➡️ Park hopper or base tickets? It’s one of the top questions we travel agents get. Deciding if the extra cost is worth it can be tough—no one wants to waste money, but time is just as valuable 💸⏰. Disney’s park hopper ticket upgrade gives you more value for both in a few ways:

Dining 🍽️: Finding that your favorite restaurants seem to be in just one or two parks? With a park hopper, you can easily dine at any park at any time.

Flexibility 🌐: Swamped by crowds? A park hopper lets you switch parks if one feels too packed. A leisurely afternoon or evening stroll around World Showcase could be just what you need after a busy Magic Kingdom morning.

Lightning Lanes ⚡🎢: Want to hit top rides in different parks on the same day? With the Lightning Lane Single Pass, you can purchase two per day, and they don’t have to be in the same park.

Maximize time ⏳: If your time is limited, you can ride your must-dos and then bounce to the next park with ease.

🤔 Are you team park hopper or team base ticket? Tell us in the comments!

🥱 Tired of feeling like you need a military-grade itinerary for your Walt Disney World trip? “OK, we’re waking up at 6 AM, rope dropping this, then riding that, then sprinting across the park for lunch, and squeezing in more rides before dinner.” Sound fun? Or completely exhausting? 😅 If planning is starting to feel like a high-pressure mission, I’ve got some great ideas on how you can make your Disney park touring low stress ✨:

Buy the Lightning Lanes ⚡: It’s an additional cost, but no one wants to get all the way to Walt Disney World and spend precious park time standing in long lines.

Avoid visiting during school breaks 📅 if possible.

Take an afternoon break 😴: Avoid afternoon crowds, high temps, and exhaustion!

Time of day matters ⏰: Not a morning person? Try shutting down the parks instead of rope dropping. Crowds can be lower, and the temps cool down a bit.

Attend an After Hours event 🌙: Yes, it’s an extra cost, but these events are loved for the lower wait times and unique character meet-and-greets.

Ok, those are my top tips for low-stress park days. Let’s fill the comments with YOUR best ideas! 🎢✨

Even if you don’t consider Doctor Strange an actual Avenger (it’s a pretty serious debate if you Google it 🧐), you have to admit his powers are pretty handy to have around. At Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure Park, you can find the time-bending Doctor and other Avenger-adjacent friends hanging around the Ancient Sanctum. While the Doctor Strange: Mysteries of the Mystic Arts show was discontinued over the summer, this area is still incredibly cool to visit. Especially at night!! It’s an epic photo spot 📸! But it does seem like the space is under-utilized right now 🤔.

OK, your turn! 🧢 Put your Imagineer hat on and come up with a new show idea for the Ancient Sanctum stage!

Let’s clear this up: Día de Mu***os is not Mexico’s Halloween 🎃🚫. Yes, it happens around the same time, but it's a two-day holiday all about celebrating life and remembering loved ones—nothing spooky about it! 💀✨ EPCOT’s Mexico pavilion does such a nice job blending culture with a fun, family-friendly, and familiar (Coco) vibe . Even if you’re just walking inside to get to the Gran Fiesta Tour attraction, it’s hard not to be drawn to the visually stunning ofrenda 🕯️, ornate decor, unique merchandise, or turning yourself into a skeleton in the 🪞Mirror de Mu***os!

Would you say that no trip around the World Showcase is complete without popping into the Mexico pavilion? What draws you to it? 🤔❤️

🌺🧳💭 Is it fair to say that you’ve been dreaming about packing your bags and heading to Hawaii for ages... but somehow, you just haven’t pulled the trigger yet? I mean, we know Walt Disney World inside and out—every corner of the parks, every snack cart, tip, and trick—and we love it. But Aulani, a Disney Resort & Spa feels like a whole new kind of adventure, right? So, what’s holding you back?

🌍 Is it the distance? Hawaii can feel like a world away from Cinderella Castle, but those island vibes are worth the trip.

🌴 Is it the fear of missing out on park action? I get it, no rides, but you CAN hop on a lazy river through a lush tropical oasis, enjoy character breakfasts with Hawaiian flair, and see some of the most jaw-dropping scenery!

💸 Is it the cost? Hawaii might seem like a big leap from a visit to Orlando, but with the right planning and a great promo, that spending gap can shrink!

I mean, imagine lounging by the beach, sipping a fruity drink 🍹, and watching the sunset over the Pacific. 🌅 Aaaah...let’s chat! I’m here to help you figure out the best time, budget, and plan for making your Hawaiian Disney dream come true. Request a Quote at www.linktree.com/ypgtravel 😊

🚢🍔🍕🥗🍦 If you know anything about cruising, you’ve likely heard the stories of all the food available onboard cruise ships. Believe me when I say there is food EVERYWHERE! Want 3 appetizers at dinner? Do it. Want 4 desserts? Do it. Want to hit the buffet/quick service restaurants every hour between breakfast time and when it’s time to get ready for dinner? DO IT!

