Those animal puppets at AK were SO amazing. I literally tear up watching the videos of my kids interacting with them. 😂
Good morning everyone!! Are we all sitting with our coffee and Disney planners?! ❤️🥰
Yes of course! ✍🏼
Of course we are!
Hey hey! It’s the best part of the day! Good morning y’all!
Good morning!
Can you please keep an eye out for any information for us UK (International) viewers pleeeeasse. It looks like any international guest won’t be able to book advanced Lightning Lanes because that part of the app only works in the US and Canada 😟 I’ve tried testing a VPN with the current Genie+ service and the app sees through it 😕
AJ, your video saved us nearly $1,000 on our upcoming Disney Trip!! That's like having free plane tickets. Thank you for all the research your team does on these deals!
How come no blogger has addressed the worry of people logging into their 7day window or even 3 day window and find all the tier 1 rides sold out for their part days or even the tier 2 rides. Just like dinning reservations, you go in at 6o days and the places you want are already booked. How will they handle sold out rides on people's booking window day?
It will be exactly like when fastpass was a thing: Suck it up, you can't pick Slinky dog dash!! I hated fastpass (but it was free, so it was acceptable). I'm really mad about the change, I'm trying to be positive until it is tested by vloggers... but it is hard.
Very valid concern. They probably haven’t said anything because they haven’t been able to test it yet. We’ll have to wait until July and see what happens. Back when we did Fast Pass, I didn’t usually have issues getting what I wanted. But, dining is another story. No matter how early I get up, I haven’t been able to get Space 220 ever! Hopefully, LL won’t be as bad as that. 🤞🏻
The old fastpass was that way, resort guests got a head start. The non-resort guests will be the ones not booking the big attractions. They can still stand in line, rope drop, or jump in line before park close time. Where there’s a will, there’s a way!
@@claveauannie the original fast pass just let you pick your rides at the parks i think you are talking about fast pass +
@@suewalton8822foreigner even the ones staying at disney cant book until they are on the United states
So excited for our trip in 3 days! 🎉
Have a magical time 🎉
People complained sooo much about Genie and Genie +. Now look fast pass is back but now it’s a paid service. Why would people assume this service would be brought back as a free service. I loved Genie + and I’m sad to see it go. But we’ll see how this multi pass works when the bloggers test it out in the parks.
I planned my entire MK day with the excitement of sleephallow breakfast:'(
same i heard the news and had to go on a walk lol
Me too!!
@@Barrager69 go away
@@Barrager69 you're not though lol
@@Barrager69 this is a video about Disney world. Go away troll.
I get that it's Disney, I get that is 2024 but $16 USD for the popcorn mix feels shocking
Rumours that the 7 days in advance won't work outside of the US, so UK travellers won't be able to make there LL selections until they're in Orlando.
Yep
I heard that the new Genie + is going to really suck for visitors from other countries, like Canada where I am from, as you will not be able to book anything until you are actually physically in the USA. Is this true?
Well it is kinda true but good news for you Canadian are NOT international guests for Disney
My trip starts the 24th so i won't get the perk on 7 days in advance 😢I'm very worried there will be glitches and my money will be wasted. I hope Disney has a back up strategy.
The cast member’s face at 18:15😂😂😂 “Why u film me?”
Many years ago, I got to be a part of the Candlelight Processional and it was one of the coolest things ever!
Those waffles at Sleepy Halloween look amazing. My favorite thing there is the Mickey waffle with strawberries that was offered for breakfast before so I think I’ll love these!❤❤❤
Sooooo excited for all the holiday info and looking forward to the videos on the new lightning lane. Thanks for always keeping us “in the know” ! ❤
Multi Pass. How very 5th element.
can't get it out of my head. I won't be able to suppress saying it in line... " Muuulti-Pass"
Nooooo! I want the waffle sandwich back! It was a thing I looked forward to every visit
This is NOT the original Fast Pass! Local annual pass holders are SOL.
Good morning everyone how is everyone doing today I am very excited for June winding down I am very excited for 4th of July this week and I got to ask who is excited for 4th of July this Thursday
I'm excited for the 5th, my half bday lol
I certainly am excited for the 4th, thank you for asking. I'm also well by the way, I hope you are too.
