Duffy has never really hit it off with Walt Disney World guests and so he's going to be replaced by Daisy Duck. The last day that the Duffy character will have meet and greet duties at his World Showcase stop will be Oct. 3.

The change is part of Disney World's regular review of its entertainment options, a spokeswoman said Thursday. Duffy-related merchandise, including stuffed bears, will continue to be sold at various locations at Disney World, she said. 

Anyone who has ever stayed at a Disney resort hotel, you'll be familiar with the extra benefits that come with doing being a resort guest, such as having access to Extra Magic Hours. Extra Magic Hours allow a Disney Resort guest into the park for an additional extended time before or after other guests staying offsite, making it an added free bonus to staying onsite when you visit Walt Disney World.

However, Disney has just changed the game with an announcement that a new paid after hours event called “Disney After Hours” will be available for purchase.

In their latest post, the permanently entertaining Tim and Jen Tracker posted a video from the queue of the new Kong! attraction at Universal Islands of Adventure and give a quick review afterward.

Toy Story Land, a VR LEGO coaster and the high-octane Fast & Furious – Supercharged are among the many Orlando attractions set to open in 2018.

The Theme Park Capital of the World will be home to new thrill rides, water attractions, movies, hotels and dining experiences.

“Every Orlando vacation is unique, with so many attractions and activities for visitors to mix and match, but 2018 will be an exceptional year for experiences that really stand out,” said George Aguel, President and CEO for Visit Orlando.

Sure there has been a lot of publicity lately about the new Star Wars, Toy Story and Avatar lands at Walt Disney World, but those expansions are still years away. Don't fret though, there is a lot happening between now and then, just next year there are several major new projects and refurbishments taking place.
