Disney LOVES these influencers!! I’ve seen them get tons of free things, and once even saw a family get free lodging in one of the Polynesian cottages on the water! They get invited to many Disney special events. Free lightning lanes, too! All because they have a lot of followers. Don’t think that they will get banned because it’s free advertising for the company.
Did anyone read the article? This applies to Tokyo Disney Parks. Since the US and Europe Parks make so much off the free advertising from these people you won’t see that outside of Asia. They reward the vloggers that are favorable to Disney with free things that at the end of the day doesn’t cost Disney hardly anything.
Thrilled about this. Most of these ‘vloggers’ spend 90% of their time moaning and bashing Disney, yet happy to take the ad gifted trips and make their coin. The vlogs most of the time offer anything interesting, entertaining or informative. You see more of their faces zoomed into the lense than you do the parks!
I don’t mind the vloggers – the ones I follow have been doing it for years, have credibility, and are very conscious of not ruining other people’s experiences. Plus, they act like reporters, bringing me news and updates and tips and tricks. They are the ones who helped me figure out Genie+ and maximize my experiences in the parks. Plus, it is clear that Disney regards them as “media” since many of them get invited to press events. And I don’t understand why people are in an uproar over Disney adults, since I am one of them.
The article fails to point out that the Tokyo parks are not run by the Walt disney company in any capacity. The oriental land company runs the operations of tge parks. This policy just affects those parks only cause it’s their own decision. The Walt disney company has no say in it. Will it be considered for the other parks, it’s hard to say but for right now it could be.
You don’t want to be photographed, then don’t go and just stay home. You go to any city and there are security cameras everywhere. They are in stores, the steps of people’s homes, traffic lights, buildings, literally everywhere. So inother words you want the whole world to stop videoing because you exist? Hahaha. Ok.
Vloggers @ Disney totally annoying especially those 50 year olds. Should be banned altogether, also sort of creepy and keeping others from enjoying the parks
I don’t think it should be banned for family related events, but there should be rules for influencers and they should need to pay a licence fee (as it is for making money and not for personal events) and sign a waiver to respect others and all rules from the parks.
I love the Tokyo parks and think this might be a good policy but they do take things to the extreme. We had a group visiting for the 25th anniversary and had gotten approval to do a group shot in front of the castle but apparently it hadn’t been communicated to park security so they wouldn’t let us do it. Big time annoyed as we wouldn’t even need approval for a pic at another park
Not happy about this! Sure, there may be a few annoying people, look past the screen. There’s plenty to look at on rides. Channels like DFB and Mammoth Club are a part of the magic too. They help us plan, stay in the loop, and stay excited. Disney is banning free advertising here too.
Just wanted to say, as a person with Illness and housebound, I miss Disney dearly! Vloggers who are respectful, like The Trackers or Ordinary Adventures give me so much joy. I might never be able to go to the parks again. Some days those video keep me from being depressed.

It’s about time.
And there should be a class action lawsuit against any profits those vultures already made.
