I'm a former Disney cast member - here are three things I'm NEVER going to do when I visit the theme parks

A travel advisor has shared the three things she would never do at a Disney World theme park, based on her personal experience.

Jessica Malerman, a former Disney cast member, posted a TikTok video on March 27 and revealed what she would avoid doing when visiting Animal Kingdom.

Malerman's video featured multiple clips of Animal Kingdom's attractions and her seemingly having a great time at the zoological theme park.

The former Disney cast member's video has received over 750,000 views since she posted it on TikTok.

Animal Kingdom first opened at the Florida tourist destination on April 22, 1998.

A 2023 press release described Animal Kingdom as a 'one-of-a-kind theme park' that can be inspired by 'the magic of the natural world.'

'Disney’s Animal Kingdom, like the world itself, will evolve and grow. It’s truly a living thing,' said Roy E. Disney at the park's 1998 dedication ceremony.

Animal Kingdom is still going strong at Disney World, but Malerman did not clarify whether she worked at that park herself.

According to Malerman's LinkedIn profile, she was an intern at Disney world from 2018 to 2019 before she became a concierge cast member in July 2021.

She left the job in July 2022 and became an agent, and later a guest service associate for Disney Cruise Line.

Malerman left the cruise line world behind in April 2023 and became a travel advisor at Marvelous Mouse Travels a month later.

She has worked at that travel agency ever since and has got media attention from her Disney tip-themed TikTok videos.

Malerman said in the video that she would never go to Animal Kingdom's ride, Avatar Flight of Passage, at the rope drop.

Rope drop is a term used for the number of guests that rush to get into lines for rides as soon as a theme park opens.

The Avatar-themed ride is what Malerman considers to be a high value attraction, which comes with a long wait line.

Instead of waiting in that long line, Malerman 'will be taking advantage of the lower wait times at the other attractions.'

She would then head over to the Pandora section of Animal Kingdom during the afternoon so that she wouldn't have to be in a long line at the Avatar Flight of Passage attraction.

Malerman then praised the food at Animal Kingdom before discussing the second thing she would never do when visiting.

The first thing Malarman would never do at Animal Kingdom is go to the Avatar Flight of Passage ride during the rope drop due to its long wait time

The travel agent spoke highly about the theme park's food and live shows and said that she would never 'skip the shows'

In her video, she stated: 'I am never going to go to a normal quick-service restaurant.'

'Animal Kingdom is the best foodie park, so I will be planning out my daily itinerary based on the best unique snacks and drinks all around the park.'

Malerman added that the Animal Kingdom shows are must-sees at the park and that they are 'Broadway quality entertainment.'

Because of this, the third and final thing she would never do when visiting Animal Kingdom is 'skip the shows.'

The travel advisor showed clips of two Animal Kingdom shows, one of which featured live parrots and aquatic creatures.

'If you miss out on it, you might just be missing out on some of the best experiences at Disney World,' she said. 

Malerman responded to several comments written by TikTokers who watched her video.

Multiple users wrote about the Avatar Flight of Passage Ride, and one user even said that the ride at rope drop is 'amazing.'

TikTok users have left several comments on Malerman's video and the travel agent responded to many of them and left a tip about the Animal Kingdom safari

'We roped dropped Pandora and was on the ride in like 25 minutes it was so worth it,' a TikToker commented.

Only a few users left negative comments toward the video and one person even said that the first thing Malerman wouldn't do at Animal Kingdom was an 'odd take.'

The travel agent, who responded to several comments, spoke highly about the park and even revealed when she would go on an Animal Kingdom safari.

'Hot tip from former FOP the best time to get in line is minutes before the park closes,' another person wrote.
