disneyland-railroad-toontown-4

Since reopening, the Disneyland Railroad has adjusted its operating procedures somewhat. Guests are now only boarding at the Mickey’s Toontown station. This restriction is apparently in an effort to better track the railroad’s wait time as most guests are not currently using it as transportation. Guests can exit at any other station, but will miss out on the rest of the train ride. The train is being cleared of all guests upon arriving at Mickey’s Toontown station. New guests can […]

Is FastPass+ Coming Back Sooner Than We Thought?

We received a note from one of our listeners this evening who shared that he’s got an upcoming vacation to Walt Disney World this August. Today, he was perusing the My Disney Experience app when he noticed that the FastPass+ button reappeared and showed that he could begin making selections on June 30, 2021 for his August vacation.

The button appears one minute, then disappears the next, and then the app crashes completely, indicating that Disney could be testing the feature for its return in August. We’ve seen this same situation before while stalking for dining reservations to open and more.

As we hear more, we will be sure to keep you updated!
