If guests are planning a trip to Walt Disney World Resort or Disneyland Resort, then they’ll want to see today’s three easy, time-saving Disney dining tips – including one BRAND-NEW way to simplify your dining plans.
This year, there are exciting Disney improvements and perks for things like making and viewing dining reservations, mobile ordering and more. Here’s what’s new:
Discover Dining Reservation Availability More Easily
Guests can now see all available reservation time slots at a restaurant for the entire day on DisneyWorld.com, Disneyland.com, and the My Disney Experience and Disneyland apps. Reservations are sorted by breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner, so guests can easily choose a time based on the menu they’d like to enjoy.
COMING SOON! Search for Dining Availability for Multiple Days
Soon, guests will also be able to see dining availability for MULTIPLE days at a time! With a single search, guests can view available dining reservations for any given restaurant for up to 10 days at a time. It will make scheduling dining reservations for an entire vacation much easier!
Pro tips:
At Walt Disney World, guests staying at a Disney Resorts Collection hotel can make reservations 60 days prior to arrival for their entire length of stay (for up to a 10-night stay). This can help guests enjoy streamlined vacation planning by making all their reservations on the same day rather than checking availability day after day.
Guests of the Hotels of the Disneyland Resort have preferred access to a limited number of reservations to dine at select Disneyland Resort hotel table-service restaurants during their stay. Guests should make sure to link their Disneyland Resort hotel confirmation to their Disneyland.com account to be eligible for the benefit!
If plans change at the last minute, don’t fret. With an update we made last year, guests can change or cancel up to two hours before a scheduled reservation at most Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort locations. Keep in mind, some locations may vary, so check guests should check the restaurant’s dining policy ahead of their visit.
Find Quick and Nearby Foods with Mobile Order
If a guest prefers quick-service locations, recent mobile order updates make it even easier to find and order food whenever hunger strikes.
Guests can sort the list to see which mobile order locations are close by and offer the earliest available pickup times in the app. If they’re walking around Sunset Boulevard at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, they can easily order from nearby locations like Rosie’s All-American Café!
There’s much to be excited about at Disney Parks right now – especially when it comes to food! As we continue to focus on simplifying your experience, we have made additional updates to the My Disney Experience and Disneyland app navigation menus that make the services and features guests need during their visit – like ordering food and making a dining reservation – easier to find and access. If guests are feeling hungry, they can head to the Apple App Store or Google Play Store to download the My Disney Experience and Disneyland apps, so they can plan their dream dining experience.* Already have the app? Make sure it’s up-to-date for the latest features.

Disney movies hold a special place in the hearts of audiences worldwide, captivating young and old alike with their enchanting storytelling, memorable characters, and timeless themes.
Since its humble beginnings with the release of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs in 1937, Walt Disney Animation Studios has been at the forefront of cinematic innovation, pushing the boundaries of animation and creating beloved classics that have stood the test of time.
One of the defining features of Disney movies is their ability to transport viewers to fantastical worlds filled with wonder, imagination, and magic.
Whether it’s the whimsical fairy-tale kingdom of Cinderella (1950), the lush jungles of The Lion King (1994), or the futuristic metropolis of Zootopia(2016), each Disney film invites audiences to embark on a thrilling adventure beyond their wildest dreams.
At the heart of every Disney movie lies a timeless message or moral lesson that resonates with viewers on a profound level. From the importance of friendship and family in Toy Story (1995) to the power of love in Beauty and the Beast (1991), Disney movies offer valuable insights into the human experience.
A newer Disney film that has captured the hearts of viewers is Moana (2016), which features a Disney princess.
Moana tells the story of a spirited young chief-in-training who embarks on a daring quest to save her people. Fueled by her deep connection to the ocean and her longing for adventure beyond the confines of her island home, Moana sets sail across treacherous waters to find the demigod Maui and restore the heart of Te Fiti, a mystical stone that holds the power of creation.
Given the success of Moana, Disney is releasing three new projects centered around the beloved character. The most anticipated of these projects is Moana 2
Scheduled for release on November 27, the sequel promises a thrilling adventure as Moana responds to a mysterious call from her wayfinding ancestors, leading her into perilous, uncharted waters.
Dwayne Johnson made an announcement about this massive Moana project. Moana’s live-action film is set to be released on June 27, 2025.
This movie will feature Dwayne Johnson returning as Maui the demigod. Meanwhile, Auli’i Cravalho has decided she will not return as Moana.
