Disney is NOTHING of what Disney used to be. There’s nothing magical about the place anymore.
FRRR!!! The most you wait at universal is 1 hour in the cool, if it's outside they have fans spraying a mist of water to make sure you stay cool. Universal is amazing❤❤❤
We used to go every other year, but since Covid not anymore. It has got too expensive, it has lost its Magic as all they want is your money. They have added on too many extra costs that used to be free.
When I first went to Disney World in 1975. the cost for a 'ticket book', was $7.95, including admission!
That included enough tickets to ride for the whole day! The "General admission" price to just walk
around the park, but it also included a few attractions, was $3.00! Honest!
@@rongendron8705 Wow now this is unbelievable 😮
Suddenly, it doesn't sound so crazy that people claim Covid was intentionally done so businesses could hike up prices on EVERYTHING. It has been that way ever since. I can barely afford anything: fuel, groceries, etc. We never had any of these issues before the "pandemic."
It’s also filled with drug addled liberals
The main thing that puts me off is all the planning Disney trips now feel more like a military operation than a fun holiday you have to book months ahead for restaurant plan out times for all the rides use genie + ect it just doesn't seem fun to me anymore
well said
that's ir. prices are what they are. for several reasons. renovations and climate and crowds were always there. but the whole military operation side of things is absolutely off-putting. it seems more frustrating and anxiety inducing than a fun day or week
True! 😢
I hundred percent agree! My daughter and I have been going every year for the past 6 years. She competes at ESPNs World's Cheer Competition. The planning of it all is insane! I hate the Disney Genie app.
That’s why a lot of people are going to universal Orlando instead of Disney.
I honestly enjoyed it this year. Went to all the parks on both ends and the Universal experience was a 10x better. If I had to pick just 1 or 2, I would definitely go back to Universal.
You been lately? It’s busier than I’ve ever seen it. Universal is also fun.
Just you wait for the new Universal Park: Epic Universe. 🎉 it'll blow disney out of the water. Hopefully it'll wake them up and work on their parks for better experiences.
@@MarissaFloro I'm so looking forward to that!
Universal isn't made for us fat folk I can't fit on half or more of their rides & I HATE roller coasters, so not much for me there. I recently went to Sea World, which is still somewhat fun, but again not doing the coasters & the animal shows are about nonexistent now thanks to PETA & other tree huggers ruining everything.
Anyone that’s planning a trip to Disney that reads this…. I’m going to do you a favor. Just save up some extra money for a plane ticket to go to Tokyo Disneyland. Such a better Disney experience and what the parks here in the states SHOULD still be. Also….their Fantasy Springs expansion opens in June and I’m willing to bet these new exclusive rides will be extremely impressive!
That's more than some extra money lol
Been to every Disney Park with the exception China; personal choice boycott. Nothing compares to Disneyland in CA. Every corner has Walt's touch and just so intimate. Unfortunatly...it is in CA!
I was in Disney Tokyo in November. The parades were fantastic, but it is extremely difficult to reserve a ticket in time for the best rides, like the haunted mansion, or the one of beauty and the beast. Unfortunately despite arriving early in the morning of all the rides I wanted to access, I was only able to get on the Splash Mountain. And I just hate that even to see the mascots you need to make a reservation in time, it was better when they moved freely around the park...also Disney Sea kind of sucks, the animatronics are good but the rides are extremely short, they are few, and I think the point of the park is more than anything to be like an imitation of a sad Europe, which as a half-Italian I found very unexciting...
@@kacklina We planned four days and we were done with everting in two. Quality was there, but yes the quantity was lacking and short as you said. Journey to Center of Earth was nice, but waaaaay too short and zero themed for "Disney".
@@alkraus8818 I am from NJ and always went to WDW but the first time I went to magic kingdom Disneyland I cried. I felt Walt there. But like you said, it’s in California! WDW to me has become a glorified six flags. The magic has been lost snd it’s devastating. I have a 1 year old grandson and he won’t have that same experience my son had in the early 2000’s. (I think it was even going down then but now fahgedaboudid.)
NOT the Disney of my childhood (57-71)…Walt is turning over in his grave. He wanted a place to bring his children and not owe the national debt to do it! In 1971 when I got married, my husband and I went to Disneyland on $20! This was entry, lunch, dinner and money left over. No parking fees. We had tickets left over, so next time we only needed to purchase an entry ticket and use our leftover A, B, C, D & E tickets. It’s absurd that a family of any size should need a loan or increase their credit limit to go to any Disney park (or even park their car). Simply AWFUL.