Not me literally crying over the paint prints on the piano 😭💕💙
I am mourning the loss of the Fruit and Nutella Waffle Sandwich. I'm considering a protest....
Can I book lightning lanes seven days prior for Guardians, Tron, and Tiana’s? Are the virtual queues still the same?
Nooooooo!!!!!! Way did they change the waffles 😭 I never thought I’d be so sad about waffles
Looking forward to your Multi Pass/Single Pass videos after you have tested it. I think that will answer a lot of unknowns. Very helpful to learn from others. Thank You
The main thing I’m still confused about is how Multi-Park Genie+ will work. Currently you have to specifically buy the multi-park option, which is the cost of the most expensive park that day. But in the new version, Disney seems to imply that you simply pre-book (and pay) for your first park selections, and then if you have a valid park hopper ticket, you can simply make selections later in the day for rides in your second park. But if that’s the case, doesn’t that mean that your multi-park cost will now be dependent on where you start the day? So for example, if I wanted to go to MK and HS and use the new Genie+, it would be cheaper for me to start in HS and finish in MK than to start in MK and finish in HS?
Did Genie+ sell out for the day in Magic Kingdom by 7:01am? Am I hearing that right?
Just rode rocking Rollercoaster! They just opened it today for a sneak preview
And it left you speechless as well as with zero thoughts? What a strange person you might be. A sneak preview of… what!? Better? Worse? The Same? Can’t believe I’m wanting further information from somebody so dimwitted! 😢
My family and I are going in 3 weeks. Can’t wait.
That’s so exciting!
I have requested some of your printable guides and never got an email from you. How can I request these. I requested them 4-5 days ago. Thanks
Woohoo! Super great video packed with helpful, fun Disney Parks information! 😊
Thank you for this very substantial review.
Is it true that International guests are excluded from using the new Multipass system until they are in the US
This is including guests staying at a Disney hotel
I have heard this is true for all international guests except for Canadians which will be able to book from Canada 🇨🇦
Yes it is true
I'm not happy about the changes to genie plus. I don't want to plan everything before I even pack. There's no spontaneity anymore.
You want to wait and get up at 7:00am to buy Genie+ and make your selections…and you still may not get what you want AFTER you already paid? That’s better?
@@suewalton8822 you know what is better? The old paper fast pass model
@@luma4902 no thats not better. disney need to use the universal fast pass system. now that is better. i rather pay $$$$$ for the fast pass. especially since i know not everyone can afford it so the lines will be shorter
@@suewalton8822 yes, that's better. Much better. I'm going for 7 days in November. I'm be planning the rides I'll be going on the last day 14 days ahead of time. And you think the rides won't get booked with this system? It's the same number of people chasing the same number of rides.
Nothing is stopping you from being spontaneous. You do you!
NOOOOOOOO!!! My chicken waffle sandwich ;-; I've hiked across the whole park and waited in super long lines just to get that. It just won't be the same without the coleslaw either! Now I'm bummed out.....
I have been soooo excited about our trip coming up in August. We are flying from the UK to spend 14 nights on WDW property. If we were US guests, we would have access to pre booking our lightning lanes 7 days ahead of our trip. But, as international guests we won’t be able to book anything until we are physically on US soil (the first day of our trip). This feels unbelievably unfair considering all the extra expense and efforts international guests have to make. I feel like the way Disney have treated us with the new LL system has left such a sour taste and I feel like it’s already tainted how I feel about our upcoming trip. I feel like Disney doesn’t care about us. This will be our last Disney trip - for me, the change to Genie+ has been the last straw that broke the camels back. I can’t keep defending Disney anymore. I’m done.
Let it work in your favor. Many of the best aspects of Disney are seen when you are not rushing from ride to ride, as one tends to do with a lot of pre-booked time slots. Instead take your time, look around at what's happening, and see the amazing "little" attractions that don't get as much attention. You can have a great time there.
