The BEST and WORST Disney World Changes This Year (And The Ones We WISH They'd Keep!)

Editorial Summary

The creator evaluates various operational changes implemented at Disney World during the current period of social distancing and limited capacity. Positive changes that the creator hopes will become permanent include the shortened 60-day dining reservation window, which allows for more spontaneity, and the introduction of character cavalcades and surprise meet and greets. These alternatives to traditional meet and greets allow guests to see characters without formal reservations. The creator also praises increased sanitation protocols, such as the use of peroxide-based cleaning sprays on ride vehicles and the availability of hand sanitizer stations. Additionally, the current environment offers more personal space due to limited park capacity, less crowded transportation, and more open seating on rides. However, the creator notes some drawbacks, such as the absence of fireworks, earlier park closing times, and reduced restaurant menus. There is also mixed sentiment regarding the lack of FastPass, as the absence of the system allows for spontaneity but leads to longer standby wait times. Ultimately, the creator concludes that while many new safety measures are welcome, they look forward to the return of traditional experiences like character meals and nighttime fireworks.