It's not just that the prices have gone up, but the quality of service had gone down. Even if the prices stay the same(adjust for inflation only), I would still not go. The parks are just too overcrowded. All you do is rub shoulders and feel like you're being herded like cattle. Plus, All you really do is just stare at your phone all day insted of enjoying the park.
The DVC Club buildings at the Polynesian look like they migrated over from The Contemporary. I don't know of any ancient Polynesian skyscrapers.
So glad someone commented this. That is what I have been thinking.
🤣😆🤣😆🤣
😂😂😂
Disney is no longer the Disney that Walt created.
He’d be mortified with how the bean counters/money grabbers have taken idiotic decisions totally against his original ideas 😔😔
Facts
They have to offset the billions they are loosing in their marvel movies LOL
tbh js get more moneys then
@@tstanley01exactly this and there streaming service which i don't know anyone that has it
@@n3wt Then you, your family and friends aren’t huge Disney fans. I have Disney plus and don’t regret it. You don’t know what you’re missing.
Miss it so much! The way Disney use to be 😭
It’s still fun
Same. Like how they gonna get rid of smoking sections.... just sad really
Me too
Not even just Disney…..everything in this world isn’t what it used to be sadly
The last time I went to disney, the app didn't exist
I’m from Orlando- let me tell you something- a secret- Ready? Disney Sucks! Period! Locals won’t go unless you get a free ticket. It’s the worst experience of all theme parks. It just has an international reputation. Put it this way, every time I go to Disney I think, why did I do this again?!
U sound gay
When I was a child, our family would sit down in front of the TV, with a bowl of popcorn and a Pepsi, and watch The Wonderful World of Walt Disney.
I wanted more than anything to visit the park in Florida but doubted I would ever be able to afford it.
In '91 I was stationed in Orlando, Florida as a Red Roper. Information Ticket & Tours (ITT) sold highly discounted tickets for families.
We were able to go, but lines for everything were 45 minutes or more for a ride. My son enjoyed it and had pictures taken with many of the characters.
The main drawback was the cost of parking & food. Hamburger, fries, & drink were $20 a head. Parking was another $15.
Since then, Disney suits have destroyed the park bit by bit every year since then. Now you have to earn 6 figures to even begin to afford to visit this park.
Walt Disney is most likely rolling in his grave as he designed his parks to be affordable to most people. Now it's only affordable to the RICH.
Thank You all for destroying a childhood dream ! ! !
Walt Disney designed those parks to make every last cent he could to finance films and other projects. He’d be loving the deals they’ve made for the companies in its portfolio. He may have said “make it affordable” to the press but behind closed doors him and the duck were diving in gold coins.
My wife works retail and I'm disabled and we've gone once a year since they reopened after covid, we're no where near rich, just no how to spend within our means. Breakfast hot pockets, sandwich for lunch, only meal we buy is a snack and dinner. Honestly, I went to Carowinds last year, and I spent more in a day there than I did a day at Disney, now I agree, it's nowhere near what Walt wanted as far as affordability, but 77,000+ employees paid over twice federal minimum wage at a minimum just in Florida, you can't expect McDonald's prices for food(which you can't get lunch for 2 people there without spending over $20 anymore) and $50 ticket prices. Infact, if going by number of employees paid compared to inflation (9.375x the employees * 27.07(calculated inflation of an original Disney ticket at $3.50), a disney ticket should cost around $250🤷♂️ using that same math, your hamburger, fries and drink in 1971 would be around $1, should cost about $72
You’re so right, read my post below. Walt is spinning!
@@lukeandlizunderrated comment. Sobering but kinda fair to a degree 👍
You know the Florida min wage is $13 going to $14 later this year and starting wage at Disney is $14.94, so not twice the min. wage. Of course during Covid they let go most of the employees, but paid the former CFO $15 million while the employees had to do food drives so they can eat. A lot of the employee jumped ship to Universal as they paid more then Disney, so just need to rework your math.
When you live close to Disney and know the employees you get the true scoop and not the company numbers.
Another incident I had in February at Disneyworld's Magic Kingdom-- I approached the popcorn cart, and the attendant was engaged in a conversation with what appeared to be her boss, a woman with a Caribbean accent, and they were talking about company related business as I stood there waiting to give my order. It was a while. The manager saw me standing there, and continued her casual conversation as I waited. Come on. That's terrible.
