I miss when retail store website and app had functional search features and would return 0 results if they did not have an item instead of the new way where even if there is a match it’s buried 100 items deep with unrelated items.

Bob Iger met with Taylor Swift to listen to “I Knew It, I Knew You” before stepping down as Disney CEO:

“Thank you Taylor! One of my last days as CEO of Disney and a truly memorable one!”

NEW: Disney Celebrates America: The Pursuit of Happiness, a 2-hour ABC special airing June 29, will use locations like Main Street, U.S.A. and Tomorrowland to tell stories of American innovation, achievements, traditions and historic "firsts."

"In this coast-to-coast event, Disney Parks and attractions are the portal through which America's greatest stories, triumphs, and traditions are celebrated."

[Scott Gustin @ScottGustin]

Disney says Walt Disney World will celebrate America's 250th anniversary with patriotic lighting on Spaceship Earth, Voices of Liberty performances, the Electrical Water Pageant, Main Street, U.S.A. décor, character experiences, and limited-time food across the resort.

@ScottGustin @dsnymike Completely agreed. I’m heartbroken that the ride which was my grandparents favorite, and the ride I have precious memories with them on is going to be gone forever (I lost them a couple years back too) but the point was always to update the ride. Bittersweet for me.

NEW: Walt Disney World announces upcoming major improvements to the My Disney Experience app, including:

• Redesigned homepage with trip details, travel parties, and key planning steps

• New pre-arrival checklist

• Simplified family and friends linking

• Upgraded search discovery

• Spanish translations

I’ll have more details and thoughts in a Substack article this weekend.

If you don’t like Carousel of Progress, it’s a huge red flag. How do you hate optimism, animatronics, and air conditioning all at the same time?

New #DisneyCruise Alcohol Policy

Changes include:
• Guests limited to 1 bottle of Champagne/Wine or a 6-pack of beer.
• Corkage fee dropped from $29 to $20.
• Wording now states beer and wine purchased in port of call will be collected and stored.

[Scott Sanders @TheDCLBlog]

New #DisneyCruise Stateroom Door Decoration Policy

Guests decor will be limited only the stateroom door. This means avoiding items placed on the ceiling or on the hallway walls. Although the policy doesn’t explicitly state this, guests should exercise restraint to prevent door decorations from extending outward into the hallway. The decoration policy does NOT impact Fish Extenders as those are still permitted to hang outside your stateroom.

@TheDCLBlog I think of you every time I check that box

Disneyland Resort shared an operational update due to the chemical incident roughly 5 miles away in Garden Grove.

"While the situation remains fluid and we may see road closures and minor traffic disruptions, there is no direct impact on park operations at this time."
