Duffy Bear Size Question

[iKristin]

I know that they sell a large sized Duffy that's somewhere around 3 feet or so. Does anyone know if this would be allowed to be carried onto a plane?? Obviously it won't fit in my suitcase lol, and if not does anyone know the actual size of it so I can search ebay for it? TIA!!

I guess they would let you carry him on if you could cram him into that little space provided where they measure carry-ons, and he counted as your only carry-on (couldn't bring a backpack), just a "personal item" (purse, laptop).

Here is one that's 28" high, I'm not finding bigger than that? http://www.disneystore.com/duffy-th...isney-bear-plush-toy-28-h/mp/1294002/1006801/

ETA: They might have a more lenient teddy bear policy if your little one is the one carrying it

DS carried a 24" mickey on a plane a few years ago. Nobody questioned it.

Yeah looking him up and seeing he is only 28" I think it's fine. Based on the OP I was envisioning a giant 3 foot bear but he's not that big.

Thanks!! I've been wanting to get this one since it came out but was always afraid they wouldn't let me take it on the plane (and I didn't want to carry it around the park lol)

He is $45.00 at the Disney Store; I THINK he may be more expensive at the parks (someone on another board reported $60 or maybe even $70!). Someone in Florida found him in the Character Warehouse marked down to $34.99, so they may (or may not) be phasing him out. Anyway, if Disneyland's prices are still $60 or $70, it might be more economical to order online. Of course, there could be some appeal to picking out your own.

I have heard you can dress him in toddler clothes.

Yeah I was told on the official Duffy facebook page that the US parks are not carrying the 28 inch one anymore, so I'll be buying him on the online store
