For a WDW trip you need the biggest bag you have with you and leave it half full on the vouyage there. Why? Cause you are likely to pick up bulky things that are expencive to ship home rather than carry in the checked in baggage. Things like dolls, cos play costumes, souvernirs and lightsabers could come with a huge cost to sent home internationally. Its far more conveint to keep an extra bagspace for them. Johan.

I'm not even international and I always bring an extra bag flattened in the bottom of our one free checked bag. My husband and I generally share a carry-on (swimsuits, change of clothes, & electronics/chargers plus snacks) so if we overdo it on souvenirs or I just can't be bothered to as neatly pack the suitcase with dirty clothes as I did clean, then I can use the flattened carry-on. That said, if you can wash your clothes before you leave, its so much nicer when returning home! And you don't feel defeated by trying to pack dirty clothes efficiently that you're just going to have to unfold and wash when you get home.

lol 8 days here, am debating bringing the larger carry on or the slightly smaller one and what i really need to bring myself

Fly Southwest. Two free checked bags (including oversize like golf clubs and strollers) per ticket and the Wanna Get Away? fares are always reasonable.

We had groceries delivered to our resort through Amazon Prime Now (Cabins at Fort Wilderness) back in July. No charge appeared on our room bill. Also, a lovely, lovely bell services gentleman offered to drive us to our cabin. Naturally, we tipped him. I definitely recommend calling the resort in advance.

As someone who works for Shipt grocery delivery in the Orlando area, I'd like to put in one thing here for our alcohol delivery - the Orlando area has alcohol delivery as one of it's test areas (as of 02/02/20), and this includes getting them to the Disney resorts. We are required by the company to get a signature of the user on delivery, as well as seeing a valid ID that proves over 21. If you are not a US resident, then a Passport works (though you might need to show some shoppers where it is in there, as not everyone is familiar with what passports look like in the US). Ultimately the app requires us to get it, and it is known that we can/will be dropped by Shipt, and possibly prosecuted under the law, if we're found not getting the proper ID and signatures for delivery, or are knowingly delivering to someone under 21. If you let the shopper know ahead of time you might not be able to pick up the alcohol yourself, let them know who to look for - however, no matter who recieves the delivery, they must be over 21 and have their own ID with them. No having a child with the parent's ID in their hands, that will not fly. If the person trying to recieve the delivery cannot prove they themselves are over 21 then the driver is to return the alcohol to the store, and the user will still be charged the purchase price. Basically, if you use it, just follow the law. Don't be stupid and try to be slick.

Most of the Walmart stores near Disney have the grocery pick up option now which makes it even easier. Pick out what you want, set a pick up time, they'll bring everything out and load it into the car, done. Don't have to get out of the car and there isn't an extra fee from Walmart so it wouldn't even take 1-2 hours. They open pick up slots well in advance too.

Also possibly available at the pools: those foam noodles. Last fall at the Boardwalk's quiet pool, they had plenty of those noodles available poolside for any who wished to take advantage. Don't know about the main pool - it is much busier and too many of those noodles could take up too much space in heavily populated areas of the pool, so they may only be available at the quiet pools. It was a nice touch, though, along with plenty of complimentary beach towels poolside as well - no need to carry anything but a book and sunglasses to the pool (sunscreen already applied, of course!).

I need my phone, poncho (both fit in a pocket) and magic band. My hubs keeps my ID in his wallet. I realize people travelling with kids need more, but what else is necessary?

@@kellykiefer3683 At minimum I bring a fanny pack to have my phone, backup battery, ID, hand sanitizer, and tissues.. but that's if there is 0% chance of rain and it's not terribly hot. I find it easier to carry around a reusable water bottle than going to get a cup of water at a quick service place constantly when it's hot

It’s funny how even experienced Disney travelers can learn from your videos.

Me and the family started packing our own resuable straws and silverware 3 years ago, when disney switch to paper straw , I didnt even realise hahahha 🤣 I do now though with all the people complaining. I'm so proud of disney and the efforts they make! It's really not the big a deal to simply 1) use ur mouth and not a straw or 2) pack your own straw!

Cool video!

I went to Disney in 2012 that summer.

I will say as a cast member that you won’t have access to packages 24 hours a day because if it is sent to a business center, those usually close around 5pm. A lot of the time packages will be automatically sent to business centers even if they have your name and arrival date on it.

Be careful ordering from Amazon. Disney now charges per package to get items at the resort and Amazon often sends things in different packages.

TheLauren1113 Yes, I was really disappointed in my experience with Amazon Now. I ordered groceries, it took them way longer than the two hour window they gave me, and they only brought a couple of the items and charged me the full amount. I was able to easily get a refund but it was a very disappointing experience all around.

Great to know! I’m not a parent or anything so most of the pricier kids stuff doesn’t thankfully effect me. I’d like to go with my family but my Mom, aunts, and uncles and Grandparents have already gone haha! So they probably won’t want to go with me :( I definitely want a magic band! :)

Not every resort has all items for shower products... my skin gets dry, and need lotion.. a couple resorts will bring you some if you ask, and others will tell you they won't and you have to buy it in the gift shop.. and that was as of last Oct-Nov 2019 time frame

I stayed at Disney Animation of Art last Summer. I had a package delivered. It was delivered to my room but I was charged a delivery fee. I saw the fee when I checked out. 😥 Did not even question it since I was not sure if the delivery was supposed to be free.

The last time I went to Disney there was a freak rain storm and we were trapped under awnings and things like that and they were just giving out ponchos because we were stuck after the park had closed

Going in April

A fridge in every room is wonderful especially if you have medications that need to refrigerated.

Where do you get the Disney souvenir straws from? I would love to get one for my next trip trip :3

When I stayed at AKL in 2018, they charged me for having a package delivered. I think it was $5.

Are we still able to send a package to the resort during this time? I heard that that resorts are no longer holding a stroller from a rental place until you are there physically. Does anyone know any of these updates? Thank you!

I totally never considered the straws. I prefer drinking without them lol

If you drive in from say a airport ask for them to take you to a store of choice first like breakfast.

Does the whole package delivery work for guests staying at Fort Wilderness Cabins the same way at the other resorts?

PRO TIP f ure international. AKA not from America. When you buy alcohol , specially if u look young you´ll be asked to show your passport or a picture of your passport so have one handy on your phone. i ALWAYS have to do this .They will not take a drivers licence or ID from your native country :)