Another negative experience I had at WDW Magic Kingdom was at the front gate, I asked an employee with a clipboard, and wearing a vest, a 60's ish man with short cropped grey hair for directions to the monorail to return to the parking lot. He actually gave me the wrong directions! I walked quite a distance all the way to the other side of the entrance gate, but there was no monorail entrance there! So, a different employee told me no, it's where you were before. Why wouldn't an employee just say "I'm not sure, let me get some help."? So bizarre. So not Disney.
It's against the rules. They can't say idk. It can get them written. They are supposed to ask someone else if they don't know. But really you know how jobs are nowadays. He probably didn't have any one to ask. Not defending him because he should have figured it out instead of sending you the wrong way. But I don't think Disney pays a lot so...
I’m so glad that we had annual passes in the early 2000’s during our 3 daughters’ elementary/middle school years. As Florida residents, we went about 6-10 times a year, and our daughters got so savvy they “owned” all four parks, knowing what was best to do and when. Those times were golden!
Disney parks were a model for a by-gone era. Families are smaller. Pay checks are smaller. Vacations are smaller. A family vacation at Disney used to be a good deal but not anymore.
Great tips!!! You guys should do a packing video! Like what to bring and what not to bring!
AJ and team, I’m fairly old, and lived in California in the late 1970’s. I remember a news report that Disneyland was going to be closed for a whole day and night because the Saudi royal family had bought out the whole park so they could enjoy it without any other people there.
These are in addition to the daily closures that aren’t announced, and the ones you only find out about after you walk through the gate. This this has been going on for decades. Another reason why I don’t go to Disneyland anymore. Full price admission for only what’s left that they decided to have open that day only to wait in line for two or three rides. It’s not the experience I want to have.
We are from the U.K have been so many times since 1999.
A 14 day Disney pass for the price of 7 has been a fake advert for years. Surely Brits still don't get sucked in, by that fake advert. We used to be able to buy a 21 day Disney park pass in 2015 for less than 7 days of Parking at Disney in 2024 $30 per day . A joke!!!! . If you visit Disney Parks for 10 of the 14 days a pass offers, add $300 to your park pass costs for Parking.
Last year we were asked for $25 parking fee at the M.K. at 7.30 pm -- Park closes 10 p.m---. We turned the car around and drove home. Add Genie plus to your Park pass $$$$$ Parking for the day, $$$$$ add Food for the whole Family $$$$$$$. Merch $$$$$$$ and on and on. We will never return now that Parking is $30 per visit. Greed. $$$> ////// Just to add a slant. We bought a dji drone this new Year, two new comfy beds. We are going to buy a PS 5, a Nintendo Switch for the Grandsons Birthday this Year. A trip to Greece for the Family for a week, And still Have change from what we would have paid to Visit Disney Orlando this year. Disney. You have lost a loyal mug. And all his family and friends.
That sucked. I’m sorry for you guys. From what I’ve read, this is not what Walt Disney himself would want. He would be pissed at them for charging too much.
There is supposed to be a brand new theme park opening up In Vanita Oklahoma in about 2 years hopefully American Heartland Themepark,
IF and WHEN Genie+ is changed to be like FP+, I'll be going back...
i'm calling it right now, tiana's bayou adventure is not going to be near as popular as splash mountain
You were right. The Tiana ride is absolutely terrible.
Yes, we were lucky this year and able to stay for 9 days right after Thanksgiving. Just enough warm weather left to go to Blizzard Beach which we loved. Started to get cooler on our last 3 days and then did the character Dining which we loved. The Christmas decorations were all up and got to see them all. It was so nice to see the decor this year without the work. So no big Tree at home. It was still before the BIG crowds of Christmas. So we're good for a few years now.
I understand why they may be closing Dinoland, but as someone who may go into paleontology, it does break my heart. Dinosaur is such a good ride, even if it's kind of falling apart. I'd love if they at least kept that, even if the rest of Dinoland has to go... an Indiana Jones retheme would be disappointing, and an Encanto retheme would be even worse (even though Encanto is a good movie, I feel like it would be out of place in Animal Kingdom anyway).
Hey that sounds safe. A ride that is kind of falling apart. Yeah put kids on that. Haha
@@richardhughes8352high risk high reward
My son loved the Dinosaur playground so much... I genuinely think it was the most fun he had at Animal Kingdom. I love the prehistoric theme, and I wish it could survive in some way at the park. Not everything needs to be IP-based :'(
@@TacoEX1😊
The animatronics are tired the ride is safe
The cabins dont look like cabins anymore.
