Most people have checklists when it comes to essentials they MUST bring with them on vacation, but do you have a checklist when it comes to essentials you’ll need for your flight? Whether you’re a flight attendant, frequent flyer, or taking your first trip to Disney World, there’s one item that sticks out that everyone could use!
If you don’t want to wait ONE SECOND getting to the Disney Parks once you touch down in Orlando, this new Disney World rule is going to make you VERY happy!
Cinderella Castle
You planned your trip, put in the hard work to make it happen, flew, drove, took the bus, or swam to Orlando, and now you’re here — heading to your hotel and likely putting off going to the Disney Parks later or the next day. What a bummer. Wouldn’t it be easier if you could just check your bags immediately at the Disney Parks and hop on some rides? Well, we have good news — you actually can!
It’s been a LONG day of travel — you might’ve gotten up early for your flight, spent hours on a plane, and then traveled even longer to finally arrive at your Disney World hotel. You’re EXHAUSTED. But wait — there are a few things you NEED to do before you fall into bed to rest up for your big day in the parks tomorrow!

If you are flying there, I thought I’d share a tip. You see, I used to be a flight attendant for a major airline…and I’ve seen some things, especially when it comes to luggage. So, I thought I’d share my tip for your carry on bags!
Are you hopping on a plane and heading to Disney World or some other exciting destination soon?
Southwest Plane
As we all know, flying comes with some challenges like how many carry-on bags and personal items can you bring? Are snacks included? What is the cancellation policy? And if you’re flying Southwest soon, we thought we’d let you know about some things you’re going to need to bring with you!
We travel a lot in this line of work — it sort of comes with the territory.
Orlando International Airport
And, because we travel often, we’ve had our fair share of less-than-stellar travel stories. Getting stuck in traffic, being forced to wait in an hours-long security line at TSA, missing our flights altogether — you name it, and it’s probably happened to someone on our team. And, the worst came true for one DFB team member when her flight had to do an emergency landing!
There is absolutely nothing worse than being trapped in a flying, metal tube up in the sky with no fresh air…and sitting next to something stinky.
Southwest Plane
We’ve all been there. We’ve probably all been on an airplane seated next to someone who decided to take their shoes off mid-flight, someone who has a stinky snack like beef jerky or Funyuns, or someone who forgot a step in their morning routine (the crucial deo step). Recently, a United Airlines flight had to TURN AROUND because of the smell from an overflowing toilet. Well, did you know that airlines actually have RULES on smelly, stinky stuff? Yes! And part of this rule might surprise you. Let’s talk about it!
Flying is tricky. How many ounces are allowed onboard again? Can you bring snacks? What do you do if you miss your flight?

When it comes to Disney World especially, the hotel industry can get pretty competitive. The competition can lead to some really interesting designs and fun amenities — some that don’t always work — to truly enhance the guest experience. In fact, a brand new Orlando resort is taking that idea to heart with a super fun room feature!
