Why You'll Regret Going to Disney World in 2025

I’ve seen the future and it’s filled with LOTS of fun at Disney World; but I can see a few regrets, too! We’re going to make sure you get all the fun and none of the negative!

Yes, please keep making these so we have less people in the Parks during our vacation 😂😂❤❤

I have three more 2025 trips booked for RunDisney 😅 but even with closures and construction, Disney is always a good time!

[debbos]

I’m hoping my trip in January will be a bit quieter than our trip 3 years ago. Don’t really care about the closures but I’m thrilled I can enjoy the river boat ride once more. Stay away everyone until 2026….. so those of us that do go to Disney in 2025 will have less crowds. 😅

23:03 this channel has seriously helped us find some of our fav food at Disney & avoid generic burgers and nuggets. While I don't agree with all, at least 80% of what DFB suggested that looked interesting to us, has been added to our favs list when we tried it. Obviously taste is subjective, but I agree with a majority & without DFB I don't think we would have even known to look for half of our favs.

At the risk of sounding odd, those tips for parents to avoid the meltdowns can also be applied to Highly Sensitive adults and those with ADHD. Kids aren't the only ones who need extra care from time to time.

I went in May of 2024 and decided that is going to be the last time I visit the parks. Their prices were not a true reflection of how much park passes cost on their website, so when we got there, I had money set aside that I had to save beforehand thinking it was one price, but it was actually 1 and a third more than I was expecting FOR EVERYTHING! Food, park passes, merch, parking. Hated that. It was fun while it lasted but I definitely will not be going back to Orlando for the forseeable future. A trip to Greece + airfare costs less than 4 days at Disney.

Another hidden cost is if you buy a souvenir at Olga’s Cantina, Trader Sam’s, or popcorn buckets, the Disney resort will not ship them home for you except through a third party shipper and it’s very expensive. Just paid $73 to ship my Figment and Prince Charming popcorn buckets home. Make sure souvenirs are not on a food or drink receipt.

I can't believe you actually titled this vid the way you did; WELL DONE. very few reviewers would do that !!!! Then I watched the entire vid (including your friend and husband who paid $17 for two big chicken nuggets), and realized it was not that negative a vid. I am a huge WDW fan and reply on hundreds of vids where others have commented "will never go again"; that's fine; there will be less crowds for those of us who love WDW

Love this video it's been really hard trying to get my 2 year old into all of this because it gets so overwhelming so thank you so much

While I'm not sure about all of this I do know 100% for sure you'll regret going in the summer. It's virtually unlivable outside now in central Florida in the summer and with cement everywhere, no shade and small children - your vacation will be miserable. Don't do it.

[NDER]

Specifically, don't go June 8-16th of 2025..thanks!!

[cupcakninja]

I feel Epic Universe will help thin the crowds after May 22nd

[HobbyPrincessHPG]

Hello my friend! Thank you so very much for all the, much needed, information. We appreciate that you shared about the "extended hours" with those yummy treats! How sweet of you to provide us with the "QR" code. Thank you! We love to visit Geoffrey's and Starbucks for our morning quick breakfast. We will definitely check out the "dining guides". We also thank you for sharing super information about the premiere pass. There is so much that we learned in this video. We are curious if there will be a Cinderella 75th anniversary celebration? We know that you will be the one to keep us in-the know! Although, we can't visit WDW as this year... you are bringing Disney to us! WE thatnk you VERY much AJ! Have a magicl week!💖💖

I’m soooo hopeful that there will be single rider lines in more rides - going solo in March.

[KP]

There was a maximum of 50 min wait times in all 4 parks last week. We got to ride everything we wanted easily 3 times. Cosmic rewind we only did twice, but it was the best.

[JordanBlueman]

Worth noting, since I never hear anyone specify *which* parks on *which* nights for Deluxe extended evening hours.

Spoke to a cast member recently who said it's been "permanently" locked in EPCOT Monday night, and Magic Kingdom Wednesday night, exclusively.

Paying Premium prices for mediocre benefits. After doing that at Universal Studios/Islands of Adventure and getting premium benefits, Disney leaves a sour taste. Hour early entry versus half an hour. Skipping the line over and over versus once, and that once is uber expensive.

[MelissaHolsopple]

Just means I will have to go back in 2026. I'm taking my mom to Disney in September since my dad passed away this past November.

[jorgeldejesus]

My best advice, skip Disney in 2025, only go to EPCOT if you like the Flower & Garden Festival or you want to join other Star Wars Fans at May the 4th on Galaxy Edge at Hollywood Studios, otherwise, go to Universal Epic Universe, or to Legoland, the true park with Kids in mind in Florida, 2025 is the year to skipp Disney

[dvferyance]

I am sure the lines will be longer for the 7 dwarfs mine trail while thunder mountain is shut down.