What a great option it used to be for families with smallish children. You know their customer stereotype. We did that a couple of times when the kids were young. The cabins fit well into the theme of fort wilderness. New ones look like something they ordered directly from Ikea.
🤣😂🤣😂@@RebelByNature
Closing Splash Mountain is a huge mistake
bro it was breaking down why wouldn’t they shii hadn’t been workin since forever
It really was.
They're updating it with new tech. It will be better.
such a Karen
You would have to be nuts to go to Disney World. If you want to get something to eat, you have to wait in a line. Want to go on a ride you have to wait in line. Want to go to the bathroom again wait in a line. I cannot imagine being shoulder to shoulder around all of those sweaty stinky smelly people and their screaming bratty kids all day.
I love watching your video's because of how detailed and informative they are. At the same time the more video's i watch the less it makes me want to go to Disney. Just seems really expensive and overly complicated.
I've recently been to Disney, and one thing I noticed about Country Bear Jamboree is mechanical clicking noises from the eyelids of some animatronics. If that one is getting refurbished, it would be nice if they could do something about it.
Biggest problem I face is not getting any discounts this year. All those discounts being rolled out and I won’t be there on any dates they are in effect
After the 5 years it took to build Tron it’s going to take more than 10 years to build a new land 😂 but seriously I think they need to hire new contractors
Especially after watching Universal raise so much structure of an entire park, it makes the construction of Tron look that much worse
@@VSpoodle considering it took mere months to develop and build it’s a small world for the 1964-65 worlds fair while working on Mr Lincoln and carousel of progress
Also gotta remember part of the reason it took so long for tron was because of covid. Of course that's not the only reason but there was a good length of time they weren't even allowed to work on it at all
Most of that 5 years were covid closures
Look at a satellite picture view of the area beyond Big Thunder RR. The area is not that expansive considering the close proximity of a perimeter road just beyond the small island. Even so, considering the ridiculous amount of time it took to complete Tron and to get to this stage of work on Wall-cot, I think 10 years is a realistic forecast. And by then it is likely to require Genie+ fancy ride upcharging to even cross the bridge to enter the new land.
Not having both water parks open simultaneously is low-key a big disappointment for me. I have the water park add on for my passes and not having both water parks available stinks. I want to be able to choose typhoon one weekend and blizzard the next. Come on Disney... Fix this!
DISNEEEY
Commenting on the Florida heat is a great warning. When we go it’s only in January or February. How people can live year-round in Florida is baffling to me!
my wife and i just went for a "mini" honeymoon, it was terrible. Its sad because she loved Disney in general and has a lot of trinkets and what not, she even said she does not want to go back. The lines were too long, we both got food poisoning and the scheduling for rides is awful especially if you're not staying on resort. $1,100 for three days of misery.
now imagine coming from the UK when we only get 1 holiday for 2 weeks and you pay £7-8,000+($10,000) and have the same thing? When Universal UK opens up i would love to see the impact ok UK travel to Florida. Eurodisney is nowwhere near Disney world but at £132pp per night, that price is starting to look appealing, but again i love Disney world, its just not the same.
I agree on not going back. It's such a disappointment with the prices especially.
10:54 As a former CP, weekly Kroger grocery delivery recipient, and former Kroger employee (some 20 years ago), this is possibly the most beautiful sight I've ever seen. ✨
Used to go to WDW every other year for over 20 years. Last went in 2018 and will never go again. They ruined it.
😢 I know. So sad
Louis plays a trumpet. 😁
After watching this, seriously, why would anyone ever go to Disney? Last time I went in 2016 everything was pretty simple but now it just seems like a complete mess. A bunch of rules that seem to change constantly re how to access rides, park closures that can happen randomly at any time, long lines, huge crowds and astronomical pricing. Doesn't sound magical or even fun.
It’s not fun anymore. We went in 2021. It was terrible.
I haven't seen this channel in quite awhile. I'm surprised it popped up in my recommendations.
That being said, we've written Disney off. I truly hope everyone here has a great time this year but to us, the Magic is gone.
Same
You said in fa few words what I tried to say in two paragraphs. Your right " the Magic is gone"
We’ve made many trips to Disney World and the last few years has convinced us it’s no longer worth the time or effort. Cost, crowds and all the new restrictions has made it so uninviting. So sad. I’m glad we at least had our fun times.
