Disney World Bag Policy 2021

So, you're planning a magical trip to Disney World in 2021? Well, congratulations are in order! But before you start packing your bags (literally), you should know about the Disney World bag policy - it's not as exhausting as waiting in line for Space Mountain, but still pretty important.

What's the Big Deal?

The bag policy is actually pretty straightforward: Disney World allows bags, but with some restrictions. You can't bring in any bags larger than 24" long, 15" wide, and 18" high - that's roughly the size of a small suitcase, or a really big picnic basket. Don't worry, you can still fit all your essentials in there.

The No-Nos

Now, here's the part where we talk about what you can't bring: no wagons, no trailer carts, and no luggage with wheels - we know, it's a bummer. But don't worry, you can still bring your stroller, as long as it's not larger than the aforementioned size limit. And, let's be real, who needs a wagon when you can just use a really strong friend to carry all your stuff?

On a more serious note, Disney World also prohibits any bags with hard sides or sharp objects - no swords, no axes, and no ninja stars (just kidding, those were never allowed anyway). So, leave your medieval gear at home and opt for a soft-sided bag instead.

Pro Tips

Here's a pro tip: pack light, and wear your heaviest or bulkiest items (like your favorite Disney-themed sweater) to save space in your bag. And, if you're planning to buy a lot of merch, consider shipping it to your hotel or home - it's like having your own personal shopper!

Another fun fact: did you know that Disney World offers a package delivery service? It's like magic - you buy something, and it appears at your hotel later that day (or the next day, if you're staying off-site). It's like having your own personal genie (minus the magic lamp).

Lastly, remember to check the Disney World website for any updates on the bag policy before your trip - you wouldn't want to show up with a prohibited bag and have to make an emergency trip to the nearest store to buy a new one. Been there, done that, got the t-shirt (which, ironically, you can buy at Disney World).
