We all know that a Walt Disney World vacation is magical in its own right, but have you ever wanted to add a little extra style to your stay? Big and Small, 11 Ways You can Add Extra Magic to Your Next Disney VacationWhether it's your first time or your tenth time, you can elevate the style of your Disney World vacation by adding a little extra magic and style (with something for every budget).  The Top 11 Ways to Upscale Your Walt Disney World Vacation with Style Here are 11 easy ways to add a little extra style and flair to your Walt Disney World vacation, they're not all cheap, but there is something here for every price point and Disney travel budget.  Want to Do Your Walt Disney World in Style so that Everyone Feels Extra Special? Why not surprise your travel party with one or more of these 11 Disney travel style experiences? 1. Limo Service $$ Ever since Disney's Magical Express disappeared, guests have had to pay for their transportation to and from Orlando International Airport. A great way to elevate the style of your Walt Disney World vacation is to start at the beginning: with a limo service from the airport to your Disney resort hotel (and back again). You have to pay for transport anyway, so for approximately $200 round trip (give or take a little) you can ride in style and really have a great experience. 2. Stay in a Deluxe Disney Resort Hotel $$$$ - $$$$$ One of the easiest ways to elevate the style of your Disney vacation is to stay in a Disney Deluxe hotel close to your favorite Disney Park. There really is a noticeable difference between Disney Value Resorts, Moderate Resorts and Deluxe Resorts. From a more magical ambiance, to dining, amenities and park proximity, staying in a Disney Deluxe resort hotel can definitely elevate the style of your Disney World vacation. There are Deluxe Resorts at different price points as well, so consider this awesome surprise for your travel party, who will definitely feel they've upgraded their Disney style.  Warming: Please note that it may be very difficult to downgrade your Disney resort hotel category after experiencing a Disney Deluxe Resort.3. VIP Tour or Backstage Experience $$$ - $$$$$ A great way to do Disney vacation in style is with a VIP Tour or other backstage experience or tour. Not only will you feel extra special on any guided tour, but this is Disney Parks style in its finest form. I mean, you get a lanyard (and sometimes more), so that says traveling in style right there…right? There are many tours from which to choose (from the ultra-premium VIP tour, to more price-friendly park-themed tours), so be sure to check them out and book in advance as they can fill up quickly.4. Disney Club Level Accommodations $$$$$ Staying in a Disney World Deluxe Resort is one thing, but you can elevate that experience even further if you really want to go in style. By choosing a Club Level room at a Deluxe Resort, you'll open up a whole new world of upscale style – from Club Level Lounge offerings to private Club Level Concierge's – that will really put the style meter to a whole new level. 5. Lightning Lane Premier Pass $$$ If a VIP Tour is not in your budget, the next best way to add a similar style experience to your vacation is with a Lightning Lane Premier Pass. With this pass, you and your party can use the Lightning Lane for every single attraction in one park, one time each, for one day, without having to make any reservations. Sound great? It can be and it's a good way to do a Disney Park in style.  6. Disney Fireworks Cruise $$$  Don't feel like standing in crowds to watch fireworks or the nighttime show at Magic Kingdom or EPCOT? No problem, do it in style by booking a fireworks cruise experience. Boats can hold up to 10 guests and you are chartering the entire boat, so if you have less than 10 guests this can really feel like the ultimate in Disney style. 7. Grand Floridian Spa Experience $$-$$$ Nothing says going in style like a relaxing time at a spa and the ultimate spa experience at Walt Disney World is located at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort and Spa (it's right in the name!). With an elegant Victorian style and a relaxing garden-inspired atmosphere, you can elevation your Disney vacation time with a spa experience that suits your style. There are even couple's offerings and something for your 14-17-year-olds if you they go with you. Relax and recharge in style after a day in the parks. 8. Stay in a Disney Deluxe Villa $$$$ - $$$$$ While a Disney Deluxe Resort is a worthy style elevation, you can take it in another direction by booking a Disney Deluxe Villa. With a Deluxe Villa, you'll get all of the amenities of the Deluxe Resort, but your room (studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom or three-bedroom) will be more like a vacation villa or condo than a hotel room. Relax in style with your own kitchen/kitchenette, dining area, laundry facilities and more. Make your Walt Disney World vacation a villa vacation (and you don't need to be a Disney Vacation Club member to book one). 9. Create Your Own Disney Popcorn Mix $  Want to go in style with your snacking? Who needs the same old snacks that any Disney guest can buy when you can custom create your very own Disney popcorn? This is a fun and inexpensive way to elevate your vacation snacking style. You can find this unique experience at the Kernel Kitchen in Magic Kingdom Park (where the old hat shop used to be in Town Square). 10. Capture Your Moment $$ Photo memories from Walt Disney World are classic, but you can take your in-park photo experience to the next level by booking a Capture Your Moment photos session in your favorite park. You'll definitely feel special during this experience and you'll come away with lifelong photo memories and a magical time! Search “Capture Your Moment” on the Disney World website. 11. Aerophile Hot Air Balloon Ride, Disney Springs $ If you want to elevate the style of your Walt Disney World vacation literally, then a hot air balloon ride at Disney Springs is definitely worth it. This is super fun on clear days and at night (if you time it with fireworks, you're in for an extra special treat), as you get some amazing views and photos from 400 feet in the air. Instead of just watching the Aerophile balloon soar over Disney Springs, why not surprise your group with an experience they'll never forget. The balloon holds 29 people, but there are times when it's not full to capacity, which makes it even more magical. Definitely a unique way to experience the world in style.Shop at 1923 Main StreetThank you for listening to the Disney Travel Style Podcast at 1923MainStreet.com.Shop unique and original Disney-inspired clothing, including t-shirts, sweatshirt, hoodies, dresses, swimwear and more at 1923 Main Street.Follow along on

