One of the most common questions I hear is: Do I need a MagicBand?

The short answer is no, you don’t need one—but it can definitely enhance your experience! With a MagicBand, you can easily tap into your hotel room, enter parks, redeem Lightning Lane selections, and link your PhotoPass photos. Plus, they’re fun to customize and wear!

We just received ours for our next trip, and it’s definitely enhanced the excitement!

If you prefer, you can also use the MagicMobile service on your smartphone or a physical card for most of the same features.

Which do you prefer to use—MagicBand or MagicMobile?

🚂Big refurbishment news! 🚂
Starting January 6, 2025, Big Thunder Mountain will close for a lengthy refurbishment until 2026. No other details have been released about what the refurbishment will include, but if you’re traveling to Magic Kingdom in 2025, just know Thunder Mountain will be unavailable.

I’m so glad we’ll be able to ride it in December—it’s my daughter’s favorite ride in Magic Kingdom!

Another 4:50 AM wake-up today, but it was worth it—I was able to score a reservation at Topolino’s Terrace for my client! This is, hands down, one of the nicest character meals on Disney property. The food is top-notch, and the location is stunning. It’s located on the 10th floor of the Riviera Resort, with windows offering gorgeous views of the property. The characters are absolutely adorable in their artist outfits. Definitely a must-try if you haven’t been yet!

Does anyone else remember this ride?! It terrified me, I still can vividly remember it!

Does anyone else remember this ride?! It terrified me, I still can vividly remember it!

October 12, 2003:
The ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter (often abbreviated Alien Encounter), a "theater-in-the-round" attraction located in the Tomorrowland section of the Magic Kingdom, closes at Walt Disney World.

First officially opening in June 1995, the darkly humorous science fiction experience was a co-production between Walt Disney Imagineering and Lucasfilm. It used binaural sound to achieve many of its effects - suggesting that the alien was moving through the chamber above the audience. (Much of Alien Encounter took place in total darkness, operating on the guests' non-visual senses.)

Guests were first ushered into the "Tomorrowland Interplanetary Convention Center" for a demonstration of new technology from an alien corporation known as X-S Tech. Guests then proceeded into a second area where they were introduced to an X-S robot known as Simulated Intelligence Robotics (SIR), voiced by Tim Curry. He demonstrated the company's teleportation technology using a little alien named Skippy. Finally, guests enter a theater where they are seated in harnesses within a circular chamber surrounding an enormous plastic cylinder, the "teleportation tube." Clench - played by Jefferey Jones, and two X-S Tech employees, Spinlok - Kevin Pollak and Dr. Femus - Kathy Najimy, communicated "live" from across the galaxy via video screens. Initially, a single guest was to be teleported out of the chamber for a meeting with Clench. Instead, Clench decided to have himself teleported into the chamber on Earth to meet the entire group. Clench's impatience causes an error and a towering, winged and carnivorous alien was beamed into the tube by mistake!

The attraction will be replaced with Stitch's Great Escape! in 2004 (featuring a comical reprisal of Skippy).

Travel Tip Tuesday: Know Your Cancellation Policies! 🤔

I’ve seen a lot of questions lately about the cancellation policy for DVC rentals. It’s important to remember that DVC rentals are non-refundable, which is a key risk when booking through a third party.

If you book directly with Disney, however, you’ll have much more flexibility. Right now, Disney is offering the option to cancel or reschedule your trip without any penalties.

Be sure to weigh your options carefully before booking to find what works best for your plans!

07/10/2024

With a hurricane approaching, I’ve been working closely with a client currently at Disney, making sure they’re well-informed and offering any support or modifications they need. Whether it’s rescheduling park days or switching up plans, I’ve got their back!

In addition to that, I was up bright and early at 4:50 AM today to book the second half of dining reservations for another client’s upcoming split stay! 🎉 Double the fun means double the early mornings, but it was worth it to lock in these amazing dining experiences:

🍽️ Akershus
🚀 Space 220
🍳 Cape May Café
🍗 Homecomin’
🍦 Beaches and Cream
🦒 Tiffins
🌸 Crystal Palace
⚓ Ale & Compass

No matter what’s happening, I’m always here to make sure my clients get the best Disney magic possible—rain or shine! 🌟

I’m really excited to try the Toothsome Chocolate Emporium on our upcoming Universal trip! Unlike Disney, there aren’t as many places at Universal that need reservations, but this is one I definitely want to book. The steampunk-inspired vibe looks amazing, and I’ve heard the food is great—there’s even a touch of chocolate in some of the entrées!

Some popular items include:

• Chocolate Almond Bread with salted caramel butter
• Truffle Fries with parmesan and truffle oil
• Tour de France Burger with Brie, bacon, and fig jam
• BBQ Chicken Flatbread

And of course, their gourmet milkshakes are a must-try, with flavors like Heavenly Hazelnut and Marshmallow Crisp. Can’t wait to check it all out!

Story Time: Another Example of How a Travel Agent Can Help

This weekend, one of my clients had trouble booking Lightning Lanes for herself and her mom. After it didn’t work, she reached out to me, explaining what she thought the issue might be.

I stepped in and called Disney’s IT department on her behalf. After waiting on hold for almost 30 minutes, I finally got through to someone. Together with the IT team, we resolved the issue for her. While I had them on the line, I also asked to adjust her Lightning Lane times so that they’d be closer together.

This is a perfect example of how a travel agent can handle the little bumps along the way, saving you time and making sure everything runs smoothly! ✨

This is one of my favorite shows at the parks, especially during the holidays with that special addition at the end. It features one of my favorite songs, ‘When We’re Together.’ I can’t wait to see it again soon and sing along! ❄️

You might think Universal Studios is only great for older kids, but it actually has some fantastic areas for younger ones too!

The brand-new DreamWorks section is full of fun and excitement for the little ones. It features a Kiddie Coaster or ‘TrollerCoaster’! that’s perfect for tiny thrill-seekers, a Kung Fu Panda Training Center where they can practice their moves, and a visit to Shrek’s Swamp! Plus, don’t miss the amazing DreamWorks show that’s sure to entertain the whole family. Universal really does have something for all ages!
