Thunder Mtn Railroad is closed down currently...

...reopening next year with a new theme. Cool thing about Star Tours is that even though it is an older ride, they have updated it some with new locations and you can get a different experience each time. Aerosmith coaster is going away as is Muppets Vision 3D, both closing later this fall I believe. The Muppets will be getting a new coaster where Aerosmith's is. I'll also add...Everest at AK is a very underrated coaster. ** Edited by vthokieq at 5/21/2025, 8:31:55 AM

Have fun. The parks get really crowded these days but it is still fun.**
OrlandoHokie • 05/21/25 10:24 AM ET
Lightning Lanes are a definite must. I wouldn't consider going without

Guardians ride at Epcot is the best ride at all those parks.
vthokieq • 05/20/25 11:01 AM ET
Yeah, we decided against Epic. We took one of our kids
hoosnowahokie • 05/20/25 11:07 AM ET
Enjoy... I guess that is possible**
turkeywinghokie • 05/20/25 10:54 AM ET
No. Not possible. **
Coach McGuirk • 05/20/25 11:14 AM ET

MP4VT2004 • 05/20/25 01:06 PM ET
I recommend dropping the kids off and heading to a pool bar.**
HwoodHokie • 05/20/25 10:33 AM ET
Look at the park maps and plan your stops accordingly. Magic Kingdom...
Spud • 05/20/25 10:30 AM ET
I would have recommended a side trip to Legoland for the Star Wars stuff
JoesterVT • 05/20/25 10:28 AM ET
Never, ever go in August. Heat and humidity nearly killed us.
TomTurkey • 05/20/25 10:26 AM ET
Well we're going in a couple weeks, which isn't August, soooooooo**
hoosnowahokie • 05/20/25 10:45 AM ET
Hopefully, June is better. We honeymooned in December. Nice!**
TomTurkey • 05/20/25 10:58 AM ET
Good luck, and dress for the heat