Shouldn't have been born in the UK
I've seen reports that it was mi's information and UK guests can pre book, we'll soon find out
Common L for the UK
No! Not Sleepy Hollow 😭
Wow Disney is really cutting costs by cutting down the quality of food. I hope they bring back the hush puppies 😢 also I’m disappointed by the Tiana food. It just doesn’t look good. I hope Disney will eventually have a permanent place for Tiana’s restaurant. I’m excited to learn more about the Disney cruise that is launching. I still don’t really understand the concept.
Go to Disneyland instead
HAPPY SATURDAY EVERYONE 🎆 🎇 🧨 🎉 😃 😍 🥳 HOPE THERE'S SOME AWESOME THINGS IN THIS VIDEO FOR ME TO SHOW MY AUNT JODY
Hello Aj thank you for all the information. Have a good day.
I suppose one entirely not mentioned issue is, how will the system effect standby line waits?
Thanks for the warning about the Harbour House changes. I'm allergic to alcohol in all forms, including food cooked with alcohol, so my favorite place to get Fish & Chips is gone. Boo!
Wow that very so wonderful
i wonder if it's possible to get a virtual queue spot for both tiana's bayou adventure and tron lightcycle/run
I was also wondering the same!
You can only hold 1 VQ at a time. So either VQ 1 then buy the other or if you use your VQ by the 1pm drop you could try for the other.
That all will change on July 24th
Our first day is literally on the 24th🙃
$170 to $220 for a few hours of after park closing festivities?!? Jesus! They will keep increasing prices if we keep paying. We did a halloween after hours back in like 2017 and it was like $70 each. So in seven years they have more than doubled and nearly TRIPLED the price! Let that sink in
We’re going to Disney Paris in September if you need boots on time ground there ha.
Ive been wondering about lightning lane multi pass for non Disney resort guests. Is it 3 days before the start of your date range for your park days or 3 days before each park day like dining reservations?
I heard that you can book the multi pass for the entire length of trip three days before the start of your first park day.
@@jeanettesmith765 that would be nice! I don't really want to have to be booking one park day while I wake up to go to another
Leaving to Magic tomorrow I was looking forward to the waffle sandwich this is so devastating 😭
Check the menu on the website, they just changed the waffles from the round waffles you can fold to Mickey Waffles, otherwise you can still get the same stuff on them
When will yall drop some videos on Disneyland Paris
I’m actually going to miss genie+. We would go to AK in the morning and stack LLanes all day every 2 hours. By the time we park hopped to MK around 5 pm we had five LLanes Tier 1 stacked plus the individual lanes for tron and mine train. That was fun.
What do you suggest if that new multi pass lightening lane falls in the middle of your trip? Any tips there? 🙏Hopefully we will be able to book the multi pass in advance of the days it will be in place for part of our trip? We are staying on Disney resort.
We will be leaving on the 23. I sure hope the genie plus will not be sooo high. This plan seems like it will sell out quickly being to do it 7 days prior. I can’t wait to see what you guys figure out how to make this process easier for us. Thank you guys for all you do AJ and friends!
Does anyone know what time on July 24 we can start booking? Is it 12am est?
DFB why do you still have 180 days for dining reservations on your planning worksheets? It’s 60 days isn’t it?
Great video!
Don't understand what is the big issue with virtual queue filling up to Tiana, I tried to log into Tron and the second the queue was open it was already filled. I logged in at 1PM and the boarding group was already for 6PM. Virtual queues are obviously hotel guest perk, no way to get them without early registration.
Is this what I'm hearing: You pay thousands for a vacation, and certain rides REQUIRE a lightening lane in order to ride it, like Tiana, and your family likes to sleep in until 9:00 am because you are on vacation, but when you wake up, you find out you will not be able to ride Tiana because there are no lightening lanes left? I'm so confused. There are so many families that can barely afford the Disney World vacation and now, they have to pay more to ride the rides that used to be free to ride?
Yup that sounds about ride. But we're still paying so they won't stop what they are doing
Can you go and just wait inline even if it is 4 hrs or is it ONLY lightning lane
no, you don't need to pay for a lightning lane to ride, only to bypass most of the line. There is still stand by. Only time you are out of luck is when there is a virtual line, used for new rides. Those are first reserve -first served
I don’t go until next august so hopefully the hype for Tiana will have dropped somewhat
@@Sallymartin83 That's what I'm confused about.