What it seems like =Genie+ plan for Seven Dwarves Mine Train - Let 50% of seats in each train go to Genie+ and punish other “stand by” line patrons for not bribing Disney. In August make that even more unfair by letting more Genie+ pay to play riders on board as the “stand by” crowd melts in the Florida boiling sun and humidity as they nervously pray a thunderstorm won’t shut the ride down.
If you’ve ever been to universal where those with the universal fast passes can go straight back on and a group of 30ish people are doing this while you stand in the queue melting it’s much worse!
There’s never a good day. Crowded every day. (Current passholder last 2 years)
Comparing the Kroger delivery fee to gas…$6 in gas to go to a grocery store? I don’t think you would use that much gas, there are grocery stores less than 20 miles from WDW.
We’ve gone in the winter the last couple of trips when there are always closures. We decided to go next October so I’m excited to ride Kali and really hoping Tiana’s will be open by then. 🤞🏻
Recommend you check to be aware of the impact of reduced Magic Kingdom hours if your trip is overlapping with the “Mickey’s Not So Scary” after hours party that requires separate admission charges.
@@jbmiller3280 yes, we haven’t decided if we want to do that or not. We never have before but we don’t have young kids, but still… is it worth it for adults?
As jbmiller already mentioned check Magic Kingdom opening hours. It can be very busy in MK on these days before the park closes to the general public. The parks can still be fairly busy as there are U.K. and Canadian school holidays in October and because it’s a little bit cooler most people from the U.K. go in these holidays.
I went in Mid Oct last year and the year before and it was too crowded. The good thing is it either doesn't rain or hardly rains. And it's not too hot if you hate hot weather.
@@lianelayman6584 that’s what I worry about - the crowds. We’re going I think in the first week, so maybe it won’t be too bad.
Went in December for 8 days and really noticed how it has changed since last time I went in 2013. It doesn’t seem to have the happy vibe and didn’t get a get feel especially from cast members who don’t seem happy. Certainly won’t be rushing back as it is so expensive now, think Disney Corporation has forgotten what Walt’s dream was for children and families to have a magical time 😢😢
I have learned over the past 7 years or so, the nicest CMs are in Epcot, minus the France Outdoor Kitchens and their ice cream shop.
Lawd, everything is expensive, not just disney. No matter where u go, prices are so much higher now than a few years ago.
I agree. We went in 2021. Probably the last time we will ever go and we have gone as a family almost every year. In 2021 the cast members were not happy. Some were down right rude. I’ve never seen that before. They also didn’t care about the magical illusion any longer. Walt never wanted the guests to see behind the scenes. He is probably rolling in his grave that repairs are shown in full view therefore killing the magic. Not to mention the prices. Walt wanted his parks to be available for all to visit. Such a shame.
I would rather have Splash Mountain. There was nothing wrong with it. When I used to go every year - made it 6 years in a row - I saw nothing wrong with how it was by 2010. I can't imagine what would be going on in each of the parks by now. Once COVID came around, it ruined everything. The rides got revamped, entrance choice, and the must for planning ahead way before you even got there. I loved the option of deciding that morning where I was going to go. No wonder the park has become much more expensive. Disney has jus turned into something that Walt never imagined. Its sad. I shouldn't have to think so hard to enjoy my vacation. That's what I am trying to get away from when I go on vacation. I don't want to venture down that way and run into some kind of "thing" I should have done ahead of time that completely slipped my mind. Its just exhausting and I see no reason for it. In this economy, I won't be visiting anytime too soon anyway. I just hate to think of all the people that are not able to go to Disney - not even once - because of how expensive it is. I should not have to get a loan to go on vacation. Its just not something I even yearn for anymore. I am sure I am not the only one that feels this way.
You are correct. You aren’t the only one. I feel the same.
2016 was the last o our magical experiences. 2022 we spent getting yelled at by cast members, standing in 30 minute lines for app 'quick service' meals, shuffling around wallcot and wondering why we spent so much for disappointment
The Skyliner will be closed when we go… AGAIN! We go to Disney the same week every year and decided to stay at the Riviera this year again, because the Skyliner was closed in 2023. We thought, surely, Disney won’t have the Skyliner closed the same week as they did last year. WRONG! And the thing is, Disney never gets their ish together soon enough for us to make informed choices or for us to change our reservations.
We are DVC members and have been going to Disney for over 25 years, so, I have to admit, it’s hard to stop, BUT it’s getting to a point where it’s hard not to have an attitude of “duck fisney!”
