food IS a theme park
The flight to Disney World is basically the last obstacle standing between you and a churro.
Orlando International Airport
We get it, that flight can feel like the longest two to five hours of your entire trip, especially with a dead phone, a stiff neck, and a kid asking, “are we there yet?” for the 40th time. The right gear can turn that flight from miserable to actually kind of enjoyable. Here are SIX things that’ll make the journey way smoother before you even touch down in Orlando.

When you’re away from the Disney parks, sometimes you find yourself in need of some magic to make it through the weeks until your next trip.
Mickey Hair Clip!
That’s where Disney merchandise comes in! It’s a great way to set little reminders of the magic around your house, or to wear something that brings the magic to you no matter how many miles away you are. Major bonus points, though, if the items you grab can also be used when you’re in the park, which is what we try to do so we get as much use out of our items as possible. We take a look at what’s available on Amazon practically every day, and let’s just say that the reviews on these items are so high, we’ll be impressed if you’re NOT able to add them to your cart.
Nobody wants to think about bedbugs at Walt Disney World.
We’re not a fan
But here’s the reality: even the nicest hotels can have them, and Disney resort rooms are no exception. Shared spaces, high turnover, and constant guest traffic create the exact conditions where these pests thrive. Packing a few smart items before your trip can make a real difference between a relaxing stay and a situation you’d rather forget.
BoxLunch just quietly dropped five new Loungefly styles, and if you’re the kind of person who checks the site regularly, you already know how fast these tend to disappear.
We love Loungefly!

Running out of places to charge your devices is one of the most annoying problems you can have on a Disney World vacation.
Flat Plug Power Strip
Between phones, MagicBands, portable chargers, smartwatches, earbuds, and tablets, it doesn’t take long to realize that a standard hotel room outlet setup isn’t always enough. That’s why there’s one item we pack on every single Disney World trip, no matter which hotel we’re staying in. If you’re looking for a simple way to make your hotel room more functional and keep all your vacation essentials powered up, this is the item we’d recommend first.
Disney World’s refillable mugs are one of the best values at the hotels, but they come with a couple of surprisingly frustrating problems.
Disney World Resort Refillable Mug
If you’ve ever stayed at a Disney World resort, you know exactly what we’re talking about. Those mugs are great when you’re grabbing coffee before rope drop or filling up with a cold drink after a long park day, but carrying them around the resort can quickly become a hassle. Add kids, strollers, backpacks, and everything else you’re already juggling, and suddenly that convenient mug feels like one more thing to manage. Thankfully, we’ve found two simple items that help solve some of the biggest refillable mug headaches.
Nobody tells you about the gross stuff before your first Disney World trip.
VentaPak in Disney World
They show you the fireworks, the character meets, the overflowing plates of churros and Dole Whip. What they don’t show you is what happens after mile eight on a 92-degree Florida day when your shoes are soaked, your thighs are on fire, and you’re questioning every life choice that led you to this moment. Disney World is magical, but it’s also a full-contact sport. The good news is that most of these problems are totally fixable if you know what to pack. Here are the nasty realities of a Disney World trip and the products that’ll actually help you survive them.
