It is never fun to see an attraction close at Disney World, especially when it is forever. At all of the Disney theme parks, attractions tend to close all of the time. Take Walt Disney World Resort, for example; today alone, there are over 20 ride closures, including Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, Big Thunder Mountain, Kali River Rapids, Spaceship Earth, Slinky Dog Dash, Pirates of the Caribbean, and more. While none of these closures were planned, they all occurred all the same.

When many think of an Orlando vacation, typically, the first theme park that comes to mind is Walt Disney World, and considering it is the size of San Francisco, we are not surprised. Disney World is home to four theme parks: Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and Disney’s Animal Kingdom — as well as two water parks, Disney Springs, golf courses, over 25 sprawling resorts, hundreds of dining locations, and so much more.

For many Disney World enthusiasts, Rope Dropping is not just a strategy; it’s a tradition. The term “Rope Drop” refers to the practice of arriving at the Disney park before opening, waiting at the designated entry point (often marked by a literal rope), and then heading straight to your favorite attractions as soon as the park officially opens. This approach is beloved by Disney fans for its promise of shorter wait times and the thrill of being among the first to experience the magic each day.
