A new Disney Skyliner crossbody bag from Dooney & Bourke has arrived at Walt Disney World.
The bag resembles a Disney Skyliner gondola. On the front of the bag, Mickey takes a picture while Minnie smiles next to him. The sun shines in the sky behind them.
On the other side of the bag, Daisy is awestruck by the sights while Donald studies a park map.
The bottom of the bag is flat and features the Disney Skyliner logo against a black background.
The National Weather Service has announced that Tropical Depression 13 has formed over the tropical central Atlantic.
Currently, details of the long-range track and intensity forecasts are uncertain, however the system could bring rainfall and wind impacts to portions of Florida this weekend and early next week. Those potentially impacted should monitor the system’s progress and updates to the forecast over the next few weeks.
Central Florida recently prepared for the latest tropical storm to hit the state, Tropical Storm Isaias. Thankfully, there were few impacts to the region.
Walt Disney World’s Hurricane Policy states that a Hurricane Watch or Warning must be issued for cancellation or change fees to be waived.
As previously shared, Disney’s Yacht Club Resort is scheduled to reopen to guests on August 24! While Disney’s Beach Club Resort has been open for some time, the Yacht Club remained closed as part of the “NBA Bubble”. Now, we know reopening dining details for these two “sister” resorts.
The Walt Disney World website now shows the following:
A new dining “Now” option is available on the My Disney Experience app with a “Walk-up List” service at select table service restaurants.
So, let’s say you’re walking through EPCOT and decide you’re getting hungry but prefer instead of Mobile Ordering, you’d like to sit down at a table-service restaurant. No reservations? No worries! Visit the My Disney Experience App and you’ll be able to see what table-service restaurants have availability around you right now. You’ll then be able to simply add yourself to the “walk-up list” and get ready for indulge your appetite!
Let’s walk through it. First, from the My Disney Experience App home screen click the “+” at the bottom to see these options below:
Click “Check Dining Availability”. Select your party size and date. Obviously, since this is a right now option, you’d select today’s date. You’ll see the new “Now” option as circled in the image below:
You’ll then be prompted to select an available Walk-Up List. Since we are putting this article together in the morning, you’ll see there is nothing currently available for breakfast. Restaurants are noted with “Walk-up list is currently unavailable to join due to high demand”.
When clicking into Kona Cafe, this message comes up noting “Walk-up List is at capacity”:
Hopefully, this new feature will be especially helpful for lunch and dinner in the parks as sometimes it’s nice to take a breather from Mobile Ordering and quick-service venues.
Overall, we’d still recommend making dining reservations for table-service restaurants 60-days in advance. We feel this “Walk-up List” is really for spontaneous meals. Don’t count on it to ensure there will be availability at your favorite restaurant.
New “The Nightmare Before Christmas” Minnie ears have appeared in Walt Disney World after already arriving at Disneyland Resort.
The front of these ears resemble Jack Skellington’s pinstriped outfit and bat bowtie. The bowtie stands in for a classic Minnie Mouse bow.
Meanwhile, on the back of the ears, are the film’s villains.
