4. Tomorrowland Transit Authority Peoplemover reopening date pushed back again

The Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover has officially been closed for a full year. And while that may seem like bad news for this attraction, the end of this long-running refurbishment may be in sight as Disney has announced a new reopening target of May 1, 2021 and guests have spied the attraction running with and without riding Cast Members in recent weeks, which is definitely a good sign.

5. Jungle Cruise Refurbishment to kick off soon

Though Disney has yet to release an official final operating date yet for the current version of the Jungle Cruise, it looks like a closure might be imminent as Disney has confirmed that the new version of this attraction will be opening later this year.

6. New images released of Wilderness Lodge refurbishment

Disney’s Wilderness Lodge Resort is currently set to reopen on June 6th, and will sport a bit of a new look when it does with updated laminate floors and additional accents. You can check out all the new images at Disney's official website here.
