- Strollers that are greater than 31” (79 cm) in width and 52” (132 cm) in length will be prohibited.
- Stroller wagons will also be prohibited.
- Disneyland in California will also become smoke-free.
According to Disney Parks Blog:Designated smoking areas will be available outside the entrances of the areas listed above and at Disney Springs in Florida. For guests who have room or dining reservations, smoking areas are also available at Disney Resort hotels.”
A new rule posted on the blog that went into effect earlier this year is in regard to loose ice: “If you plan to bring a cooler or cooler bag to store snacks and drinks for theme park or water park adventures, it’s important to know that loose or dry ice are no longer permitted in our parks.”
