Hi Dawn!
Thanks for coming back to see us at planDisney! It looks like you'll be making your next trip to Walt Disney World Resort in just a few weeks, where you'll be able to enjoy so many incredible experiences in the theme parks, Disney Resort hotels, and
Disney Springs as the resort welcomes summertime. Personally, I can't wait to ride
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind for the first time, which just opened yesterday!
You are correct that Guests are allowed to bring water bottles into the theme parks with them and they can be either frozen or thawed. You're also welcome to bring reusable water bottles or thermal water bottles with you, provided that they aren't glass, as glass containers are prohibited from the theme parks. I always bring reusable water bottles for each member of my family with us when we visit the theme parks so everyone stays hydrated while we enjoy the Florida sunshine. I like using a stainless steel thermal bottle when I visit because it keeps my water nice and cold throughout the day.
Dawn, please keep in mind that the backpack or cooler you carry cannot be larger than 24" long x 15" wide x 18" high (61 cm x 38 cm x 46 cm), and you cannot have any loose ice or dry ice in your cooler. Also, you cannot bring any outside alcohol into the theme parks.
You can get additional information by reviewing the
Walt Disney World Resort Property Rules. And as always, feel free to come back to see us at planDisney if we can help you with additional questions!
T-T-F-N, ta ta for now!
