before leaving home
Pack those bags! And trust me, it’s time to use something other than that old stuff you were given when you went to college. Learn from your mistake: The bottom of my packed roller, including one wheel, broke while being transported from the middle of the airport to the terminal. Luckily for me, there was a Disney Store nearby that carried some merchandise at a manageable price – and luckily for you, there’s a whole new era of fan-inspired merchandise to choose from these days. Has gone.

while traveling
Getting to your chosen destination for fun or relaxation can be anything but, especially if you get easily overstimulated at the airport or even among the theme park crowds. Make sure you have the right music, podcast, or book to read!
ready to go
Having the right things on hand can make or break a trip. Many theme parks are moving their ride line queues online or offering expensive multi-attraction passes to reduce the wait a bit, much will depend on your phone and your patience level.
Especially at Disney parks, always keep an eye on the time when the virtual queues go up for boarding passes and Lightning Lane availability. They’re all based on a first-come, first-served basis, and with many attractions still a hot ticket, you’ll want to secure the free or paid options as soon as possible.
Either way the battery is drained. I can’t stress this enough: get a separate camera and battery for pictures and video, don’t do this Putting too much on one device.
As far as planning your meals, the parks offer plenty of dining options – but mobile ordering may be your best option, especially if you have young children. Making sure they eat is just as important as feeding them. It’s the same idea as putting an oxygen mask on yourself first, and remember: ABS. Always. Happen. Snacking. (and hydrating!)

- For families with small children, I can’t emphasize enough how useful a bottle warmer is, especially amber babyIt’s a hockey-puck-sized base that lets you heat bottles on the go with little hassle and mess. This is a total game changer, but be sure to keep it in an easily accessible spot in your bag, as the TSA and any security point will ask questions.
- Visiting parks with children can be very difficult. Companies like Cybex have Lightweight strollers that can pack a good amount of gear and adapt to busy small space environments; Koya is also carry-on compatibleThe company’s car seat line for road-trippers includes options like callisto g360 With full rotation and tech-savvy upgrades for added security.
- For a lightweight camera option with photo, vlogging compatibility, the ability to shoot perpendicular to the frame, as well as direct online social uploads, consider this Lumix S9 from PanasonicThey come in beautiful colors but the big win here is the weight; Even with the lens it’s not a great handheld camera for making memories.
