From the author: major changes for the 2020 edition include re-editing and re-organizing for easier, faster reference:

• Each chapter now begins with a set of the most common and important questions that visitors have about Walt Disney Worldand where in the chapter to find answers. For example, the Saving Time section shows questions such as What is the FastPass+ ride reservation system, and how do I use it? See page 64, and What do I do if my child is too small for a ride? See page 413.
• Ratings for rides, hotels, and restaurants now say whether that rating is above, below, or at average for that category. This makes it easier to identify things that are worth your time and money.
• Each chapters topics are presented in their order of relevance; the most important topics come first.
• The Saving Time topic is now its own chapter.
• Similar information that once appeared in multiple chapters, such as wheelchair rental, is consolidated into one chapter. This saves almost 40 pages as compared to the 2019 edition.
