It's great to see you here today at the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Kendra!
Cast Members have such a special impact on our vacations, right? I think it's pretty amazing when kind-hearted people choose to spend their working lives making people happy, and I've seen some Cast Members at Walt Disney World Resort truly go above and beyond to make magic happen for guests. I'm so glad to hear that you had that same experience when you were enjoying your recent trip!
If you want to celebrate a Cast Member who made you feel extra special, there are a couple of ways to do that. If you're still at Walt Disney World Resort, you can visit any
Guest Services location and they'll take all of the details so they can recognize the person who made your trip so special. If you're already back at home, the best way to send your compliments is to tweet at the official Walt Disney World Guest Service Twitter account. Make sure you tag @WDWGuestService and use the hashtag #CastCompliment to make sure your tweet gets noticed. They will want to know the Cast Member's name, where you met them, and a brief description of how they made you feel the magic. Guest Services collects all of the compliments and delivers them to Cast Members so they know what a difference they're making every day. I recently had an amazing interaction with a lovely Cast Member at
Columbia Harbour House in
Magic Kingdom Park and when I tweeted Guest Services about it they replied with a picture of her holding a printout of my message! It's great to see hardworking people honored for the work that they do and I was happy to be part of that, so go ahead and reach out and recognize that Cast Member that made your day extra magical.
See ya real soon, Kendra!
