When it comes to packing for a day at Walt Disney World, few guests know better than Annual Passholders.

APs are in the parks super-often, sometimes close to every day, and know all the tricks to loading up on the essentials to keep running and energized during a Disney trip.

Let’s begin with Hawaiian Tropic Mineral Powder.

Featuring 100% mineral SPF 30 broad spectrum UVA/UVB sun protection without chemical UV filters, this face sunscreen provides coverage that can be used under makeup as a face primer, over makeup as a finishing step, or on its own. Its lightweight vegan sunscreen formula uses sourced sea minerals to absorb excess oils and blend into a matte finish that blends into most skin tones.
Stay energized with this Liquid I.V. Hydration Multiplier Powder.

Flavored like tradition Rocket Pops – you know these red, white, & blue summer treats – this powder mixes with water into a non-GMO electrolyte drink mix that delivers hydration faster than water alone. It features a blend of “citrusy lemon-lime, tart cherry, and true-to-fruit raspberry flavors” while offering an “optimized ratio of electrolytes and clinically tested nutrients.”
From human energy to phone energy, there’s the INIU Charger.

This is the favorite batter of many regular Disney World guests. This wired charger is packed with power but thin enough to fit in a pocket, wallet, or fanny pack, which makes carrying it around the park much easier than some other bulky charger alternatives.
The Frogg Toggs Poncho is key to staying dry at Disney World.

From the bright yellow ones that ‘90s kids remember to the clear variant of today, Disney has sold ponchos for decades. However, the in-park brands pale in comparison to these Frogg Toggs! This poncho — available on Amazon in multiple colors, striking hot pink — had several features that we simply adored. The material allowed the rain to slip right off, and between that and the lack of sleeves, we didn’t feel steamed or hot underneath. On top of that, the poncho was large enough that our backpack was able to fit underneath it comfortably, while still keeping the bag and our backs completely covered from the rain. If all that wasn’t enough, the poncho even comes with a waterproof storage bag, meaning we were able to quickly pack it up and throw it in our backpack as soon as the storm ended without worrying about anything in there getting wet.
Keep your hands clean with this Mickey Mouse Hand Sanitizer.

A collaboration between Disney & Touchland, this set features Wild Watermelon hydrating hand sanitizer in a timeless Disney’s Mickey Mouse holder, complete with a metal keyring that easily attaches to your keys, belt loop, or handbag, keeping your hand mist always within reach.
If you find yourself with a sunburn, grab the Sun Bum Cool Down Aloe Vera Spray FAST!

Obviously, everyone is trying to avoid sunburn, but if you find yourself crispy, this soothing aloe spray is a lifesaver. It’s formulated with Vitamin E, Cucumber Extract, and Tea Tree Oil to ease anyone’s after-sun pain.