Landon's driving and in a good mood, so why not try ruffling some feathers. Are you buying or selling on these actual and non-actual proposals?* * * * * *We hope our podcast hypes you up for your next trip.Brought to you by TJ, Matt and Landon...and sometimes Ben.Thanks so much for listening!We'll see you on Instagram: @disney.world.is.awesomeA Walt Disney World Podcast for Disney fans. Talking all things Magic Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, Epcot and Animal Kingdom.

In the 229th episode of The Main Street Electrical Podcast, Jenn & Dave are ready for the holiday season!   First, the question of "How many Christmas trees does Jenn have in her home?" is answered, as well as Dave's cleaning dilemma before putting up the tree in his home.  Then, a great look at the Christmas happenings at Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, Epcot, and Hollywood Studios, plus the resorts and Disney Springs!   An overview of the Festival of the Holidays... the Frozen Holiday Surprise in MK... a Deluxe Resort holiday display checklist... the Gingerbread Spaceship Earth... and lamenting the loss of some of our fave Holiday   

Hosts: Scott and Candice Episode Summary:In this episode, Scott and Candice dive into a heated yet essential topic that every Disney fan has encountered—entitlement in the Disney community. Why does it seem like everyone wants Disney to be tailored exactly to their budget and experience? Scott and Candice explore this question, focusing on how entitlement shapes the park experience and the complex expectations many visitors bring with them. They also discuss the newest Lightning Lane option exclusive to Deluxe Resort guests and unpack the mixed reactions to this tiered experience. From limited-time perks to fast-pass access, they break down what this means for the Disney community and how the evolving pricing structures are received by different groups. Behavior during “group activities”—like waiting in line, parades, and shows—is another area Scott and Candice touch on, reflecting on how guests' actions impact each other. Why do some parkgoers act out, and how can the community as a whole foster a better experience? Key Discussion Points: Entitlement in the Disney Community: The desire for Disney to fit everyone's budget and lifestyle, and whether that's realistic. The Latest in Lightning Lane: The new Lightning Lane option available to Deluxe Resort guests and the broader implications. Park Behavior: Thoughts on guest interactions during shared experiences, including ways to promote respect and enjoyment for all. Note to Listeners:Please excuse a few minor audio issues throughout the episode. We're aware and appreciate your understanding as we work to keep improving your listening experience.

