The Complete “I’m Going To WDW” Guide has returned again with a fresh new dreamy overlay, and now it’s even easier than ever before to find the information YOU need to know! Let’s get started! There are some pretty awesome additions to this new version of The Complete "I'm Going to WDW" Guide - including all new information, travel reviews, more attraction bios, inside secrets, tour information, and so much more that we can hardly fit it all into one guide!

It’s important to plan ahead of time, and with this guide, you’ll have the best vacation at the place where dreams come true every day. Speaking of dream vacations, going on right now at Disney Parks around the world is the Year of a Million Dreams, a global get-together of each Disney park on the Earth celebrating the dreams of guests around the world through the magic of Disney Cast Members. It’s the biggest celebration this side of Neverland, and all the festivities are waiting for you! Exclusively for the celebration, Walt Disney World has cooked up brand new rides and attractions that you can't find anywhere else. Join Mike, Sulley, and all your favorite Monsters for comical chaos in the all new Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor Comedy Club, now open at the Magic Kingdom. Nemo's lost again! Hop in your own clammobile and join Marlin, Dory, and Nemo for an unforgettable adventure through colorful reefs and beautiful drop-offs, all ending in an incredible journey through the giant, man-made tanks of the Living Seas. The Seas with Nemo and Friends is now making a splash at Epcot. And all new to Disney’s Animal Kingdom is Finding Nemo: The Musical.

So what are you waiting for? Go check 'em out! It’s all waiting for you during the Year of a Million Dreams! To help you get more of an idea of what rides are for you, there are now “Mickey Icons” () icons next to each potentially intense/thrilling attraction. One Mickey Icon means the ride is less intense, while five icons means the ride is VERY intense and should be carefully considered before riding. In addition, if you see a small orange O icon next to a restaurant, attraction, or any other form of entertainment, it denotes an "Oranges's Personal Pick". Without any further ado, I present to you the latest renovation of "The Complete 'I'm Going To WDW' Guide". My goal is to create a guide that will squeeze every last drop of magic out of your vacation, so enjoy! The Complete "I'm Going to WDW" Guide Introduction Theme Parks Water Parks Resorts

Disney legend has it that after a freak winter storm blanketed the area with snow, Florida's first ski resort was born. When temperatures returned to normal, the powdery snow turned to slippery slush. Slalom courses, bobsled and toboggan runs became downhill waterslides. The chair lift carried swimmers instead of skiers. The ski jump became the tallest, fastest waterslide in the nation. Plunge into the chills and thrills at what is now known as Disney's Blizzard Beach, the most slushy, slippery, exhilarating beach water park anywhere! There's "snow" place like it!

Disney legend has it that a furious storm once roared across the sea, hurling surfboards into trees, blowing small boats through roofs and impaling a shrimp boat on a peak of a great volcanic mountain. Left in the typhoon's wake was a water park filled with twisting tides, roaring rapids, wonderful waterways and relaxing rivers. Whether you are navigating the nine exhilarating waterslides and streams or conquering one of the world's largest artificially created waves, Disney's Typhoon Lagoon promises the most wild, wonderful and wet water adventure known to man - or fish. Must Sees Big Thrills!

Nope. Didn't copy them from anywhere. I've been to WDW so many times I pretty much memorized where everything is at. I'm also pretty creative so I could come up with some pretty catchy attraction bios.

You know, staying at a Disney resort has more benefits than you ever imagined. The fun just doesn't stop there! Disney's Magical Express Start your vacation the moment you land at Orlando International Airport by taking Disney's Magical Express! Disney's Magical Express Benefits:
It does not matter what airline you fly through to use Disney's Magic Express, but you must be on American Airlines, Continental, Delta Air Lines/Song, JetBlue, Northwest Airlines, or United/Ted to utilize the Resort Airline Check-in service. Upon arriving at the Orlando Internation Airport, those using Disney's Magic Express must check in at the Disney Welcome Center. The Disney Welcome Center is in the Main Terminal Building of Orlando International Airport on the A side on Level 1. The hours are 6:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m., but they will be happy to extend those hours if you have booked Disney's Magical Express Service before your flight and it is scheduled to arrive after 11:00 p.m. The approximate travel time from the Orlando International Airport is 45-75 minutes. The motor coaches may make up to three (3) stops before arriving at your Resort hotel. If you have to change your flight information before arriving at the Walt Disney World Resort, you may call the same number used to make your room reservation. While at your Resort hotel, contact your Resort hotel Front Desk for assistance. If you did not receive your Disney's Magical Express information packet, including vouchers and luggage tags prior to leaving your home, get on your flight like normal. Once you arrive at Orlando International Airport, please proceed directly to the Disney Welcome Center (A side, Level 1). You do not need to claim your luggage. Disney will obtain your information, collect your luggage and deliver it to your room at your Resort hotel. At the Disney Welcome Center, you will be asked for your airline baggage claim checks and a brief description of your luggage. You will also be asked to confirm your return flight information if you are using Disney's Magical Express Service for transportation back to Orlando International Airport at the end of your stay. It may take up to three (3) hours after you check in to your Resort hotel for your luggage to be delivered to your room. You do not need to be in your room to receive your luggage. Please pack any valuables, medications or anything you need immediately upon your arrival in Orlando in a carry-on bag. You must check in at the Resort Airline Check-In Desk located in the lobby of select Walt Disney World® Resort hotels up to 12 hours prior to your flight departure time (but no less than three hours prior) during operating hours. A valid government issued photo ID and Key to the World Card (your hotel room key) are required to participate. * Disney's Magical Express Service is available to Walt Disney World Resort Guests arriving at Orlando International Airport, with exception to those Guests staying at Disney's Vero Beach Resort and Disney's Hilton Head Resort. This service is also not offered for the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin hotels, Shades of Green, and the Downtown Disney Resort Area Hotels. Extra Magic Hours Each day one of the Disney Theme Parks opens an hour early or stays open up to an extra three hours after regular Park closing, so Guests of Disney Resorts have the opportunity to play more in the Parks.
In order to prove that you are taking advantage of the Extra Magic Hours, there are special areas around the park where you need to pick up a wristband. You MUST have each member of your family's room key to get a wristband. Without this band, you will not be able to ride any of the attractions, eat at the cafes, or shop in the stores. EMH Mornings give wristbands to you at the ticket turnstiles. EMH Evenings hand out wristbands from 7pm to 11pm. Select attractions are open during these extra hours. Check your News, Guides, and Extras pamphlet you get when you first check into your hotel to see what rides/shows are open. Resort Transportation Save time and money thanks to complimentary transportation throughout Walt Disney World® Resort, including motor coaches, water taxis and the Monorail.
