A lot is on the horizon for Disney World in 2025. We're not just talking about the major construction projects underway at Animal Kingdom and soon to begin at Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios.
There's a significant policy shift taking place. Disney is now offering a new perk for guests staying at its hotels—a complimentary day at Disney World’s water parks on arrival day. Surprisingly, this perk is causing some major challenges.
With this freebie, a surge of visitors is flocking to the water parks. Despite Disney offering transportation services, many guests opt to drive, leading to a big issue.
During a recent visit to Blizzard Beach, reopened in late 2024, we learned the parking fills up quickly, particularly on weekends, sometimes by noon. While you can still visit the park, you might need to park elsewhere and rely on a Disney shuttle or rideshare.
If you still plan to drive and find the lot full, you might be redirected to park at Animal Kingdom and catch a shuttle bus. Consider arriving early or after 4 PM when the crowd thins out, though the park closes at 6 PM.
Managing a Disney trip can be overwhelming, so if you'd rather not stress over it alone, consider contacting Small World Vacations. Their agents work to find you savings and share tailored advice for a magical experience.