You didn’t mention the disappearance of the hush puppies???????
We did in a previous video! We are very sad 😔
Too Chocolaty? Is that a thing? I don't think that's a thing, AJ!
I have a Christmas trip planned. What is the best day of the week to go to HS @DFB? Least favorite park so always try to get it out of the way first. Planning to stay at AOA for Skyliner!
Does anyone know what's happening to the muppet shop in Hollywood studios?
What about international travellers I’ve heard that you can’t book rides until you are in the US??
Currently, you must be in the US or Canada in order to book rides. We're waiting to hear if Disney updates this
im not going to lie, im sad im not going until october. so many of those snacks for tianas sound SO good
Sebastian, that vampire date story time is hysterical! I’m laughing so much 😂😂😂. Thank you, bestie ❤
I am going to the Halloween party so excited
Thanks for the greatest news this month. Are the beignets at MK limited time or are they permanently staying?
Disney is saying limited time right now, but they've been around before and come back so we're hoping they stick around this time
I leave for WDW on July 26. Do I have to wait till July 24 to book in advance LMP? Or can I book 1 week before?
Has Disney said if Tianna’s Bayou adventure is going to be open during the Halloween ticketed events?
They said no but it might change
just bring your own straws! I dono why this is very hard for everyone to grasp, but I did! (i put it in my backpack) It's great, but you do have to NOT THROW IT OUT (like i almost did at the ren fair once) but yea, the reusable cutlery is also a thing. (i dono if you can travel with those yet because im new to those, and no it doesn't come with a straw) but yea..... I liked the melon one.....but it doesn't taste like "melon" to me.
I always have a spork, a reusable straw, and a collapsible cup in my park bag. They don't take up much space and are very handy
@@lavetaloca7790 right?! I try to use as much "re useable things as much as possible, even at home. It's better for you, and the inverement. (ik i spelt that wrong).
I love to bring my reusable cup to Starbucks (whenever i can remember it) I never saw a cup like that b4 but i have one with stickers i love to bring, It's between that and my hockey mug. (Cause they're both nice sizes. Ive been looking for Stanlys cups (pun intended?) for a while, but i think Owala is taking over the cup world now. I need one that's big enough, that has a handle, but goes in the dishwasher. (ugh anel ik) but that's me.
13:03
I request to have more info on New Years Eve at EPCOT. My husband and I are doing it this year and the info is hard to obtain
Other vloggers have done look at paging Mr.morow Kyle pallo JoJo's world ..each area has there own celebration .there's a big dj as well
Is there any news on the snacks available during MNSSP?
Not yet!
Leaving tomorrow for Beachclub for a 5 day stay, just me and hubby. I for one am glad that you wont have to wait till your traveling day to purchase. Like I would have to purchase Genie plus tomorrow for Tiana. When I would've like to atleast a week before traveling ( or when the ride opened).Fastpass was great but my favorite rides were allways taken. I wish the new genie plus came free wih us passholders. Any suggestions for trying to ride Tiana tomorrow, July 1. Is it Genie plus. ? Or virtual? What about lightening lane?
@dfbguide
I’m sure this question will be something to think about for later, but do you think Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is gonna be available for the Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween party?? And will it have a separate virtual queue like TRON does? (Never been but that’s what I understood from last year’s party)
I love what you do
Could Disney adventure be Disney’s redemption?
Hi, AJ and Team - it’s taken me all day to get through this video because of so much going on here, but i have to thank you for your excellent reporting. I am heartbroken, though! After years of looking at the scrumptious Sleepy Hollow nutella-and-fruit waffle, but unable to eat it because of severe GERD, I finally got the stomach surgery one month ago that will make it possible for me to have it. And now they’ve taken it away! Woe is me! I wonder if it’s possible to buy those waffles at home so i can make my own! Thank you for the 4th of July update. I would love to see the characters in their colonial uniforms - thank you for at least posting the photo! Love you guys -
@@lavetaloca7790 not really. They have retired the waffle that worked well (round) and are using Mickey waffles instead.
@@lavetaloca7790also the fresh berries are substituted for almost a cheap berry compote that is mushy.
