  1. Responsible commenting is a must as well. Call the Park. Your entitled ass will be stuck behind the turnstile as of May 1st.

  2. Your graphic of a stroller wagon is misleading as the pictured item is obviously meant to imply that Keenz stroller wagon is no longer permitted which is 100% incorrect. Because it is pushed instead of pulled and fits far within the width/length guidelines, the Keenz wagon is the only wagon permitted in Disney Parks.
    In fact, the pictured graphic of posted backstage to show cast members specifically that it IS permitted.

    Responsible reporting should know better. The policy specifically states that PULLED wagons are not permitted, meaning items like radio flyer red wagons. The Keenz stroller wagon is pushed and thereby not restricted under this policy.
