Worst service ever. Rides keep “breaking down” last minute 15 minutes before closing. What’s the chance of that? It shows that the workers don’t care about the people, and only the pay. So lazy. The Frozen Ride got cancelled so we had to go later, and they wouldn’t let us in but when we told them we had a DAS they did. (They don’t want to get in trouble). They just cancelled the Star Wars ride last minute. They cancelled and said stuff “broke down” a few more times too.
Service: 2/10
Food: 6/10
Price: 3/10
Fun: 4.5/10

This review is for the Magic Kingdom. The Disney name comes with the expectation of being the best. The day we were there they had some problems that restricted our plans. Some of the rides broke down during the day but they seemed to get them open later on. It's A Small World, Peter Pan's Flight, and the Disney Railroad train ride around the park were the ones that we noticed. I know that things break but it was sad that we did not get to go on them. For the price you pay for admission and ALL the extras we expected better.

April is a great time to head Disney it's right after the spring break traffic so wait times are less. Magic Kingdom was great all around from the food at Casey's Corner to the small and large attractions that are for all ages! Prices for merchandise and genie+ are worth it.

Take nothing away from WDW - it remains a great vacation spot, but ….
Having spent the past 6 days at all the parks I have a number of observations/ conclusions:
1. Don’t both with Genie+ as you need to buy it before you know what availability you can get and you can’t book next attraction until you are on the first ride . We booked our first ride 12 seconds after the 7 am start and got our first slot at 1130 . By the time you can book your second ride times are into the late afternoon / early evening. Ok if adults but no good if you have young children
2 . WDW is packing more and more punters in who are already paying hefty admission ticket prices in the knowledge that you are unlikely to do more than 2-3 popular rides in a day . Conclusion - don’t expect to spend any more than 60 mins on attractions out of an average day of 10 hours.
3. Lightening lane guests have huge advantage ( they have of course paid for it ) . Stood for 109 mins at Frozen attraction in Epcot and would estimate that lightening lane guest through put was 100 times than of standby guests.
4. WDW have made their App all inclusive which is great if you are there for long stays or an IT guru. The App is confusing and over complicated.
In conclusion I would say that WDW has undoubtedly put profit ahead of guest satisfaction and this will remain until large enough numbers of guests make their view known .

We paid for Disney Gene+, We paid for individual Lighting Lanes, We got there early, We stayed late. I have gone to Disney many times but now all the Magic is gone. Disney Gene+ was $35 and we got to choose TWO RIDES. Only One of those choice was what I wanted. Second one ???? there is no other good choice left as everything was sold out. We started making choices from 7AM (earliest possible time) and still could not even chose TWO rides of my choice. Disney over sold Gene+ and with that we simply could not get the ride we wanted even with extra pay $$$$. Some line up exceeded waiting time of three hours. We paid $25 per person for Rise of Resistance at Hollywood Studio. We were given 8:30-9:30 slot which conflicted with firework time. We were finally on the ride and it stopped. We had to get off the ride and walk down the stairs. With some fight, we got park hopper ticket to come back next day. Customer Relation told us we got $400 upgrade but I argued what actual benefit did I get at all when I didn't intent to come back to that park next day and now I have to spend extra time to come back and waste time. Park Hopper is not upgrade if I never intended to Hop.

Too crowded and too long wait time. Disney could have done much better if organization was better. Disney does not value quality and inovation anymore

I have been going to WDW since it first opened in the 70s. The last two times the magic was gone. Wait times are beyond excessive, ticket and food prices ar3 ridiculous. Genie+ is a joke and huge waste of money.

Good points - parks are pristine, kept so clean and they truly are beautiful.
Staff mostly very attentive, helpful and welcoming - the UK could learn a thing or two here!
The hotel bus stops are staffed at night meaning people queue jumping won’t away with it - I don’t think they have staff manning the bus stops in Paris, and it’s a free for all. Not good.
No smoking in the parks. I’m sure they have this rule in Paris but it’s not enforced and there’s people smoking everywhere. Not a single person smoking in Florida.
We arrived very late for our reservation at chef mickey and instead of flat out telling us we’d lost our reservation (like they would in the UK), they said they were glad we made it in the end and showed us to our table. The buffet breakfast was great as was the service from our waitress.
Use the app to keep an eye on queue times for each ride. ONE afternoon we got lucky and managed 7 rides in magic kingdom.
Not so great points -
People using mobility scooters get to jump the queue at the hotel bus stops. Very unfair as the people we saw using scooters were overweight not necessarily disabled. Yet we saw a genuinely disabled person who evidently had a leg disfigurement, stood in a massive queue but because they hadn’t hired themselves a scooter, they were completely overlooked. Not all disabilities are visible either Disney! Also, what about really young children late at night, waiting ages in a queue because these mobility scooters keep turning up and being given first dibs. Each scooter took up about three seats on the bus. This really caused a lot of disgruntlement in the queues. Also, what if we all decided to hire a mobility scooter!
As beautiful and magical as the parks are, they are so busy and the ride queues that long, Disney becomes just another regular theme park. After already spending a fortune booking our holiday, we then ended up having to fork out for fast passes but because of how genie plus works, we still only got on 3-4 rides a day!!! And talking of money, be prepared to shell out, it’s tip, tip, tip in America, even the bar staff when ordering a drink!
We have visited Paris a few times and a lot of what we saw in Florida was just replicated. There were some things we thought were better in Paris eg space mountain ride.
We stayed at all star music resort. Rooms were okay but bathroom desperately small for a family for 1 week and tiny black bugs on the floor every day.
Other guests at times literally had zero consideration. One morning at 6.30 we were woken by another guest loudly having a conversation on the phone right outside our door about the slinky ride…when I opened the door to ask her to be quiet she apologised as she obviously thought she was outside another room but still, the volume at 6.30am!!! Same late at night past 11pm, zero consideration. Disney turns some people into frantic zombies.
We would definitely return to Florida, probably not Disney unless they did something about the sheer amount of people they let in each day. It’s like having the magic at your fingertips but you can’t actually get to any of it. Such a shame.

I rode the Jungle Cruise (which I would not reveal) at Magic Kingdom with a little child. Towards the end of the cruise, while the boat was stopped for a while, the female boat captain started asking the guests where they were from. When she asked us and I replied that we were from Korea, she sarcastically said, "Phew, I’ve never even heard of such a country." My child seemed not to hear that and another guest nearby offered me words of comfort. I felt quite upset, but didn’t responded to that comment.
I think that staffs at Disney should not ask such a question and reply in such a rude way if they know only a small number of countries in the world.

We had an absolutely fabulous time at the princess lunch and the rides that day. The following day my granddaughter got sick and they refused to give money back only saying we could use it the next day but we were flying home the next day.. I'm not sure if there is still that days money on the cards they gave us at the gate that we could use in the future.