I haven’t stayed at a sky liner resort but I do remember a prior video on hotels where they warned the sky liner is closed for maintenance the same weeks each yr
@@ashleysinason3318- thanks for your response. We did stay there one year when we were able to ride it, so I don’t know if that was an anomaly, but that’s good to know for future reference.
The baby care centers have been a life saver for my family in past visits. My daughter would get over stimulated, especially during the hot summer visits, and taking time to rest in a cool quite place helped her get back to the fun. Highly recommend. Especially the baby care center in the Magic Kingdom.
The last and only time I've been to Disney World was July 1991. My one day adult ticket to Magic Kingdom cost only $31.50. Even when adjusting for inflation, the price I paid is far cheaper than it is now.
Dinoland USA Ali’s already almost a ghost town the last time I was there. Most of the big rides were disassembled and only small carnival style rides and games were leftover
I miss Disney World Animal Kingdom so much! I haven't been there since 2011 and I would like to work for them as a Zookeeper because it is beautiful there. I could also enjoy and spend time at the Swimming pool, Roller Coasters and watching the parade at Magic Kingdom. I additionally want to move to Orlando or Kissimmee Florida because I've been dreaming about this since I was a kid and I'm looking forward to it for the future!
The biggest problem I have is knowing that I'll never be able to afford to go there.
Been several times as a FL resident my whole life & I can tell you it's no longer worth going to. What once was great park has become just horrible today. IF you can't get a FL discount best way to see the parks is a mulitday pass still expensive but cheaper than paying for a single day.
that’s crazy couldn’t be me tho
The problem is, they will keep raising the costs as long as people keep going and spending the money.
@@mama5vintagehive767 so best to do what I do STAY HOME & SAVE YOUR MONEY!
I understand the changes good and bad are going to happen. My family went last year and the virtual queue for rides was a huge damper on our experience along with how we had to hope we could get a reservation in certain restaurants even when we planned and got tips from your wonderful channel. Disneyworld has become so expensive and so device dependent that it's not worth our family going as often as we have. I do love Disney world, we just won't be going back for a while if rides are only virtual queue or tons of construction is on-going. There are so many good things about Disney world and how all ages can have fun...I'm just going to hold off going for a while. We want a more care free vacation not a regimented, strict rules, fingers crossed kind of vacation were you have to plan food meals days/weeks in advance or miss out on park rides because you didn't stay in a Disney resort and don't have preferential rights.
The cabin refurbs are Terrible absolutely Terrible. Do i have to pay lot rent on my trailer home aswell?
As a DVC member i can NOT see spending one of my points on what looks like a mobile home.
The cabin redesigns are what happens when designers from Hyatt and Marriott design your Walt Disney World Room.
You don’t have to stay at the cabins
@@beardedraider4751 and I never will again, having stayed at them twice prior.
Disney just sucks in recent years, at last Disney California and Disney Tokyo...They simply find a way every year to make everything more exclusive and expensive, even interacting with mascots and characters is hard If you go spontaneously. It doesn't matter if you arrive early, there is no way to get on any interesting or new rides, you have to get on the dullest rides to do something, that was my experience at Disney Tokyo in November. I have heard that Disney Paris is the most accessible of the parks, so If you want to go to Disney maybe it is the best option...
Besides bending to the will of politics/ minorities
I remember the Little Mermaid show back in the 90s. We had bubbles fall on us.
Parks closing between 4-6pm? I’d be so angry to spend all that money and find this out - I hope they post it well in advance?
Right? At that point, whats the point of a park hopper pass? Thats highway robbery for charging so much per ticket for a park that's not open all day into the evening.
I’m a UPS driver from Texas. Summers here easily hit 115 heat index. I can tell you from experience that electrolyte drinks(Propel, Body Armor, IV in a bottle) most definitely work and help you. When we went last summer to Disney I made the wife and kids pound fluids every morning before hitting up the parks for 10hrs. We managed just fine with 98 temps all week in July. Pickle juice also works wonders. Be safe and have fun!
Can’t say enough good things about the baby care centers. The only caution is the one located at Hollywood Studios is tiny and right behind guest services so is not as quiet as the others.
The thing with a delivery service like Kroger is you don’t get to pick out your fruits and vegetables so it’s not worth the money you save. In my experience they pick the not so good fruits and veggies so that way it gets out of the store.
