7 New Disneyland Rides Announced — What It Means for Your Next Trip (And How to Get There Stress-Free)
Disneyland is getting even more exciting.
With 7 new rides and attractions officially announced, the Disneyland Resort is entering a major expansion phase — bringing fresh experiences to both Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure.
For families, couples, and travelers planning a trip to Southern California, this is big news.
But it also means one thing…
Bigger crowds, more demand, and more planning needed.
Let’s break down what this means — and how to make your Disneyland trip smooth from the moment you land.
What’s Coming to Disneyland
Disney has announced multiple new attractions as part of a long-term expansion across the resort. While some details are still under wraps, this development includes:
-
New rides tied to popular franchises
-
Expansions to existing themed lands
-
New immersive guest experiences
-
Additional park space approved for future use
Some of these projects are already under construction, while others are expected to open in phases over the coming years.
Translation: More reasons to visit — but also more people visiting.
What This Means for Your Trip
With new attractions comes increased demand — especially during:
-
Spring Break
-
Summer
-
Holidays
-
Weekends
You can expect:
-
Longer wait times
-
Heavier traffic around Anaheim
-
More crowded airport arrivals (especially LAX)
That’s why planning how you get to Disneyland is just as important as planning your park days.
Best Airports for Disneyland
Choosing the right airport can make a big difference:
LAX (Los Angeles International Airport)
-
Usually the cheapest flights
-
Most direct options
-
BUT… busiest and most chaotic
SNA (John Wayne Airport)
-
Closest to Disneyland (~20 min)
-
Much easier and cleaner experience
Long Beach (LGB)
-
Small, fast, and very convenient
-
Great alternative if available
Ontario (ONT)
-
Underrated and very smooth airport
-
Great option for Inland Empire travelers
-
About 40–50 minutes to Disneyland depending on traffic
Burbank (BUR)
-
Easy airport, but farther from Disneyland
No matter which airport you choose, your transportation experience can make or break the start of your trip.
Why Private Transportation Makes a Huge Difference
After a long flight — especially with kids — the last thing you want is to:
-
Wait for shuttles
-
Deal with rideshare lines
-
Haul luggage across terminals
That’s where private Disneyland transportation changes everything.
