Disney4me Posted 2 hours ago Report Posted 2 hours ago I’m sick of it; I’m not doing it anymore… I’m CHANGING the way I go to Disney World! Magic Kingdom I recently reached out to the Millennials on our team, and that’s basically what they told me! They’re reaching an age where they’re ready to change their vacation habits, particularly when it comes to visiting Disney World. Let’s see what they’re giving up! Vacationing for the Social Media Feed First of all, Millennials have decided they’re no longer vacationing for the social media feed! Those trips to Disney World aren’t all about getting the perfect picture or doing everything a TikToker told you was a “must-do.” Instead, the trips are now all about doing what YOU want to do. Eat what you want and do what you want! Basically, Millennials are no longer choosing rides, snacks, or park outfits just because someone else told them to. If they want to do the least-popular attractions or be inefficient with their time or wear something that definitely went out of style years ago…they’re going to do it! Why? Because THEY are the ones paying for their own vacations. It doesn’t matter what anyone else thinks. Clinging to the Disney World of Their Youth Millennials have also decided (or at least some of them have decided) that it’s time to stop clinging to the Disney World of their youth. Sure, nostalgia has its place, and it’s great for looking back on old photos and being reminded of what once was, but as we’ve all learned over time, Disney World is constantly changing. Sunset Boulevard It doesn’t do anyone much good to cling tightly to a Disney World that no longer exists. If you do, it’ll be SO much harder to enjoy your Disney trips in the here and now! So my coworkers have shared they’re ready to give up on calling Hollywood Studios “MGM Studios,” lamenting constantly about rides that are gone, or complaining about changes. It would be a shame to make yourself miserable when you’re in “The Most Magical Place on Earth,” especially if you’re there to make memories with your own kids! Forcing Themselves to Do Too Much And finally, it’s okay to admit when Disney World is just too much, and Millennials have learned that lesson. Twelve-hour park days without a sip of water in sight are in the past, and Millennials are prepared to stand up and say, “I don’t have to wake up at the crack of dawn every day and rope drop to have a good time!” They want naps, they want rest days, and they’re not nearly as keen on drinking around the world as they once were. Crowds on Main Street, U.S.A. Millennials are also ready to skip the rides that they find overrated and uncomfortable. Back hurt after Expedition Everest or Space Mountain? On the skip list! Hate soggy socks and wet underwear? Kali River Rapids is a no-go. Similar to the previous point, there’s no reason to make yourself miserable in Disney World on purpose.

Worry less about what others think and what used to be, and simply have a good time on vacation. To see what we like to do every time we’re in Disney World, check out the YouTube video below.