Disney Cruise Line buffets are no joke, and you will not be disappointed. The Disney Wonder (Vancouver Roundtrip Alaska Sailings) has Cabanas, Mickey waffles, carving stations, pasta, desserts galore, and so much more - it’s all there for you!

🔍 🔔🇺🇸Do you know about these HIDDEN SECRETS of Liberty Square? If you love finding those little-known details that make the parks even more magical, Liberty Square in Magic Kingdom is packed with them. ✨ Here are a few gems you’ll definitely want to make sure you take notice of:

👀 If you’re wandering around Liberty Square after dark, keep an eye on the windows of Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe! You just might catch a glimpse of Ichabod Crane from The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, silhouetted in the window. It’s a spooky nod to the Headless Horseman’s story! 🎃

🐭 Peek up at the round window on the front of Liberty Tree Tavern and you’ll see Amos Mouse from “Ben and Me,” a classic Disney short about a mouse who helps Benjamin Franklin with his inventions.

🩵 Look for the heart-shaped “Est.” sign posted on the Christmas Shoppe building—it reads “Kepple,” a tribute to Walt Disney’s grandfather, Kepple Elias Disney!

Did you know about these? Have any others? Let’s let the secrets out! 🔍😊

💡 Pro Tip: If you are stuck with a crazy late flight on your trip home from Orlando, check out the day rates at the Hyatt Regency Orlando Airport Hotel. 🏨 For a nominal fee, you can enjoy their pools 🏊‍♀️, take a nap 💤, and just relax while you wait for your time to head back to adulting. Spots do book up quickly, so let’s check on that for you as soon as your flights are booked! Who has taken advantage of this cool and convenient hotel offering?

Call me crazy, but for me, part of my Disney trip fun is hanging out in the Orlando International Airport. 🛫 I have to do one more spin around the Disney stores and have our last Orlando dinner before heading back home. What are your airport trip traditions? ✨

✨ Tinker Bell fans, this one’s for you! Remember how magical it was to meet Tinker Bell at Magic Kingdom? When they removed her meet and greet, many hearts sank. 💔 But guess what? There’s still a place where the magic of Pixie Dust is alive and well—and we call it Disneyland!

🧚🏻Pixie Hollow, an enchanting fairy garden where you can meet Tinker Bell herself, still exists there! No more waving from a parade float. At Pixie Hollow, little ones (or let’s be honest, all of us) can meet Tinker Bell face-to-face! Shrink down to the size of a fairy as you walk through Tink’s garden, surrounded by giant flowers and tiny homes.

It’s incredible how Disneyland holds onto those timeless stories, and if you’re more a fan of the original magic, you’ll LOVE how it celebrates beloved characters like Tinker Bell and the world of Peter Pan in a way that just feels... special. Where does Tink rank in your top 10 favorite Disney characters? 😊

🚢 Is it the journey or the destination? We hear this expression a lot, but it really is a hard question to answer when it comes to cruising. Disney Cruise Line takes the cake with both the magical experience ✨ and the amazing ports of call. With itineraries like the Caribbean, Alaska, the Mediterranean, and more, there is a sailing for all interests. 🌍 But if the sights aren’t the star of the trip, you won’t be disappointed with all that DCL has to offer. Included in each sailing are:

🎭 Broadway-style shows

🍽️ Exciting dining experiences

🎉 Characters galore

🎨 An abundance of onboard activities for all ages

⭐ Disney level of service

Each ship is a floating destination filled with all the things you love about Disney!

What do you say? Is a Disney Cruise Line trip just about the port adventures, or would you be just as happy never stepping off the ship? ⬇️

🍽️ 🏰I know how it is—when you’ve got your go-to quick service spot at Magic Kingdom, it’s hard to veer off the path. (Trust me, I get it. There’s comfort in sticking with a favorite!). BUT when you’re ready to take a break from your “usual,” head straight to 🍺 Gaston’s Tavern in Fantasyland.

Their new Ham & Gruyère Tart is next-level! If you’re a fan of rich, savory combos, this is the dish you didn’t know you needed. And, if you do take the leap and try it, you’ve GOT to add a Grey Stuff Cupcake for dessert. 🧁 It’s the ultimate reward for stepping outside your comfort zone. (Spoiler: It’s delicious!)

Trust me, you won’t be disappointed, and who knows, you might just find a new favorite! Are you tempted to give it a shot, or are you sticking with your “old reliable” (and what is that exactly)? 😊