Season 2, Episode 39 - Your Favorite Deluxe Resort and Why Your Favorite Deluxe Resort and Why Hey everyone, I'm Mike, she's Sophie, and that's Brenda, and we're On the Road with Mickey! This is Season 2, Episode 39 for September 27, 2021, and our feature topic today is Your Favorite Deluxe Resort and Why. For today's podcast we are concluding our three part look at our favorite resorts. Today we are looking at our favorite deluxe resort. As always, we want to hear from you. What are your favorites? Let us know in the comments! Now, here's the rundown of what we talked about: Updates from last week:We touched base on the Scat Cat's Club, which features both a lounge and a cafe. We learned this regarding beignets: “You can also pick up French Quarter's favourite signature tasty treat, fresh hot Beignets, and specialty coffees, in Scat Cat's Club Café, open from 6am until midnight. If you order beignets with a meal from the food court (which is only a few steps away) this will be the new pickup location. Again, no changes to the offerings apart from three new toppings/drizzle glaze options (Cinnamon-Sugar, Raspberry, or Chocolate).”Cheddar from the Big CheeseSophie: Duffy has made a new friend! She's a pink fox named Lina Bell and will make her debut in Shanghai Disneyland on September 29th!

George is the President of Segment Development & Enrichment for Disney Parks Experiences and Products. He was honored with a Window on Main Street, U.S.A. George has had a hand in many things during his career, like the creation of Disney Pin Trading, and the memorable “Frozen Summer Fun” at Disney's Hollywood Studios. He led the resort during a period of remarkable growth and opened Pandora—The World of Avatar, Toy Story Land and Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge; experiences which have become staples of a Walt Disney World vacation. Here is what the window says: “Be Our Guest. The Main Street Chamber of Commerce Invites you to Live - Work - Play In our Welcoming Community, Main Street, USA.

Boardwalk Inn - nearby resorts much better, have to go outside for all food and drinks, pool is creepy to many 7.) Grand Floridian Resort - good food, 1 monorail stop away from Magic Kingdom, but expensive, lacks Disney theming, inconsistent service 6.) Wilderness Lodge - smaller, dark rooms, frustrating transportation, food has improved 5.) Animal Kingdom Lodge - most gorgeous resort at Disney World, great onsite food, lower cost than most Deluxe resorts, animal views and lots of resort activities, does have service and transportation issues 4.) Yacht Club Resort - fantastic pool, great food, darker theming which may not appeal to all, walk to 2 parks 3.) Polynesian Village Resort - monorail access to 2 parks, fantastic food, studio villa rooms have an extra bathroom 2.) Beach Club Resort - 5 minute walk to Epcot, 15 minus walk to Hollywood Studios, bright and airy and smells good, best onsite pool, character breakfast, easy access to lots of great restaurants 1.) Contemporary Resort (main building) - best transportation or park access (walk to MK, buses at resort and MK bus stop, monorail), great food at resort, all views are good, monorail going through building is a thrill Quick tip of the day The My Disney Experience app causes a lot of problems for a lot of people, so consider using your phone's browser as a backup option if you run into issues. Not all of the functionality of the app can be found in the browser, but the ability to do things like make reservations, view plans, and check park hours comes in handy if you can't do it in the app. Subscribe to get new episodes There are a few ways to get new episodes of WDW Prep To Go (if you're used to listening on the website, subscribe so you can take new episodes with you on your phone) Subscribe in iTunes (and please leave a review!)

On this week's show, Rob and Kerri share the good and the bad from their recent stay at the Swan and Dolphin resort which is located on Disney World property but is not a WDW resort.

Walt Disney World's Value Resorts are very polarizing. Some guests who have stayed in them love them and will never stay in any Moderate or Deluxe Resort. I've heard others say they tried them and will never stay there again.

Should you stay in a Value Resort on your vacation to Walt Disney World? I'll give you the honest breakdown of what you can expect.