I get Kroger delivery for all of my groceries every week and I have very seldom ever had an issue with any of my items, including produce, and as a vegetarian I eat a LOT of produce. There are also sections where you can make specific comments about meat or produce if you have specific preferences
@@HappilyAfterEver Okay but how many options for produce do they have and other things like juice and flavored water. I bet it isn’t like a grocery store.
@@jimbo0715 That’s not true. They do have stores. What are you talking about?
Good Morning, I am referencing Kroger delivery to the Disney resorts. I did not realize Kroger had built physical stores in Florida. That is great news! Where is the one near Disney - I much prefer Kroger to Publix since Publix is so expensive. @@kaitlinschwarz3644
@@kaitlinschwarz3644Kroger does not have any stores in Florida for any of their brands, only delivery centers.
So basically, don't go to Disney World in 2024.
As someone who works outdoors for a utility company I can tell you that Liquid IVs do work very well but the company who makes them only recommends that you drink one per day. They have a ton of sodium and other electrolytes to help you stay hydrated but that can also be bad for you if you are trying to drink them just for flavor.
Another pro tip for the heat. Camelbak bag. We got a knock off from Amazon for about $40. Having a few liters of water at all times for the kids was a game changer! Then refill with ice water for free at any quick service.
As for the skyliner maintenance, most companies have a policy of annual maintenance of equipment. I would think that Disney and Doppelmyr (who supplied the cables and cabins, would have agreed that maintenance would be at least annually). Such equipment has to be insured as well, and Disney would not run it if it was not insured, and maintained properly.
Sounds like Disney has no money to update Disney World.
What’s sad is that they’re going to still charge you the full price of a ticket even with these closures. This is why I haven’t been to Disney World since 2007 and don’t plan on goinganymore.
Yes, great idea to get a park hopper pass when Disney is reducing the hours at all of the parks. Lol. And with the long lines at the rides to begin with no less. What a joke.
Thats a huge bummer... Coming soon❤
Just returned and the Genie is a complete rip off. No matter what we did it was only good for two rides per day. Such a waste of money.
What happened but I love Disney world so much what wrong with this?
Just finished our wdw vac. Incredibly expensive. Only way to go on a ride is pay for genie plus. Make the day well over $200 each. Food high. Merchandise high. That's why the 23% net income for the the parks.
My family were AVP holders in 1989 to 2002 at Disneyland so I do have some reservation about going to Disney World this Spring. For 4 adults and 2 kids its going cost about $10k for 7 nights Airbnb, 5 day park fees, air fare, rental van, and food, excluding souveniers. Not exactly cheap for sure.
I totally would not waste my money doing a Disney vacation these days.
We left Disney years ago. I no longer support anything they produce. That magic died decades ago. We decided to visit Greece one year and were really surprised it was cheaper to visit Greece than go to seeing wasted teenagers dressed up in costumes.
Do you have to be present to recieve Krogers?
I would love to watch Disney on tv rather than being able to go there. It's not the same anymore, like it used to be
Changing/updating Country Bears Jamboree is a travesty in the highest order. I can understand updating names or dropping songs that may not fit todays culture (Ie Liver Lips) but that silly show is now a time capsule into an Americana that no longer really exists. That generation has mostly died off and it fits the "frontier" aspect of the land. I do not need to hear Carrie Underwood or whatever it is they decide to put in there; but whatever it is, I'm sure it'll be way more what they think will be more commercially successful and less what used to make Disney great, creating and transporting you to an entirely different world that most visitors would normally never get to experience
Have you made any videos on the DAS service? I have it myself and i think it would be awesome if you included a mention of it in a video just in case any disabled viewers arent aware of it :) thank you for your videos!❤❤
u think i could get it for my deformed feet (it starts to hurt when i stand on it for too long)
they aren’t like terrible deformities cuz i play soccer and just found it out but i want an excuse to not pay
@@frjsnoah it may depend on the specific cast member you talk to for it. When i went for my POTS/IST (couldn't stand in lines) the person that interviewed me at the park said that the only thing they could offer was a wheelchair, not DAS. I was able to get it because I have autism which makes it hard for me to tolerate loud sounds and crowds in lines. However, I've heard of countless of people with POTS that got the DAS pass, so it depends. The people through the virtual interview process are a lot more lenient with giving out DAS passes so I'd go thru that route rather than in-person.
