Hey CJ, welcome to planDisney! It looks like your
Walt Disney World vacation is just a few weeks away. What an amazing time to visit with the fall season in full swing! At the time of your visit, the parks will be beautifully decked out with fall and Halloween decorations, and if you haven’t already, I’d highly recommend checking for tickets to
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. It’s an unforgettable way to enjoy the parks at night with all the spooky and family-friendly fun.
To answer your question, according to
Disney’s property rules, any suitcase, bag, cooler, or backpack larger than 24 inches long x 15 inches wide x 18 inches high isn’t allowed inside the theme parks. Based on the dimensions you provided, 12.5 inches wide, 7.0 inches deep, and 19.7 inches high, it looks like your bag is slightly taller than Disney’s height limit. However, since your bag seems to fit well within the overall size restrictions based on its volume, I’d recommend re-measuring it just as Disney would, focusing on the outermost points of the bag, including any pockets or attachments. Cast Members at park entrances will measure it that way, so it’s always better to be safe than sorry!
Now, when it comes to packing for your park days, I have a few tips to ensure you’re prepared for anything! A lightweight poncho is always a good idea for those surprise Florida showers. A portable fan can help you stay cool during the warmer afternoons, and don’t forget a wireless battery charger to keep your phone powered up for all those
My Disney Experience app needs. Sunscreen is a must, and packing a few snacks can help keep the energy up between meals, especially with all the walking you’ll be doing!
I hope this helps, CJ. I wish you an amazing vacation at The Most Magical Place On Earth! If you have
any more questions, feel free to swing back by planDisney!
See you real soon,
Brent
