For every park except Epcot, park hours have been extended at least one day in March. At the Animal Kingdom half of the days in March have been extended. Performances of Fantasmic! and nighttime parades at the Magic Kingdom have been added.

http://blog.touringplans.comMore from this Domain

In a little over a week I’ll be heading back to Walt Disney World for a few days of fun on land before I start my journey on my very first cruise! I wanted to tell our readers all about my exciting plans for the trip. However, there will be so much going on with my few days at WDW and then five days at sea I decided to divide and conquer.

Tuesday, Feb 15: Operational Problems at the Magic Kingdom

Our Lines users in the Magic Kingdom are reporting major issues with virtually every attraction in the park. Rumor is that it’s related to the air compressors which power many aspects of most rides. There’s no ETA for a fix on this, and FASTPASSes are going fast at every attraction. If you’ve not yet headed out for the parks, avoid the Magic Kingdom.

http://blog.touringplans.comMore from this Domain

A few weeks ago, I wrote about my decision making process when I decide whether to fly or drive to Walt Disney World. Nine times out of ten, I pick driving, because it saves me money. Also, I love the fun of a road trip. But what if I could have the best of both worlds?

http://blog.touringplans.comMore from this Domain

Today we are making a few changes to our Park Recommendations algorithm for the Walt Disney World Crowd Calendar.

Best Parade Locations at Walt Disney World

http://blog.touringplans.comMore from this Domain

If you’ve ever watched Mickey’s Once Upon A Christmastime Parade in Frontierland, you likely know that location is paramount to enjoyment of a parade (same goes for fireworks–more on that in a future post). Although Christmas in the woods is beautiful at Wilderness Lodge, the same probably cannot be said for Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade in Frontierland.

Hall of Presidents Meet!

http://blog.touringplans.comMore from this Domain

If you’ve been reading the TouringPlans blog for a while you may remember one of my favorite attractions is one most people view as a place to take a nap. The Hall of Presidents in the Magic Kingdom holds a special place in my heart since I spent a full school year researching and writing about it and the Epcot’s American Adventure for my senior thesis in college.
