In late 2012, your Clients visiting the Walt Disney World® Resort will have a new resort option, offering rooms and suites that house up to six Guests each.

Disney’s Art of Animation Resort will feature quality family suites designed around four unique themes: The Lion King, Finding Nemo, Cars and The Little Mermaid. Located adjacent to Disney’s Pop Century Resort, the new resort will include 1,120 family suites and 864 themed rooms – for a total of nearly 2,000 new units. Suites will feature both a living room and a bedroom, offering added space for families.

Disney’s Art of Animation Resort will be the 26th hotel at the Walt Disney World Resort, and will offer themed building exteriors and room interiors, and larger-than-life icons from the animated films in the courtyard areas.

All of the themed suites and rooms at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort are expected to open by the end of 2012.

Adding to its impressive list of cruise industry firsts, Disney Cruise Line® is combining technology-infused innovations with Disney imagination to create a whole new level of magical experiences for families sailing on the Disney Dream™.

Throughout your cruise vacation, you will encounter unexpected magic – such as a restaurant that transports them under the sea, artwork that magically comes to life and youth clubs filled with immersive gaming environments and personalized character encounters. New experiences planned for the Disney Dream include:

Animator’s Palate

Disney Cruise Line is re-imagining a fan favorite from its classic ships. Animator’s Palate restaurant will resemble a classic animation studio filled with character sketches, animation maquettes, paint brushes, colored pencils and other tools of the animation trade, while scenes and characters from popular Disney•Pixar films adorn the walls.

Disney Cruise Line® is once again reinventing onboard children’s experiences. Through an entirely new approach to youth activities, kids can let their imaginations set sail by customizing their cruise vacation. More youth activities than ever before are available, and children choose experiences based on their interests, not their age.

Exciting new youth activities and dedicated children’s spaces are available now on the Disney Magic® and the Disney Wonder®, and are coming to the Disney Dream™ beginning with the ship’s maiden voyage in January 2011.

While Disney Cruise Line will continue to recommend activities that appeal to specific maturity levels and ages, the entire menu of offerings is open to every child. With this revolutionary approach to shipboard youth activities, children and parents choose programs based on the specific interests of each child to create a customized and very personalized experience. Best of all, children of different ages -- siblings, extended family and friends -- can participate in youth activities together throughout their cruise.

In spring 2010, the Downtown Disney® Area welcomes state-of-the-art theater upgrades and the addition of two new stores.

Recently, AMC Entertainment upgraded auditorium one to be the first Enhanced Theater Experience (ETX™) in the United States. The ETX auditorium includes a 20% larger, floor-to-ceiling screen; 3-D technology; 12-channel audio and digital projection that delivers higher resolution than High Definition. The ETX auditorium opened in time for the premiere of “Alice in Wonderland” in 3-D on March 5, 2010.
