Annual Passholders Can Score an Exclusive Souvenir at EPCOT’s Festival of the Holidays!

According to Disney’s website, there will be a Passholder-exclusive Cup available at the Donut Box Holiday Kitchen (which is located near Test Track) throughout the length of the festival (or while supplies last). Comes with an order of the Gingerbread Milkshake.

RUMOR: Pocahontas Scene Cut from Fantasmic at Disney’s Hollywood Studios

I'm surprised it lasted this long. I feel like they put it in during the 90s when it was the newest "hot" Disney movie but watching it within the last ten years it just feels weird of all things to spotlight. I would be interested to see what replaces it, if anything. The effects were cool but there are probably a dozen other movies they could use instead.

I like this scene. It was different from the DL version, which I appreciated.

Rumor is Moana and Frozen. My guess is the jungle book sequence gets cut too.

It still will be. Hopefully they won’t wait 20 years before they update it again. Every five would be nice.

I just hope they don't use the musical orchestration from the updated DL version - I didn't care for it.

Yes hopefully they keep them different.

 

[BrianL]

Yes hopefully they keep them different.

I'm sure hte show will be as the DL version requires two ships! I still have always preferred the HS version, despite that being the less popular opinion. At this point though, I just WANT IT BACK!

Most Disney World Lightning Lane Options Completely Full Hours Before Park Close During Busy Holiday Week

And that’s pretty much way before. It’s been a HUGE fail IMO. I used it when it first came out & it was good despite paying for something that used to be free. But today at 7am, first available was at 1:15 in DHS & then nothing til late night after that! So we spent $80 on 1 ride!

Now AP holders will get to be a part of the show as they sit in the section where the kites crash. Then they get put to work as "honorary CM's" gathering up the kites and putting them away. Makes AP holders feel special AND solves the staffing shortage!

This is ridiculous. I thought this could happen. Cap the amount of G+ sold, release more inventory for each ride, or make the service free. I won't be there til March break but I'm assuming the crowds will be similar.

Exactly! The current system does NOT work. Btw anyone have guest services email handy?

I think most of us saw the flaws a mile away. Other than price increases I don't know that I see them doing much about it.
