Disney4me Posted December 31, 2024 Report Share Posted December 31, 2024 If you’re heading to Disney World in 2025, you may be a little overwhelmed with everything there is to plan. Big Thunder Mountain Railroad However, while you’re thinking of when to book your trip, what to pack, and how many days to spend exploring the parks, we also need to warn you that there are some cringey things we’ve seen guests do that we are 100% BEGGING for you to not repeat when you’re visiting the parks in 2025. Changing Your Child Anywhere Near Food We completely understand that sometimes desperate times call for desperate measures and you have to stop on a bench or somewhere less ideal to change your kiddo who may had a diaper blowout, spilled something nasty all over themselves, etc. However, if you can’t make it to a restroom or the baby care center to change them, PLEASE make sure you are nowhere near food or an dining location. Pinocchio Village Haus Many restaurants in Disney World have outdoor seating locations, and this is NOT a good place to change your child. So much food has been flying around this area, it’s just not sanitary for you, your child, or anyone who comes after you. Just take a few steps away out of the dining area to get a little further away from food, or if you are trying to find the closest bathroom, you can also always search on your My Disney Experience App for the closest one to you AND get directions to it! Being Rude to Cast Members We completely understand that sometimes your trip gets extremely stressful. Something doesn’t go your way, you missed a dining reservation or virtual queue window — the possibilities are endless. However, it is NEVER okay to yell or be rude in any way to a Cast Member. Merchandise Cast Member! Cast Members make the magic, and oftentimes they can help you fix an issue you may be having. Whether that’s helping explain to you how you can fix the issue, or making some magic for you to improve the situation, Cast Members will often do whatever they can to help. However, never EXPECT a Cast Member to go above and beyond for you, and don’t get upset with them if they can’t magically fix every single thing. Many times the issue you’ve run into is your own doing (sorry if that’s harsh, but it’s true), and Disney is often happy to help you fix it, but certainly not if you’re being a jerk! Not Keeping An Eye on Your Kids Disney World is BIG, LOUD, and extremely overstimulating for almost every single person who walks through it. With that being said, it’s extremely important for you to keep an eye on your kids, especially your young kids, all throughout the day. For one, it can be very dangerous for kids to wander around on their own (Disney World is typically extremely safe, but people can be dangerous anywhere), but also, kids sometimes have a tendency to break some rules without realizing they’re doing it. Magic Kingdom Crowds Without parents nearby, kids may get themselves hurt climbing on items they’re not supposed to, and if you’re not near them to correct them or catch them when they fall, it could get bad really fast. Not to mention that if you’re in line and your kids are play fighting and bumping into people in front or behind you, that’s just not fair to the other guests around you. Stopping in the Middle of Walkways It’s hard sometimes to remember how many other people and families are on vacation the same time you are, and we don’t mean that in a sarcastic way! When you’re so focused on where you’re going and what your next move is, it’s hard to think about how others around you are doing the same thing. However, the more you can avoid stopping in the middle of public walkways to wait for your group/regroup/to check your phone would be fantastic. Be aware of your surroundings in crowds and lines! This blocks the flow of traffic for everyone, especially those using ECVs or wheelchairs, and as ECVs can’t stop on a dime, they can run into other people and cause some pretty serious injuries. To avoid these issues, it’s best to pull over to the side of the pathway to speak with your group/check your phone. Even if you think you’ll only be paused for a second, a second is enough to cause issues for everyone behind you!
