Terminal C at the Orlando Airport was buzzing last week as cast members came together for a grand opening celebration of the new Walt Disney World store. A ribbon-cutting ceremony welcomed the first guests into the new retail space as cast members gathered for the celebration.

A 3D character display, magical walls, and a sculpted castle in the center atrium inspire delight for guests visiting this new addition to the Orlando Airport, bringing a little piece of Disney magic to the terminal.

“I can’t wait to see all the amazing and magical things our cast are going to make happen in this beautiful new space,” – Rachel Swears, GM of Merchandise.

“This terminal represents international guests coming back to Walt Disney World, and this location is the perfect spot to welcome them back to our Central Florida community and the Disney magic,” – Matt Simon, VP of Disney Springs.

“You are going to be the cast members that our guests are going to see for the very first or last time on their vacation; I want to thank you for the magic you make every day and hope that you never underestimate the impact you have.” – Walt Disney World Ambassador Ali Manion.
