Major Changes to Disney World Summer Itinerary Coming Soon!

REVISED SUMMER ITINERARY FOR WALT DISNEY WORLD COMING

Walt Disney World did its first release of it June 2014 operating calendar yesterday, and it revealed a different pattern of summer operations than has been the case the last few years.

As a result of these changes, my current integrated Summer Itinerary which I’ve offered for more than 5 years (with tweaks) won’t work as well as I’d like it too, and the issues are too big for tweaks. (For the current, won’t work, version, see this–but remember not to use it!)

So between now and the end of the month, I’ll be re-writing my summer itinerary.

My plan is to generate two summer itineraries:

• one that uses FastPass+, and
• a second one that relies solely on traditional Fastpass,

but with the same parks and restaurants on the same days and at the same time on each. By doing this, people will be able to do their dining reservations without having to know whether they will be using FastPass+ or traditional Fastpasses.

To build these, I’ll be using both my own experience and thinking, and also the thoughts of Josh of easyWDW.com (with his permission and collaboration–thanks, Josh!).

IRRELEVANT ASIDE

Josh’s site has become one of the most-copied Disney World sites on the web. (Mine is copied a bit, too…)  For what they are worth, here’s my thoughts for those extensively relying on the hard work of others:

• Do your own work–don’t pass off other people’s work as your own, or create the impression you’ve had an experience–like stayed in a certain resort–that you haven’t
• If what you publish relies on other peoples’ work, if it’s just a bit you’ve taken, give them credit and a link; if you are taking a lot, ask them for permission and how they’d like credit to be noted
• Above all, don’t take other people’s work, derive new-looking material from it, pass it off as your own, and then turn it into an e-book that you charge for!

OK, sermon over…and yes, I am both sinned against and a sinner on this topic, especially on the middle point! But I promise to do better…
