Policy Changes at Disney Parks

Policy Changes at Disney Parks

Disney has released some new policy changes at both Disneyland and Walt Disney World. We want to make sure you always have the most up to date information when traveling. We are going to highlight each of the policy changes and hopefully clear up any questions you may have. These policy changes will go into effect today, while others will begin on May 1st, 2019.

Policy Changes 

Strollers

Beginning May 1, Disney is adjusting the guidelines on stroller sizes, which will require them to be no larger than 31″ wide and 52″ long or smaller. Many of the strollers on the market, including many of the double jogging strollers, fit within these size guidelines.

Wagons are not permitted in any Disney parks. Additionally, beginning May 1, stroller wagons will also no longer be permitted.

Smoking

Also, beginning May 1, smoking areas will no longer be present inside Walt Disney World, or Disneyland theme parks, water parks, ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex, or Downtown Disney in California. Designated smoking areas will be available outside the entrances to the areas listed above, and at Disney Springs in Florida. Smoking areas are available at Disney Resort hotels.

Loose Ice

Beginning today, if you plan to bring a cooler bag for snacks and drinks while visiting a theme park or water park, it is important to know that loose or dry ice is no longer permitted. You are welcome to use ice packs or put loose ice in ziplock bags.
