Big changes in the last five years?

I'm being flown to LA for a work trip. I've been there once five years ago. Before that i was an AP holder for 10 years. I will only have one day (Saturday) in the parks. Other than the new lightning lane system, anything else to be aware of? I'm super excited even though I know it will be HOT! Will be staying at a hilton nearby. Also, since it's a work trip I can use my company cc for food/drinks. Anyone know if restaurants show up as DIsney Carthay Circle on the statement or just "Carthay Circle" for example? My direct manager doesn't care since he'll be doing knotts. But not sure about the higher financial people. I was going to air on the side of caution just to be safe though.
Also, I fly in on a wednesday. Thinking of grabbing lunch on a non park location since it's just a part day. Any recs for anything nearby or downtown disney or hotel?

When are you arriving? The weather has been very comfortable this summer - I need to layer up at night!

Looking at my CC statement from last month, the food and merch charges show up as “DLR” and then rhe name of the restaurant or quick service or shop. It shows that whether in DL or CA.

I made the following transactions on a credit card during my last visit:

DLR LIGHTNING LANE
DLR RONTO ROASTERS

I also used a Disney Gift Card several times, and those charges showed up as:

DLR Food & Beverage Mobile Order
or:
Disneyland Resort F&B

"DLR" might not catch the attention of your company's accountants if your charge shows up as "DLR CARTHAY CIRCLE," but "Disneyland Resort" sure would.
