During the event, there will be special cavalcades available, as well as character appearances, access to some of Magic Kingdom’s rides, free popcorn, ice cream novelties, and select beverages, free candy, select additional food items available for purchase, and spooky decorations.

We had previously heard that this restaurant would be reopening this summer, but this week we got an official reopening date for Tusker House (June 20th). Reservations are now available for this spot, so be sure to book your spot early before things fill up!

Disney Cruise Line News

Disney Cruise Line and all cruise ships must meet some specific regulations in order to sail again from the United States. One of the requirements is the successful completion of test cruises unless the cruise line only agrees to sail with 98% of the crew and 95% of the passengers fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Now, it looks like Disney is taking steps to meet those test cruise requirements so it can get passengers on its ships again soon!

The Disney Magic

Recently, Disney Cruise Line received approval from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to conduct a test cruise and announced when its test cruise would be taking place! The test cruise will take place on June 29th from Port Canaveral with volunteer passengers onboard! We will definitely be keeping a close eye for any news about that test cruise and we’ll be sure to share it all with you.

Magical Express Replacement News

Earlier this year, Disney World announced that the Magical Express service will be discontinued in January of 2022. We’ve shared a look at the best ways to get from the airport to your Disney World hotel once the Magical Express is gone. One new option for airport-to-hotel transportation that will be available soon is Mears Connect.

Disney’s Magical Express

Mears is the company that currently operates the Magical Express for Disney. Some time ago, Mears announced that they will be offering a new service, Mears Connect, starting in 2022. This service will essentially replace the Magical Express as Mears notes it will provide transportation connecting the airport and Disney Resort area with the same “reliable, safe, express service” guests are used to.

Disney’s Magical Express Sign

Originally, reservations for Mears Connect were set to become available in May of 2021. The Mears Connect website, however, now says that reservations will be available “soon” and that guests will be able to make them during the summer of 2021. So it seems like there has been a slight delay there.

We’re still looking for more info on Mears Connect, including pricing information, and we’ll be sure to share all of that once we learn more!
