Kristina,
Thanks for asking your question to planDisney!
I am right there with you. When I visit the parks, I prefer to travel light. I rarely take a backpack along, as my personal rule is that if it does not fit in a pocket, it must not have been that important!
Unfortunately, at this time both the
Souvenir Pick-Up and the Resort Hotel Delivery programs at Walt Disney World are still not available, and Disney has not announced a return date of these services. They are still listed on the site as currently unavailable, so there is always the possibility that they will return in time for your December visit. I suggest you regularly check the
Disney Parks Blog, as well as come back and
ask me again closer to the time of your visit, and I can let you know if that has changed. My fingers will be crossed for you!
BONUS TIPWhile Disney has not yet resumed these programs, you could make your purchase and store it in one of the
theme park lockers. Each park has lockers available to rent. They are at the front of each park after passing through the turnstiles, and there are a few locker sizes available. They are keyless and typically will cost you $15 or less for the day. The Magic Kingdom Park and EPCOT even have a few larger lockers available that are up to 17" x 22" x 26" (43 cm x 55 cm x 66 cm). Prices can change, so check first online for current rates.
Write me back when you are close to your vacation dates, and we can see if the status has changed.
Have a Magical Vacation!
Doug
