    Is it true there is a mandatory gratuity for all rides now?

    Hey There, Hi There, Ho There, Jaci!

    Welcome to planDisney! We are delighted you stopped by, and we are honored to answer your question regarding your next trip to Disney World! 

    This is a very interesting question, so I made it my mission to go on a quest to find the answer to your question. (Just call me Basil from "The Great Mouse Detective!") After snooping around, I am very happy to share with you that Mickey Mouse is not asking for mandatory gratuity when riding any attraction at a Disney Theme Park. This hoax was started on social media and caused quite a frenzy among many Disney fans. Rest assured that when you hop on Space Mountain the next time you are at Magic Kingdom, you will not be asked to give a tip! Don't you just love happy endings?!

    My favorite go-to resource for the latest and greatest information regarding all things Disney is most definitely The Disney Parks Blog. You can always trust this information, and it's always an awesome resource for new and exciting offerings at the "Most MAGICAL Place On Earth!"

    I sure hope you will be planning a MAGICAL vacation to Disney World soon! Just so you know, Mickey is offering some special offers for all of his pals like YOU! I am so excited about the FREE Dining Plan being offered! 

    If you have other questions, please do not hesitate to ask! We are here to help in any way!

    Have a TIGGER-ific day!
