Did you catch this small yet surprising update in Walt Disney World?Credit: Inside The MagicRelated: Walt Disney World Bans Kids From This EPCOT LocationAfter sitting empty and abandoned for several years, Walt Disney World has removed the Mickey’s Gift Station sign from its place at the Transportation & Ticket Center (TTC). BlogMickey reports that crews took the sign down Friday afternoon.The store itself closed years ago, prior to the COVID-19 shutdowns, with the sign simply serving as a reminder of what once was. Guests theorized Disney may have planned on reopening the store at some point, though this new update leads us to believe Mickey’s Gift Station is likely gone for good.Walt Disney World has not made any kind of official announcement regarding this location.Mickey’s Gift Station was nothing to write home about, but it was helpful for guests looking to get their shopping done early in the morning or after their day at EPCOT and Magic Kingdom had ended.The Ticket & Transportation Center is the hub that connects resort hotels to Magic Kingdom and EPCOT. While guests can park their personal vehicles at EPCOT, they cannot do so at Magic Kingdom and will need to transfer using the TTC.Guests can choose to use a ferry or the Monorail to travel to Magic Kingdom.Significant Changes All Around Walt Disney WorldCredit: Inside the MagicRelated: Disney World’s Controversial New Booze-Fueled Upgrade Is HUGEUpdates are happening all across Walt Disney World Resort. Starting with the Magic Kingdom, guests can currently see a ton of construction walls scattered all along the former Rivers of America.
