Exploring the International Disney Parks

Disney World and Disneyland aren’t exactly the same, so why should the other Disney parks abroad be similar?  If you ever get the chance to travel to an international Disney park, perhaps to Tokyo Disneyland for the new D23 convention this fall, you might notice a few differences from the domestic ones.  BBC Travel did a report on some of the unique things that set the international parks apart. One of the most obvious differences is the food.  While you can get some international food at Disney Parks, especially at Epcot at Disney World, it’s still not standard.  Obviously, that’s … Continue reading

Disney Deals Abroad

Just as the domestic Disney parks periodically update and change their special offers page, so do the international Disney parks. It’s time to take a look at the summer deals for Hong Kong Disneyland and Disneyland Paris. Hong Kong Disneyland has some special hotel and ticket packages, just like Disney World and Disneyland, but the deals don’t quite work the way that they do for the domestic parks.

For my daughter, there’s just 2 week and 4 days left until school lets out for the summer and she’s already planning what she’d like to do on her summer vacation (and if you think Disney is on the top of that list, you’d be right). In the meanwhile, let’s talk about what we covered this week in the Disney Blog: Sunday, April 29 We talked about … Continue reading

Disneyland Paris Turns 15

I remember when Disneyland Paris first opened. Can it really be 15 years ago? Apparently so! Although, much younger than Disneyland in California and Disney World in Florida, Disneyland Paris has made it’s mark on the social landscape and become a destination for millions from around the world. The birthday celebration comes at a time when Disney is also celebrating it’s Year of a Million Dreams and the fan-favored Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End is set to premiere. I get excited just thinking about it! Euro Disney S.A.S. Chairman and CEO Karl L. Holz said: For 15 years, … Continue reading
