Walt Disney World Resort hosted hundreds of media representatives last week for a preview of new elements in attractions, entertainment and dining.
The announcements ranged from a sneak peek at new theme park attractions such as Frozen Ever After and Soarin’ at Epcot, to a preview of the innovative nighttime experiences at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, to expanded dining options at Disney Springs, to exciting new adventures on the high seas with Disney Cruise Line.
“Thanks to the imagination and hard work of Disney Cast Members, we’re awakening summer with spectacular new things to see and do throughout our theme parks, resorts and other Disney experiences,” said George A. Kalogridis, president of Walt Disney World Resort.
Along with a wide-ranging list of construction jobs created to bring these new offerings to life, Disney has added 6,000 operational jobs, from attractions hosts to food and beverage to skilled mechanical jobs and management positions.
