Hotel rooms will almost certainly have a safe, which is perfect for storing your passports and other important travel documents. A top tip we have it to have a notes section on every adults phone with the following:-
- Travel insurance phone number and policy number
- Contact number of any transport company you may be using and reference number
- Park tickets reference number (just in case you lose them) – or a photo stored on your phone

Electricals
The biggest tip we realised when visiting Disneyland Paris was to take an extension lead. There aren’t a huge amount of plug sockets in the on site hotels. An extension lead really helped us be able to charge our tech at the end of the day without arguing over charging points. Don’t forget your plug socket adaptor!

Disney Park Bag
There’s always one person who will carry around the park bag with everything in it. The best way to accommodate everything is with a really good rucksack. You don’t want it to be too big, but it also has to fit your essentials in.
This will of course depend on how big your family is. It may be sensible to have two rucksacks for larger families, as carrying around a heavy bag isn’t much fun either.
Inside your bag, it’s a good idea to have the following items. These are our essentials when travelling to the Disney Parks. It helps us save money and stay organised.
You will also need to decide which seasonal items will go in your park bag depending on what time of year you are visiting.

A first aid kit is a must have item for your bag. It doesn’t have to be huge but to have the basic essentials such as plasters, safety pins, eye wash, paracetamol and antibacterial cream.
You can save lots of money in the parks by taking your own water bottle and refilling them yourself. A good insulated bottle will help the water stay cool in the warmer months.
Sunscreen can be used across much of the year. Remember that just because it isn’t sunny, doesn’t mean you can’t catch the sun.
Hand sanitizer is a must! It’s not always easy and practical to find the nearest sanitizer station, or get to soap and running water. Having travel sanitizers in your park bag is one of the most important items.

A reusable bag for your purchases is a must for any purchases you might make in the parks. The shops no longer provide bags, and whilst you can purchase a bag, taking your own helps to save money.
If you love wearing Minnie ears, then remember to take any from home you already have. Unless you are planning on purchasing a new pair in the parks, you can save money by reusing your pair from the last trip.
Will you be pin trading in the parks? If so, remember to take some pins with you for trading. There’s nothing worse than the kids spotting a pin trading station and then you realise you may have to go and buy an expensive pin just to trade again.

If you’re planning on collecting autographs, have your autograph book and pen ready for the characters. Make sure the pen is on and ready for them to use. A sharpie pen is a good idea as they are thicker and easier for the fur characters to hold.
Don’t forget to pack your camera or phones that you’ve been charging to take into the parks with you. Anything else is stored in the safe for safety. Don’t forget your money for the parks, whether you’re taking cash or using cards.
