Cast Member’s Corner: Handling Changes Like A Disney Prince and Princess

Walt Disney World like all of the Disney Parks has been going through a lot of major changes in the recent years.  Disney is constantly changing its parks, yearly and monthly things are changing even if they are just small changes.  These are to benefit the guests, making lines shorter, park time more enjoyable, and more memorable moments.  It is a big thing for everyone when these changes take place.  Guests may find their favorite rides temporarily down or Cast Member’s may find themselves learning new procedures or even new rides!  People might wonder what generally happens when all of these new changes are unveiled.  If you’ve visited Disney before when these changes have taken place you may already know how seamlessly Disney tries to incorporate them.  But what about with the Cast Members?

Cast Member’s Corner: Which Disney is Which?

I’ve noticed recently that sometimes folks, young and old, new to Disney and seasoned veterans, are getting a little turned around when they talk about Disney.  They will either say Disney World when they mean Disneyland and vise versa.  Though I have not heard of anyone confusing either of these with Disneyland Paris, Tokyo Disney, Hong Kong Disney, or soon to be Shanghai Disney.  This mix up is understandable.  After all, all of these parks share the name and ideas of Walt Disney.  Many of these parks also share rides and characters.  Many people just refer to all of the different properties as Disney, which isn’t wrong.  This probably adds to the confusion as well.

Cast Member’s Corner: Does the Learning Ever Stop?!

Two weeks ago I discussed the education you can gain at the four major parks at Walt Disney World.  Did anyone think about the places I’ve left out?  Surely if you’ve been to Walt Disney World before you’ve noticed the attention to detail that they’ve put into every place on property.  If you look deeper you’ll also see that there’s lessons to learn at all these places as well.
