Spaceship Earth Refurb

In a rumor going around on the WDW Magic Boards member t3techcom18 states that the Spaceship Earth refurbishment will be pushed back and that the fan-favorite attraction will reopen when Epcot does on July 15th!

According to the Local 362 Union, the union responsible for representing Attractions, answered a question in a Zoom meeting regarding SSE’s rehab HAS been pushed back and WILL reopen with the rest of the park.

Last week we shared the news about Spaceship Earth closing starting on May 26th for refurbishment as part of the exciting transformation of Epcot.

As of right now the attraction still shows closed for refurbishment on the Disney World website.

As soon as we receive the official word we will share it here on Chip and Co.

News! Disney World is Notifying Guests of Their Canceled Dining Reservations

Last week, Disney World’s official reopening date was announced, but with this big news came much confusion.

Breakfast a la Art Entrees

Since Disney World would have to operate with a limited capacity upon reopening, we were told a brand new reservation system would be implemented.

This meant temporarily suspending ticket sales and hotel reservations as well as canceling every existing FastPass, and every dining reservation Disney World had on its books. All Disney Dining Plans have also been canceled at this time.

All of this news was a lot to take in. In fact, it was so unbelievable, a lot of folks quickly went into their MyDisneyExpeience apps to see if in fact their reservations had been canceled, but they were even more confused when they saw all of their plans were still there!

Topolino’s Terrace

Keep in mind — Disney World has thousands upon thousands of guest reservations to work through and it’s going to take some time to cancel them all. Just today, one of our team members received an email notifying her one of her dining reservations had been canceled.

The email states, “As a result of limited capacity, we have made the difficult decision to cancel existing dining reservations.” and that some dining and other experience bookings may be suspended up Disney World’s reopening such as character meals.

Character dining is not expected to resume when the parks reopen. Learn more here!

Guests will not be charged any cancelation fees and that all pay-in-advance experiences will be credited back within seven days of the reservation date.

Clear Some Room on Your Fridge For THESE Adorable New Disney Kitchen Magnets in Disney Springs!

And the cuteness just keeps on comin’! While only moments ago we told you about the adorable new Popcorn Phone Cases and the new Rainbow collection stuff we’d spotted at World of Disney in Disney Springs this morning, you gotta see what we just stumbled upon NOW!

World of Disney

While we didn’t think our day could get much better after seeing these sparkly new Rainbow Mickey Ears (which we’ve only seen online so far), we were blown away by this adorable set of Disney Kitchen Magnets!

Just like coffee mugs, we seem to have developed a Disney magnet-collecting habit over the years! You can barely see our refrigerators underneath all the magnets we’ve picked up at the parks. But lack of space isn’t going to stop us from grabbing this new Disney Kitchen Magnet Set for $12.99!

Disney Kitchen Magnet Set

How can we pass up something this FABULOUS?! Plus, the collection includes FIVE magnets, so it’s kinda a steal of a deal, ya know? We love the little nods the set features to some of our favorite Disney rides like this magnet which resembles a stack of Mad Tea Party-themed mixing bowls!

Disney Kitchen Magnet Set

We spotted a set of mixing bowls that looked like this magnet at World of Disney along with a bunch of other cool kitchen items recently! See them all here!

Meanwhile, Cinderella Castle is getting a royal “oven mitt” makeover! We can’t help but smile when we look at this little magnet!

Disney Kitchen Magnet Set

Check out the latest progress on the real royal makeover of Cinderella Castle here!

There’s also this adorable Cinderella Castle spatula magnet we think Cindy herself would flip over!

Disney Kitchen Magnet Set

We can’t wait to roll out some dough with this Mickey rolling pin magnet in our kitchen! Our baking game is seriously on point right now!

Disney Kitchen Magnet Set

And this Enchanted Tiki Room whisk magnet is our favorite one of them all! Too bad it doesn’t SING, but we still love it anyway!

Check out this new set of Disney Kitchen Magnets at World of Disney today.

NEWS: Morimoto Asia in Disney World Has Reduced Their Hours

Morimoto Asia and Morimoto Street Food reopened on May 22nd, and we stopped by to check out their new health and safety measures — as well as sample some of their tasty Bao Buns!

BBQ Pork Bun

And while we’ve also been back to enjoy some Beer Cheese as well as a Rice Bowl and Egg Roll combo, we’ve just learned these two spots will be operating with reduced operating hours starting today!

According to Morimoto Asia’s Instagram, the restaurant will be open from 4PM to 6PM while the quick grab ‘n’ go Morimoto Street Food will be open from noon to 6PM.

This is likely because Orange County (which includes Orlando) has a new curfew in place from 10PM to 5AM.

And keep in mind Morimoto Asia is also offering Cast Members a 20% discount for a limited time which you can learn more about here!

Have you been back to Morimoto’s restaurants since they’ve reopened? Let us know if you’ve stopped by in the comments below!
