Car seat storage

[angelbaby129]

I'd really like to be able to uber to a pre park opening adr or a late night dinner, but what to do with the car seat? I was hoping he would be big enough for the mifold or bubble bum, but he won't be old enough yet. Is there anywhere at the park to store a high back booster? I wouldn't mind paying for a locker if there is one big enough. Any other solutions people have come up with? I don't think it will fit under my stroller. Thank you!

Are you staying on site? There are no pre park breakfast reservations, since reopening. Actually, none of the parks are serving table service breakfasts. You will find a few quick service, but breakfast would be a waffle (Sleepy Hollow in MK) or Starbucks.

For a late night dinner in Disney. Disney transportation would be available, if staying on site.

The lockers are not large enough to hold a car seat. You could always request an uber or lyft with a car seat.

I forgot to mention that this is a January 2023 trip, so I'm pretending that everything will be back to normal. We will be on site, but would love to be able to jump in an uber when little ones are sleepy at the end of the night or to save time in the morning.

There are a couple NHTSA-approved folding car seats that would fit in a locker or under a stroller. Not cheap, but might be worth it if you travel a lot.

You can request an uber or lyft with a car seat. Also, you can do the Minnie Van service which has car seats too. This service is currently unavailable but I have seen new Minnie Van signage added at transpo and in the Lyft app so I suspect it's making a return. Hopefully well before Jan 2023. I like uber and lyft at Disney but we really loved the minnie van service. It's just a bit pricey for what it is.

Thanks for sharing that Uber and Lyft have the ability to ask for car seats

The weight minimum for the bubble bums is 40 lbs, same as high-back booster seats and regular booster seats. The age/height minimums should also be the same (I'm not positive...). A high-back booster is largely the equivalent of a regular booster seat in a car with head rests. Did you mean you are bringing a convertible car seat?

I guess there are some really large luggage lockers around WDW (like at Epcot and the TTC) but not sure if those are even big enough. This has dimensions:

Generally the best option is to take a car/cab to a monorail resort, check the carseat with bell services, and then take the monorail the rest of the way to the park.

Are you saying not old enough per your own feelings or by law? I did a Lyft with my then three year old in a bubble bum in 2019. While there are currently Ubers with car seats, I wouldn't expect that to be an option in 2023, Uber stopped accepting new drivers into the program a couple years ago. Lyft to my knowledge has never had car seats. If you are planning this far out I would plan on either a Minnie Van or renting a car if you really want to go someplace before opening or after closing.
