    I have a latex allergy — are the rain ponchos at WDW made with latex aka natural rubber?

    Hi Genevieve, and welcome to planDisney!
     
    I’m so glad you brought your question to us because I Iove to share tips for enjoying Walt Disney World Resort in the rain. Believe it or not, rainy days at The Most Magical Place on Earth are better than sunny days most any place else!

    Before I get to my top tips for rainy days, let’s get to your question. I have quite a few Walt Disney World rain ponchos at my house because I can’t resist wearing them on a rainy day at home to bring some magic to a blustery day. I checked the tag of several of them and they all list that they are 100% PVC. If it does start to rain during your vacation, you will be amazed at how quickly ponchos will appear all over the resort. Now, to be safe, I recommend that you check the tag (it is at the neck of the poncho) to confirm that the ponchos available are 100% PVC. 

    If it does start to rain, Genevieve, resist the urge to depart the parks, because that is often when others will leave, and you will find that attraction wait times may be shorter. Of course, some attractions won’t be able to operate in inclement weather so be sure to check the My Disney Experience app for wait times and closures. My family also takes time to eat lunch or enjoy a snack at one of the quick service locations when it is raining. And when my girls were little, they loved nothing more than puddle-jumping their way through Fantasyland in Magic Kingdom Park. So, my best advice is to put on your poncho and go with the flow!

    I hope this information has been helpful to you and that you have sunny skies on your vacation. Just know there is magic to be found in any weather at Walt Disney World Resort. Please write back and let me know if you have any other questions.

    Wishing you many magical memories,
    Shannon

Hi! I'm a dreamer and doer who loves exploring the big blue world! My love for Disney began at Walt Disney World Resort and after my first Disney Cruise Line vacation I was hooked. I especially enjoy the ships' adult-exclusive spaces and activities while experiencing the magic only Disney can create. A Land and Sea vacation combining an action-packed Walt Disney World Resort visit and a relaxing Disney Cruise Line voyage is my favorite way to do Disney. I can't wait to help you create your magical memories! Learn More About Shannon
