7. The BEST and WORST Disney World Changes This Year (And The Ones We WISH They’d Keep!)

Speaking of changes, we’re sharing the best and worst ones in this DFB video — giving our totally honest opinions! While we love the extra personal space, enhanced cleaning, and the shorter dining window, we’re really starting to miss things like fireworks and traditional character dining.

It’ll be pretty helpful to be prepared for the differences going into your 2021 trip, and by the time your travel dates arrive — who knows — some of these things might be back to normal!

8. Is Disney World Getting More Crowded?

When it comes to important planning questions, one of the biggest that comes to mind is: “What will the crowds be like during my trip?” A busy park can make or break your trip, and it’s good to have realistic expectations of how many people you’ll have to deal with on your Disney days.

The days of an empty park that we saw back in July are long gone, but we’ve got some advice on how to handle the masses. The good news is that with crowds returning, Disney is having to expand park hours and open more restaurants!

9. 12 Surprising Things That Haven’t Changed at ALL in Disney World This Year!

We’ve talked a LOT about changes, but what HASN’T changed? There are still several amenities being offered that were here before, and many of the planning details of a Disney trip are the same.

This video is important to check out while planning your trip, so that you familiarize yourself with Disney’s current policies and what you can expect in the parks!

10. I Changed My Mind About How I Eat in Disney World…

One of the biggest differences we’ve found in Disney World this year is in regards to the way we dine. With Mobile Ordering and outdoor dining more prevalent, plus the fact that guests must remain stationary while eating and drinking, we’ve had to adjust a lot of our old habits.

Now, and going into 2021, is the perfect time to try something new, eat somewhere different, and be more spontaneous with your food choices!
