Change is always hard.

Let’s take a flight!

There are lots of changes happening right now in Disney World. 2025 is the last year to ride Dinosaur, the Muppets are moving over to Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster, and Test Track will have an all-new theme this year. While we are prepared for these changes, we just realized there’s going to be one subtle thing missing on your Disney trips.

Planning guide for the ultimate Disney vacation

We can all agree that your Disney trip really starts well before you ever make it to Disney World. If you’re anything like us, the moment your feet touch that special carpet at the Orlando International Airport is when your trip has finally started.

Welcome to Orlando!

That distinct carpet pattern is basically our red carpet leading us straight to our magical vacation, and if the MCO carpet is our red carpet, that makes the airport tram system kinda like our limo. It warms our hearts every single time we hear Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer welcome us to Orlando, and it just really makes it feel like we’re home.

However, it finally occurred to us that one of our favorite “welcome home” moments, that speech from Buddy Dyer, is going away! Last year, Mayor Dyer announced that the 2023 mayoral election would be his last. With his reelection last year, he became the longest-serving Orlando mayor in history and will continue in this position until 2027, when we can expect his voice will be removed from the trams.

Luckily, we will be able to hear him welcome us to Orlando for a few more years, but we are already in pre-mourning. Buddy Dyer has been the Orlando Mayor since 2003, so it will definitely be an adjustment on our Disney vacation. Do you think he knows he’s so connected to the beginning of our trips?
