My Disney Experience Adds a New Transportation Alert

Disney relies heavily on the My Disney Experience app, and now they have added a new feature to help navigate the Walt Disney World Resort. What do you think of this new addition?

My Disney Experience app

Although many guests would rather not be on their phone while on vacation, the My Disney Experience app for Disney World Guests is truly invaluable. After all, it has everything you need to enjoy a magical vacation! 

Like all apps, it receives regular updates to improve the overall guest experience.

Just recently, Disney streamlined viewing your daily plans with the new "My Plans" feature, and is testing a new feature to search for merchandise availability.

Disney Parking Paused

Disney now offers a new feature on the My Disney Experience app that is a welcome addition.

Earlier, Disney warned guests, "Due to limited capacity, Disney Springs may need to occasionally pause parking and pedestrian entry." Large road signs warned guests of closures only once they were driving towards Disney Springs.

This was quite frustrating for many Guests, but now a new feature shares parking alerts on the My Disney Experience app.

New My Disney Experience Update

Listed under the Park Hours, guests can now check parking availability at Disney Springs. Under the operating hours for Disney Springs, a warning message will appear in red that "Parking Currently at Capacity."

My Disney Experience app now alerts guests when parking is at capacity.

This is a great new update, especially with the Lime Garage closing for several weeks for a long refurbishment. The Lime Garage will have a phased closure with the first phase beginning January 12 through February 11, and the second phase beginning February 17 through March 13.
