Hiya, Marissa!
Welcome to planDisney! I am delighted to hear that you are planning an upcoming adventure to The Most Magical Place on Earth this summer. How exciting. This is such an amazing year to visit. All four theme parks are currently in the middle of
The World's Most Magical Celebration. This 50th Anniversary spectacular has brought so many new experiences and a few new attractions to Walt Disney World Resort!
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind will be joining this list in May! So if you are planning a summer trip, you will have the chance to check out this fantastic new addition to EPCOT.
I have great news for you, Marissa! The
Disney Parks Blog recently announced the
return of traditional Character Greetings. Hip, Hip, Hooray! Starting in late April Guests will be able to hi-five and hug their favorite Disney Pals for the first time in forever. So pack those autograph books and get ready to take some amazing photos while creating some lifelong memories.
Speaking of photos, if you are going to be taking a bunch of adorable shots of character interactions and a few family pictures in front of park icons, I suggest looking into
Memory Maker. This service includes all of your
Disney PhotoPass pictures, attraction snapshots, and my personal favorite, Magic Shots. Be sure to let your PhotoPass photographer know you would like extra magic in your picture. When your photos are available on the
My Disney Experience app (typically within a few hours or less) you will be delighted with the surprise!
I hope that your upcoming vacation is memorable and magical!
We'll see ya real soon!
