Disney has grown its Cruise Line quite a lot over the last few years. What started with the Disney Magic in 1996 has grown into a whole fleet consisting of five ships, including the Magic, Wonder, Dream, Fantasy, and now the Disney Wish, which was introduced this year.

So far, it’s been smooth sailing aboard all five ships as Guests explore and have fun discovering everything there is to experience on each ship.
However, one ship had trouble leaving the dock recently due to an unexpected reason.
Yesterday we learned that passengers on board the Disney Wonder were actually stuck and had their departure time delayed due to issues with the local tugboat companies. There was apparently a strike with the tugboat companies, meaning the ship had no choice but to remain docked until the issue was resolved.
This was confirmed in a tweet from Brooke Geiger McDonald (@BrookeGMcDonald), a passenger aboard the ship:
An announcement from the captain stated that Disney Wonder’s departure from Vancouver has been delayed due to a local tugboat strike but no one onboard is bothered by the delay. #disneycruiselinepic.twitter.com/wTjAnThHP4
On October 1, 2021, Walt Disney World Resort kicked off its massive 50th Anniversary celebration. To honor 50 years of Walt Disney World magic, Imagineers created two new nighttime spectaculars — Disney Enchantment at the Magic Kingdom and Harmonious at EPCOT. They also built 50 beautiful statues — called the Fab 50 — that they placed throughout the Magic Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom, and EPCOT. Each statue interacts with Disney’s new MagicBand+, and the bands even interact with the nighttime shows.
In addition to the fun statues and the nighttime fireworks shows, Disney also created gorgeous decorations, as well as a ton of delicious new food and drink offerings. There were more than a hundred new food offerings throughout the theme parks. The months celebrating Walt Disney World’s 50th Anniversary is truly a great time to make your way down to the Most Magical Place on Earth.
From the beginning, Disney said that the 50th Anniversary would run from October 2021 until March 2023. However, they never gave an official end date to the epic party. Until now. Walt Disney World Resort has officially updated its website, and we now know that the 50th Anniversary will end on March 31, 2023.
This milestone is such a big deal, we’ve even coined a new word – “EARidescence” – to describe what you’ll see when you visit. Our Disney teams are creating all sorts of new decorations that will shimmer and sparkle all day and into the night.
As part of the celebration, Cinderella Castle at Magic Kingdom Park will add to its royal makeover from last year. As you can see in this new artist rendering, the castle will feature golden bunting and a 50th anniversary crest as part of its festive new look.
The castle will add even more magic at night, joined by icons at each of the other three theme parks as they transform into Beacons of Magic. In the video above, you can get a feel for what they’ll look like, with pixie dust on Cinderella Castle, magical fireflies inhabiting the Tree of Life at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park, and special new touches coming to life on the Hollywood Tower Hotel at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
And at EPCOT, new lights will shine across the reflective panels of Spaceship Earth, connecting to one another and resembling stars in a nighttime sky. This permanent new lighting will continue beyond “The World’s Most Magical Celebration” as a defining feature of the park.
You’ll also want to keep an eye out for Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse, who will have sparkling new looks for the celebration. As hosts of the event, they’ll be dressed for the occasion in custom-made fashions of EARidescent fabric with gold highlights.

Disneyland Resort was closed for more than one year because of the COVID-19 pandemic. During that time, Disney officials decided to make a lot of changes to how Guests would be able to visit Disneyland and Disney California Adventure. For one, the traditional Annual Pass system was done away with and a new Magic Key Pass Program was introduced. Second — and possibly the most important — all Guests ages two and up are now required to make a theme park reservation before they head to The Happiest Place on Earth.
Guests who want to visit Disneyland and California Adventure must not only select which day they would like to visit the Resort, but also what Park they would like to spend their day in. Even Guests with a Park Hopper ticket must select which Park they would like to start in. The reservation system — which is also in place at Walt Disney World Resort — has been a controversial one. While many Guests have become used to it, there are still times when some people forget about those essential reservations, which can become problematic on especially busy days.
On some days, there are still reservations that can be made the day of. However, during busier times of the year — like summer and the holidays — if you head to the Parks and you don’t have a reservation, you may be out of luck. Most people would realize the error was theirs and lay the blame at their own feet. However, one Guest did not lay the blame on himself, instead, he took it out on a Cast Member operating a ticket booth.
TikToker John Tovarr was also in line at the ticketing area and recorded the Guest’s outburst. You can watch the video of the incident below.
As you can see, the Guest informed the Cast Member that everyone in his party had a theme park reservation, except for a young boy. While we cannot hear what the Cast Member says, they seem to indicate that the young boy’s ticket is not valid for that day and the angry man says to upgrade the boy’s current Magic Key. Unfortunately, it does not look like that solution would have worked. The man gets angrier as he yells at the Cast Member, seemingly shocked that the boy can’t get in when everyone else in the party has a reservation.
Here is what you need to know about Disneyland Resort’s new theme park reservation system — which applies to both Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure:
All Guests (ages 3 and older) are required to have:
Valid admission and park reservation, for the same date and same park, for each day of their visit
An approved face covering for each Guest age 2 and older, as applicable. Please check current face covering requirements.
Theme park reservations can be made up to 120 days or more in advance, subject to availability. To accommodate as many types of ticket holders as possible, reservations for select dates may be made available on a rolling basis. Different types of admission may have different reservation date availability. Park reservations are limited and subject to availability, and availability can change until the park reservation is finalized. Check for updated availability.
Before you take your own magical Disneyland or Walt Disney World Resort vacation, it is important to make sure that you have all of your theme park reservations made. While Cast Members will do their best to help you if you find yourself without one, if the Parks are at capacity, their hands are tied. Guests need to remember that making a reservation is their responsibility.
If you are struggling to make your theme park reservations, or need help planning your Disney vacation, you can chat with a representative through either Resort’s website — just make sure you chat with a representative from the correct Resort. Both the Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World Resort websites also have phone numbers you can call if you need additional assistance.
