Disney has just released a major Rise of the Resistance update! Beginning November 3, 2020, Hollywood Studios will be piloting a new approach to the virtual queue system.

 Let's cut right to the chase: a private VIP tour is a better value than ever.
"A VIP tour? Value????? Are you crazy?" (You already know how I feel about the stark difference between value and cheap.) Pricing on VIP tours varies by time of year, whether you add additional hours, etc., so COST can vary significantly. Today, though, we're talking VALUE Value #1: Park-Hopping There is no park hopping allowed in Walt Disney World right now, and it's not coming back anytime soon. The ONLY way to park hop for the foreseeable future is to take a VIP tour. Universal Orlando