@@blimpa last time we went for my lil bro the girl asked what he has and we was like “ADHD” and she was like “ok!” and then we got it so either she js didn’t wanna do dat or it was honor system
My daughter and I have gone to Disney every year for the past 6 year's in late April. My daughter competes at ESPNs Worlds Cheerleading Competition at a high level. In the past, the cheer girls got an extra late night at disney to do rides. It didn't happen last year, though. My daughter is now 21 and we can't wait for this years trip! Drinks around the world at Epcot! Thanks for the great tips.
Florida in the summer can be brutal. And, it's best to plan on a thunderstorm every afternoon. Those storms can get crazy.
I would like to be as rich as it takes to casually rent out an entire park for a private party.
Horrible, everything has a long line. Even reserved time has a long line. It's not spontaneous, fluid. Everything has be be scheduled. GET In !!! Get out!!!!
Just came back from WDW in Feb this year. Way to crowed and much more expensive this year. Tried to figure out the Genie +. I was only able to get 4 more rides during the day. Too much to pay for just 4 rides. Decided that this would probably be the last trip there.
Disney is a company hell bent on self destruction
All the changes, the over crowding, the cost for sure, and then Disney trying to change the meaning of what a family is, this long time Disney fan ( some 60 plus years ) canceled the plans to introduce my grandchildren to Disney World and Disneyland.
To truly enjoy Disney as we did just decade ago is not possible for the average person, one must either go in debt or be some kind of celebrity to truly enjoy the park.
When I use to go, there was no planning it was just go and enjoy, Park hopper pass was awesome, only certain lines were really long.
Bottom line, Now it's near home attractions and camping, or a visit to University Studio.
Where's all the fun gone goin to disney , seems you got to have plans & itinerary & bookin stuff i used to just rack up on the day pay at the gate & in ya go , park tickets & parkin are sooooooooooooooo expensive , don't they get it if it was cheaper more ppl could go & it would even it self out ,it's not like you haven't got a popular product ................. Ooooo & dose anyone know whether ppl are back hiring cars again or again are these too expensive & ppl are still using ubers ?????
Launching a space rocket sounds easier than going to this nightmare vacation.
I first went to Disneyland in the summer of 1960 and i had the honor of meeting Walt Disney as he would walk around the park talking to guests. I am still trying to find the slide that my Dad took of me with Walt.
Fast forward to 1985 when my wife and I started what turned out to be yearly trips to Walt Disney World which continued to 2019 before the Covid pandemic and the Parkinson's which she developed and would pass away from in April of 2022.
Looking at all the new changes to WDW since 2019, it makes me sad since a lot of the things my wife really enjoyed, such as the high tea at Grand Floridian no longer exist. Also Pat Doyle who was bandleader of the Grand Floridian Society Band passed away in August 2019 and the band no longer performs there. I know all these changes would break her heart if she were alive now. I don't think I ever will ever go back but just live with the many years of happy memories and pictures that we took all those years.
I have the money to spend, but it was so overpriced I felt like I was being laughed at.
Face it, most families of 4 with an annual income under $ 120,000 are not going to Disney. The price has out stripped income.
I’d love to go to Disney hopefully at the end of the year but that sucks a lot of price increases are happening.
Disney is going downhill fast with its PC. Bull
Has anyone noticed that when you return to the transportation station, there's no signage for the trams "Heroes" and "Villains". The tram operators are besieged with questions by guests because there's no signage. is this Villains? No. Is this for Jafar? No. It's. the other tram. Hours and hours of this. It must drive the tram operators insane. Clearly Disney fired all of the crowd management people on staff and are too cheap to hire even one of them as a contractor to review signage.
I would be pissed if I paid for Disney and they closed early! 😡😡😡
I stopped going to Disney after the Pandemic and only go to universal every year the prices are more fair and they treat you like gold
My Advice for turist traveling to Central FL, wait till 2025 for the opening of Universal Epic Universe park, the biggest Universal park in the world, ditch over - priced Disney Parks
We were there the last week of January & Disney Studio was a huge disappointment as the Rock n Roll Rollercoaster was down & the day we were there only two elevators were working on The Tower Of Terror & as an ex-elevator mechanic it’s something I can’t understand since I believe the elevators are always under control of elevator mechanics on sight??? Also the main pool at Caribbean Beach Resort was shut down & that sucked along with the continual money grab by Disney, it will be a while before we go back to Disney World.
Never used the "flying easy bake ovens" and have no intention of ever using them
I love this channel, but I have really grown to dispise Disney in all its forms.
Not only that, But I'm not seeing any of those Disney 100 banners anywhere. they must have taken them down....
I knew it was too good to be true.....