This is the most savage video youve ever made! SOOO many food items were NOT up to your standards 😂😂
I was in Magic Kingdom a couple of weeks ago and had what I guess was my last fruit and waffle sandwich at Sleepy Hollow. I’m going to miss my favorite MK breakfast. I wish they had called me before they made the change. ☹️
I have a few questions maybe someone can help me. I live in the Netherlands and we have an upcoming trip in september (out first one) I tried everything to look at where I can reserve a spot at savis workshop to make a lightsaber. But it just throws me out. I used a VPN and it almost worked. But I just don't get to the page to reserve it. Do I need to call in the day when it's 60 days in advance?
Question 2. We stay in a Disney hotel. We can almost make dining reservations. But how will they know that we do so we can book 60 days + 10 days in advance of out stay.
Or can only US guests do this?
Thank you in advance!
Only US guests can . Call to book experiences like lightsaber
⚡️⚡️Leeloo Dallas ⚡️⚡️Has entered the chat.
My thoughts when I first heard about the multi pass 😂
@@aubreypark8142 🗿🌊💨🔥& ❤️
I'm going to be the villain... I didn't care at all for the hush puppies or that waffle! Not my thing.
Get rid of genie plus and bring back free fastpass with 3 passes. Bring back free transport from airport. Free parking at Disney properties. Lower prices 30%. Lower food prices 30%.
They just love to change things!
Wait a minute! Didn't they already open Tiana's ride since 4 weeks ago?! I'm confused?
It was going through ride testing with Cast Members and Annual Passholders. It’s now finally open for the general public!
The tiana ride was everything we feared it would be.
Splash mountain with different robots?
@@MrMaxRebos splash mountain without robots 😔
It’s good enough for the people it was intended for apparently. Why fear criticism and being called out when you can hide behind the great “diversity shield”
@@Madhatter-em6ysYes. Better to be snarky and edgy to cover up your obvious racism. 🙄
One ride with a black princess in the entire 4 parks who's movie was Oscar nominated, and ya'll true colors come out. Who is the ride meant for... don't see a segregated sign..that says Black Only. Stay your racist buts home in your caves and wallow in your own self hate. Walt himself hired hundreds of non white people as Engineers and Imagineers. Today, there non whites that are heads of studios and countless other behind the scenes big positions. This forum is not a place for you as it is a positive Disney site, not for downlow racist who uses it for lame, hateful, ideas for no less than 1 Disney ride out of how many? Sorry, but the ride stays, ya'll can go!
I hope they don't stop using single use plastic straws. Some people need them
Hey everyone happy Saturday love ur videos ur the best ❤can’t wait for my Disneyland trip so excited to ride Tiana’s bayou adventure love Tiana she’s amazing 🤩 enjoy ur day have a good summer stay cool 😎 it’s really hot 🥵
I’m definitely not buying it! Canada 🇨🇦 can’t book until in the USA!
Canada is included in the pre-book window for the new LL Multi-pass. Anyone in Canada or the US can use the pre-book window, but anyone outside of those two countries must wait until they cross the international border before they can use that perk.
Fresh! Berries! [Huff]
Ugh. The return of FastPass Plus.
Praw-lean. Is an interesting way to pronounce it lol
😂😂😂
Never heard it pronounced like that before
How does one go about finding career opportunities with the DFB Guide?
I wish Genie+ was changing sooner because I’m going on the 11th!! 😢
Let’s be honest, the new ride sucks. I don’t want to spoil it but instead of redoing the track it feels like the same song over and over without any story. It’s like It’s a Small world with a drop 🤦🏼♂️. Not to mention I lost count of how many times it stopped running when I was there a week ago
So Disney has an answer to a question that will guarantee Price Hikes & loss of more free options! When Tiana's attraction opened guests proved that they are willing to PAY for a spot when a free option was available. WOW!!!
It’s PRAYleen not PRAHleen
I still think it’s a flaming cheek to make you pay for Genie+, it’s not like we’re already paying out a pretty penny just to go to WDW especially when you coming from the UK!!! I’m looking at another $490 for one a day!!! Not gonna happen
