5. The Introvert Sentinels – Logistician (ISTJ) and Defender (ISFJ)

Unlike the previous groups, Sentinels (sharing the IS traits) have a low tolerance for games and tomfoolery. Making up 13% of the population, both of their introverted groups are extremely common.

Logisticians (ISTJ) are non-nonsense folk who appreciate stability and calm. They are not likely to enjoy the wanton shenanigans of the Art of Animation resort or the endless activity of The Polynesian (though they may appreciate the scenery). They may enjoy traditional resorts like The Contemporary, The Yacht and Beach Club, or even Saratoga Springs for its peacefulness. Rather than zeroing in on a specific attraction, they are most likely to enjoy touring Disney World using a carefully detailed touring plan. They might want to spend a great deal of time at Magic Kingdom, but many Logisticians would probably greatly enjoy Epcot for its practicality.

Defenders (ISFJ) are a similar but wonderfully unique group. They are what many call social introverts—they love helping people! Defenders are likely to actually enjoy a vacation with others where they get to see friends and family enjoy a well-planned trip, so long as time to recharge away from crowds is planned. They are very altruistic and are more likely than Logisticians to enjoy areas like World Showcase where they meet people from around the world. They love seeing others enjoy themselves, so a friendly but low-pressure resort like Yacht and Beach Club, Port Orleans French Quarter, or the Boardwalk Inn may be a good choice. They may especially enjoy attractions where people are helping others, from the practical like Living With the Land to the imaginative like The Navi River Journey.

6. The Extrovert Sentinels – Executive (ESTJ) and Consul (ESFJ)

You will not find a more traditionally-valued personality group than Executives and Consuls (sharing the ES traits). Like the Introverted Diplomats, they have little use for games or the impractical, and they love order and planning. Both groups are likely to enjoy touring Disney World using a detailed plan with Fastpass+ and dining reservations put in place well before arrival.

Executives (ESTJ) are likely to be model citizens with popular American values. Indeed, they are likely to deeply enjoy attractions like The American Adventure and The Hall of Presidents! They love order and bringing community together, but they commonly care about status and public perception. Such a traditional group is very likely to enjoy visiting Magic Kingdom with their families, and their appreciation for quality accommodations will make resorts like The Contemporary, The Polynesian, and The Grand Floridian very attractive choices. They prefer to keep moving, so they are far more likely to enjoy the Seven Dwarves Mine Train and Toy Story Land than meandering through World Showcase.

Consuls (ESFJ) are extremely social with a strong sense of both duty and traditional values. They are likely to enjoy the late-night availability of an area like The Boardwalk, though they aren’t types for unusual behavior, so The Bay Lake Tower at The Contemporary might be a good choice. They appreciate the finer things and will likely love areas like Disney Springs, as well as some of Disney’s finer (but still traditional) restaurants like Chefs de France and the Flying Fish café. Like the Executives, they are likely to appreciate a more traditional Walt Disney World touring plan, hitting the most popular attractions in a reasonable flow.

Wow Jett, what an out-of-the-box article, I took the test and really enjoyed learning more about myself and how I might experience Disney attractions. I have not done the Myers-Briggs in a long time and it's cool to find out that I'm an INFP these days. I appreciate all the time you put into thinking about how each type would enjoy the rides, shows, and resorts. Your articles are always engaging! Thanks for sharing your talents with the internet community.
