Is there somewhere inside the parks to inflate tires for strollers? I am bringing a jogger it appears to have a slow leak.
 
Not that I can think of off first hand. It is possible guest relations might have a hand pump but I would not count on it.

You learn something new every day. We had 3 kids and a variety of strollers but never had to add air to a stroller tire.

OP, maybe check with the place that rents ECV's? Do those need air from time to time?
 
I would say fix the leak. It could just be a lose valve in the stem. Any bicycle shop should be able to take care of the leak for you, and solve that problem. Also, you can get a small hand pump, same kind they use for bikes, and just attach it to the stroller frame. We used to have a Jeep branded stroller that actually came with the hand pump already attached to it.
 

We had a jogger with innertubes that kept getting punctured by blackberry bushes. REI's bike repair people were a great help. There's no Orlando REI but I'd suggest a bike shop.
 
Thoughts....
 
Good suggestions above. I'd think that the locations where you rent ECV's would have a compressor somewhere to keep those tires properly inflated. Maybe if you ask nicely they would accommodate you.

Are you at the parks now, or heading there in the near future? If you are there now, go to stroller rentals and see if they can help. If you aren't on your trip yet, get it fixed before you go.
 
I didn't even know strollers had inflatable tires, I thought they were all hard rubber wheels.:confused3
OP stated she's bringing a "jogging" stroller. Depending on which one she has.... some come with inflatable tires for a smoother ride...

Anyone remember those baby carriages/buggies going back 40yrs ago with a spring loaded full suspension system? Heavy.... this was how they kid's got smooth rides before inflatable tires were introduced. No cup holders! They don't look collapsible.... and minivan's were not introduced. No idea how these carriages got taken out of the house.

They had inflators last month. I noticed only because someone's tire exploded when they overfilled and the noise gave everyone a good scare. This was at MK by the lockers.
 
I"d get it repaired before the trip. I think the locations that you can rent or bring a wheelchair if it has a problem has a way to fill up tires. (grab a disability map when you go into the parks but they are also in the app) they have more info on the map for things related to rentals at disney and where in the park you can go.

I don't trust fix a flat stuff, most of them are flamable and can explode if you puncture it again in the right way. I would be pissed if I heard someone put a stroller with fix a flat on a plane with me.
 
They have that Hess Gas Station that is near MK that may have an air pump but that would probably be very time consuming. I agree with others that say get it repaired before you go.
 
Forgot an option. How much is this stroller costing to get to disney and back? maybe it'll be better to just rent one and not get it repaired if your ok filling it up for home usage.
 
If you are already at WDW -- I suggest checking with the wheelchair rental location at a park, or the bike rental areas at resorts with bike rentals.

If you haven't arrived yet and have time, pick up a cheap hand-pump at the sporting goods section of a Walmart. Our jeep stroller came with one.

Enjoy your vacation!

stroller travel free on planes. And if they are driving - also free.
