12 Disney Essentials Cast Members Always Pack
"A visit is famously magical but can also be a full-day marathon—from early rope drop to nighttime fireworks—with strong sun, lots of walking, long lines, and the occasional splash. Former cast members recommend packing strategically to preserve energy and comfort: a small sling bag you can wear on your chest for rides; portable chargers to keep phones usable for photos and reservations; a compact handheld fan for heat and queues; a collapsible water bottle and taking advantage of free quick-service water cups or refill stations; a solid sunscreen stick for quick, mess-free reapplication (plus travel-size lotions or sprays for larger areas); light disposable ponchos and water-ready backup footwear; reusable straws to avoid soggy paper ones; clear, TSA-approved pouch(es) to organize essentials and stash wet items; and an autograph book or picture-frame mat to collect character signatures without paying park prices." - Jennifer Vermeer Jennifer Vermeer Jennifer Vermeer is a seasoned writer specializing in finding the best deals on apparel, beauty products, travel gear, and more.
