Nomad Lounge’s $49 Annual Passholder Deal
From October 20 through December 18, Passholders can claim two small plates and two drinks for $49 at one of the park’s most peaceful spots. The lounge is also taking reservations for the first time. Nomad Lounge has always felt like a quiet pocket inside Disney’s Animal Kingdom — the kind of place where the air softens after a long walk through Pandora or a hot afternoon on the Kilimanjaro Safaris.

Jingle Cruise Returning to Magic Kingdom
There’s a particular kind of quiet that settles over Adventureland in early November, right before the Christmas lights fully take over Main Street. On November 3, that quiet ends the moment the Jungle Cruise sign trades its usual lettering for a candy-cane “i.” Jingle Cruise is back.
