Maximizing your Disney World trip means preplanning, near-perfect packing, and mental preparedness. That might sound like a lot, but it’s true!
We have tested hundreds of items to determine what really helps your park day and what just weighs you down. That’s why we’re sharing the nine Disney essentials that we actually love, and best of all, they’re going on sale before Black Friday even kicks off!
This handheld portable charger or power bank for your electronics on the go is perfect for anyone who will be using their phones a lot throughout their trip (so almost everyone). It’s just as small and compact as the previous version, but this one charges faster than it does, even when plugged up to charge! It doubles as a small flashlight, so if you double-tap the power button, you can toggle that small light off and on, which can be super helpful in a pinch. It recharges in just a few hours, and it holds a longer charge overall.
We have screamed from the rooftops about how much we love this product, and today is no different! When it’s raining, this poncho protects us and our bags easily! We don’t feel like a steamed potato, and it comes with a carrying case so we can pack it back up and toss it in our bags post-rain without worrying about the other items in our bag. It’s one of the only weather products that we live and die by. It doesn’t leave our park bags, even when the forecast is sunshine all day.
When in Disney World, snacking is an essential part of the trip. Nothing is worse than grabbing your hot food, fighting through crowds for a seat, and drooling as you get ready to dig in, only to realize you didn’t grab a fork. This is especially painful at an EPCOT festival, that’s why we are so obsessed with this set! They’re thicker than the flimsy plastic ones from Disney World, and they have their own slim carrying case, so they don’t take up much room in our bags. These “just in case” items have seriously saved us on multiple occasions, and they’re good for the environment, so win-win!
Can we all agree that Disney World paper straws are a bit of a day-ruiner? We love Disney’s commitment to conservation, but these straws disintegrate into our drinks within minutes and have the strangest texture in our mouths. Opposed to other harder or collapsible reusable straws, they don’t bend as you’re using them, they hold their form well when in use, and when folded to store, they clean up easily, and the package comes with so many color combinations, making it easy to keep up with which is yours in a bigger group or solo. We love that they’re not single-use, but also don’t disappear in our drinks.
This Loungefly organizer has changed our lives, and we aren’t even being dramatic. It features different compartments to hold your things, including a key ring and easy-to-grab pockets, plus a few zippered pouches. This allows us to change bags easily, and it gives us peace of mind that we haven’t left anything behind. It helps ease stress when searching for essentials in the hot sun, and it actually opens up room in our bags because everything isn’t just piled inside.
If you’re like us, traveling with a group means multiple MagicBands that need to be charged at the same time. Disney World hotel rooms have upgraded their number of outlets over the years, but with more technological needs than ever, it still isn’t enough. This multi-charger can charge up to 4 devices at a time. It’s also super slim and easily fits into our luggage without a second thought!
While this can work for anyone, this product is especially for the mommas and daddies who have kiddos that desperately need their sleep! This white noise machine has saved us on multiple trips when it came to keeping our babies asleep. Disney hotels can get pretty crowded, especially the Value Resorts, meaning that it’s also pretty loud at times. This would make an ideal present for a new parent, college student, stocking stuffer, frequent traveler, small kids, those with insomnia, or difficulty getting to sleep. It’s great for multiple occasions but also helps keep those Disney trips magical by drowning out the bad noise and creating a relaxing environment.
This 3 in 1 charger is perfect for our watch, phone, and headphones, which we use daily in the parks. It only requires one outlet for 3 essentials, which can make settling into the room and staying prepared so much easier. This is great for anyone who owns multiple devices or for large families with several phones. It also conveniently folds into itself 3 ways for easy portability and packability! It’s another thing we can easily toss in our bag to make our lives easier.
This power strip is the final boss of staying prepped and charged on your Disney trip! It offers 3 traditional plug-ins, 2 USB ports, and 2 USB-C ports. While you might think this is excessive if you’ve never been on a Disney trip, trust us when we say this thing is a lifesaver. It has a sleek design, is easy to pack, and offers multiple ways to stay plugged in. If you travel with phones, portable chargers, tablets, headphones, sound machines, computers, and more, this will give you peace of mind. Plus, it will end any fights that claiming a charger might cause. (Which WILL happen!)
If you’re looking for the perfect Disney packing method at the best price possible, this is it! We can’t wait to grab these and more items during Amazon’s Black Friday sale this month!
