Nowadays, having internet access is crucial to enjoying your Disney Parks vacation — dining reservations, MagicMobile, Lightning Lane management, and the entire Genie+ system are all online via the My Disney Experience app.
This means that slow internet services are more than a little bit frustrating for Guests.
Now, however, it seems that Walt Disney World officials may be upgrading their internet services throughout the Orlando, Florida property. A new construction permit for “Fiber Optic Expansion Phase I” indicates that the world wide web is about to get much fast for Guests.
The permit was filed on May 4, 2022 and does not list an expiration date. However, the vast majority of work permits expire one year from the date of their initial filing, so it is likely that “Phase I” of the project will need to be finished by May 4, 2023 unless Disney files for an extension.
