What's New in Magic Kingdom: Distancing Barriers Added to the Monorail and Valentine's Accessories!

We got to spend our sunny day yesterday in Disney World’s flagship park!

Cinderella Castle

Yup, we took a stroll around Magic Kingdom to see if we could spot anything new! Sure enough, we’re bringing you alllllll the updates in construction and merchandise!

Magic Kingdom Construction Updates

First up, our trip over to the park from the Transportation and Ticket Center showed us an interesting addition to the monorail. There are now dividers that split each bench into two sections.

Reflecting this change is a new sign posted at the Magic Kingdom station that notes it’s now one party per seating section (instead of row like before).

Standing is not allowed at this time. Here’s a peek at what the dividers look like from right next to them!

This is a pretty big change, and allows for more parties to be on the monorail at once.

Emporium

We spotted two new kids’ t-shirts in Main Street Emporium. The first is this cute Mickey Walt Disney World Longsleeve T-shirt for $24.99.