Another interesting Moana project is set for guests boarding the newest Disney Cruise Line ship called Disney Treasure.
Talented actor and comedian Tim Allen has been a huge part of the Disney and ABC family for decades.
For eight years, Allen starred in the iconic ABC comedy, Home Improvement. He also starred in a number of hit Disney films, including The Santa Clause (1994), Jungle 2 Jungle (1997), The Shaggy Dog (2006), and Wild Hogs (2007). And who could forget what might be Allen’s most legendary role — the voice of Buzz Lightyear in the Toy Story franchise?
In 2022, Allen reprised his role as Scott Calvin in The Santa Clauses on Disney+. And now, we have learned that Allen has teamed up with ABC for a brand-new comedy show — a series called Shifting Gears!
Shifting Gears revolves around Matt (Allen), a stubborn, widowed owner of a classic car restoration shop. When Matt’s estranged daughter and her teenage kids move into his house, the real restoration begins.
This is not the first time Allen has starred in a comedy for ABC. From 2011 until 2021, Allen starred alongside Nancy Travis, Amanda Fuller, and Kaitlyn Dever in Last Man Standing. The series was produced by 20th Century Fox, who then licensed the show to ABC. That was before the studio was purchased by Disney. Disney then licensed the show back to Fox.
Back in November, a rumor went viral, claiming that Allen was actually teaming up with controversial comedian Roseanne Barr for a new comedy. However, the rumor was pushed out by the satirical site SpaceXMania. Even if the rumor were true, it would be unlikely that the comedy would land at ABC.
ABC famously fired Barr in 2018 after she went on a racist tirade against Valerie Jarrett — a Senior Advisor to former President Barack Obama. Barr apologized for the tweet, blaming what she said on the medication she was taking. But ABC didn’t buy the excuse and parted ways with Barr, kicking her off her own show.
Shifting Gears will be co-written by Mike and Julie Scully, best known for writing on shows like The Simpsons, Everybody Loves Raymond, and Fuller House. The Scullys will also serve as executive producers alongside Marty Adelstein, Becky Clements, Richard Baker, and Rick Messina, who were all producers on Last Man Standing.
Walt Disney World is a magical place where dreams come true and possibilities are endless. Millions of people visit Disney World every year, leaving them with memories they will cherish forever. Unfortunately, it seems that now, more than ever, a lot of them are also leaving with memories they would rather forget. Guest behavior seems to be at an all-time low, and it’s disappointing to see.
One guest, Katy, recently enjoyed a trip to the Most Magical Place on Earth with her father and her young daughter. For her daughter’s very first ride, they decided to head into Fantasyland in the Magic Kingdom and ride “it’s a small world.” The slow-moving boat ride takes guests on a trip around the world, as animatronic dolls sing about how we are all connected.
As they approached the end of the ride, Katy (@mgkaty._) said she saw the cast members in the bridge area pointing in her direction. However, they were not pointing at her. They allegedly pointed at a man who had climbed out of one of the ride vehicles, even though he was supposed to remain seated.
According to Katy, a cast member came running down, telling the man to stay seated because the ride had not come to a full stop. The man did not listen, and things only got worse from there.
The man reportedly jumped out of the ride WITH A YOUNG CHILD, causing the entire ride to be shut down. The cast member said the gates would not open because of what the man did. But the man wasn’t letting that stop him.
Katy said that the man shoved the cast member out of the way, tossed his child over the gate, and jumped over the gate himself! He then took his child and ran away as the cast members tried to stop him.
Warning: Video contains harsh language that may not be suitable for younger viewers
Sadly, we do not know what happened to this outrageous guest. We can only hope that he was stopped by Disney cast members and security and escorted out of the park. Disobeying the rules and assaulting cast members is absolutely unacceptable.
Sadly, this is not the first time we have seen bad behavior on “it’s a small world.” In fact, it seems to be one of the most popular rides for guests to exhibit atrocious behavior.
Just last November, a man riding “it’s a small world” at Disneyland Resort stunned guests when he climbed out of his boat and stripped naked. He then swam through some of the water and climbed onto the animatronics. Police were called, and the man tried to evade them, but he was eventually captured. He was arrested and charged with indecent exposure and being under the influence of a controlled substance.
Another guest reported that they saw a guest strip down their young child. They then held the child over the water and let their child pee in the water. They then used a tissue to wipe the child and threw the dirty tissue in the water.
