John Raoux/AP) Disneyland in California unlocked its gates on April 30. A second opening day carries much symbolic opportunity — indeed, the company tried to maximize that potential last summer, scheduling the (failed) reopening for the auspicious date of July 17, the park’s anniversary. What will the company do with all that promise? During Disneyland’s yearlong closure, the world has changed. And whether from a sense of social justice or financial shrewdness, Disney is changing with it. The company announced more inclusive cast member appearance guidelines and the removal of outdated, racist imagery from two hallmark attractions, the Jungle Cruise and Splash Mountain. Predictably, there has been some pushback. A recent op-ed in the Orlando Sentinel complained about “wokeness” ruining the parks, maligning among other things the Jungle Cruise’s removal of the Trader Sam animatronic character (and, implicitly, the addition to the backstory of a female character of color) as “a mood killer.” Shannon McHugh, assistant professor University of Massachusetts Boston (Handout / Courtesy photo) Now a professor of gender history and participatory fan culture, I was once a devoted cast member, guiding the five-hour Keys to the Kingdom tour in the Magic Kingdom. I can tell you that historical evidence demonstrates that there is no dismantlement of Disney values afoot. Rather, the company’s recent decisions are completely in line with tradition. Disney has been accused of drawing political realities into immersive spaces. I’ll momentarily set aside that doing nothing about, for example, a “take a wench for a bride” auction would in fact be a political decision; or that Walt Disney never eschewed politics, having volunteered to testify before the House Un-American Activities Committee. Let us simply concede that, yes, world-building is a trademark of the Disney parks. But immersion is only one piece of a longstanding, meticulous philosophy of experiential entertainment. For over 60 years, cast-member conduct has centered on the Four Keys: safety, courtesy, show, and efficiency. These are the core of training, and they are hierarchized. Knowing this, even the most proudly un-woke patron should concede that making a guest feel welcome (courtesy) actually does take priority over immersion (show). Another feature that could disrupt illusion: ADA-accessible ramps. As a tour guide, I took guests on the Haunted Mansion; but wheelchairs and scooters could not access the main entrance. Accommodating these guests does momentarily impede show, but this is not only courteous, it is the only safe solution. Should Disney be condemned for cowing to political pressures? I love Disney World, but wokeness is ruining the experience | Commentary APR 23, 2021 AT 9:00 AM Even more unfounded is the logical consequence of anti-change arguments: that the parks should never evolve. But Disney has always remade its attractions. In the 1960s, beloved Imagineer Marc Davis was tasked by Walt himself with overhauling an already-stale Jungle Cruise. Trader Sam was not even part of the original attraction. Despite recent handwringing over Dr. Seuss, stewards of intellectual property have long made changes to maintain relevance. When Disney’s 1940 Fantasia was released to video in 1991, editors quietly expunged horrifyingly racist images of two Black characters, including a “pickaninny centaurette.” Disney scholar John Culhane sagely observed that these depictions were never the point, and that retaining them would have been the real distraction from the work. This is also just the way of art: when Shakespeare moved Romeo and Juliet from the Middle East to fair Verona, nobody accused him of being political. In short, there is no parks “canon” under fire. What these naysayers imagine themselves to be preserving never existed at all. Splash Mountain only opened in 1989, when it was constructed from the flotsam of the mostly-forgotten America Sings. These parks are built on progress. Guests arriving at Disneyland and the Magic Kingdom pass beneath a plaque inviting them to “enter the world of yesterday, tomorrow and fantasy.” The spirit has never been to stand still. Of course, this brawl with Disney isn’t actually about rides. It’s about an ongoing mission to preserve a white-centered vision of society by illegitimately laying claim to America’s most popular spaces of entertainment and idealism — even as not only the so-called liberal media, but also the most popular Disney fan sites, promote these changes. I, like many others, wish the company were so aggressively political. Realistically, I think the best we can hope for is that Disney continues to cautiously adapt its ersatz reality to be palatable to as many market demographics as possible. And yet I cannot help but hope for better. In 1955, on that first Disneyland opening day, Walt Disney declared: To all who come to this happy place: Welcome. Disneyland is your land. What if, finally, the company were to give those words the power they deserve? Shannon McHugh is an assistant professor at the University of Massachusetts Boston.

One thing you might notice about Disney World is that there are a LOT of robots. ©Walt Disney Imagineering R&D Inc. When you’re on the rides you’ll see animatronics galore and robots have even been known to roam the park. Remember Push the Talking Trash Can? The company is regularly making strides in robotics technologies and now they’ve come up with a new invention! Disney recently filed a patent for “Eye Contact Sensing and Control for Robotics Characters,” and that’s just what it sounds like! This tech lets robots make eye contact with you just like a person would. ©Disney The system uses a light source from the eye of the robot to locate a human face. From there, the system generates the robot’s eye movement based on the location of the target human face so that the robot keeps eye contact with a human. ©Walt Disney Imagineering R&D Inc. This patent certainly seems to be another piece in the puzzle of robotic characters that can directly interact with humans. In the theme parks, that could mean Cast Members or directly with guests. ©Walt Disney Imagineering R&D Inc. Last year, we spotted a patent for a robot actor that can balance and move on its own. Then, Walt Disney Imagineering teased a life-size Baby Groot robot. Perhaps this tech will help Groot and other robotic characters interact with humans realistically. ©Walt Disney Imagineering R&D Inc. Regardless, it would be very cool to make eye contact with a robot in the Disney parks or beyond! As always, stay tuned to DFB for the latest Disney tech updates!

Planning on taking the Disney Skyliner soon? Disney Skyliner This form of transportation offers a handy way to travel from EPCOT and Disney’s Hollywood Studios to the nearby resorts. Not to mention, you get a great view of property from above! But if you’re planning your flight for tomorrow, you’ll want to be aware of a change to the schedule.

A Cast Member confirmed that the EPCOT line will run from 12PM-11PM on Thursday, May 6th, even though EPCOT opens at 11AM. ©Disney If you’re traveling to EPCOT tomorrow, you’ll want to keep this in mind! Disney offers alternative bus transportation when the Skyliner is not running, so you’ll be able to take that route instead to get to the park.

Disney World has a lot of iconic hotels. Grand Floridian But there are some great options that aren’t owned by Disney! One of those is the Four Seasons Resort Orlando, situated just minutes away from the parks. And believe it or not, it just sold for some MAJOR cash. According to the Orlando Business Journal, Host Hotels & Resorts Inc. bought the Four Seasons for $610 million in cash from Four Seasons Hotels & Resort, Dune Real Estate Partners, and Silverstein Properties Inc. That’s a cost of $1.4 million per room! ©Four Seasons Resort Orlando at Walt Disney World Typically, the average cost per room for luxury hotels is just $675,000 — and that includes land, build-out, fees, and more. So this $1.4 million price tag per room is HUGE! ©Four Seasons Resort Orlando at Walt Disney World James F. Risoleo, president and CEO of Host Hotels & Resorts Inc., explained that ““Four Seasons Resort Orlando at Walt Disney World Resort is a truly iconic and irreplaceable property that is well-positioned to benefit from significant demand as the pandemic subsides and the 18-month celebration of Walt Disney World’s 50th anniversary begins in October.” Luxury hotels are expected to be the first to bounce back from the pandemic, and experts predict Orlando sites in particular will be in high demand. ©Four Seasons Resort Orlando at Walt Disney World Hotel stats in the Orlando area are already improving. The average hotel occupancy rate in March 2021 was 57.8%, which is a 40% increase from March 2020. Those numbers are only expected to increase further.
