How to carry iPhone 6s Plus...without a bag?

[buzz1fan]

i have my older 5s I may do this. What a good idea! I was worried about my new phone getting wet too.

How is the wifi at the parks for MDE.

I have a 6+ and found it a bit awkward in the parks without a small bag. I wear capris and was able to put it in a pocket, but it was not really comfortable. I just gave up and brought a small cross body when the pockets in my capris were not deep enough.

I have a little "wallet" thing that came with one of my baggalinis. It has a small chain that I loop on my belt loops, and it is really a good fit for some money, a CC, and my ID, as well as a little sun screen and lip balm. The phone would not fit though. Darn phone!

When carrying items like CCs and such, you might want to include your medical insurance card. I took a header in the MK a couple years ago and landed on my face. Literally. I didn't have my insurance card with me, but didn't have to go to the hospital or anything so I didn't need it, fortunately. It might be something you might want to keep in mind. I know I do. It travels with me everywhere now.

I take a picture of each of our insurance cards so I have them on my phone rather than carrying all of the cards with me (we have 5 kids -- that's a big pile of insurance cards). I also recommend carrying your picture ID with you. For some reason, I was asked for it every time I used my Disney Visa during our trip in June. Most of the time we just charged to our magic bands but when I made a large purchase and wanted the Disney Visa discount, I had to actually use the card. Not sure what would have happened if I didn't have the ID with me.

Vera Bradley All-in-one Crossbody for iPhone 6 Plus and 6sPlus. I use it every day and it easily accommodates my iPhone 6s Plus that is in a DTech case. It has a cross-body strap and/or a wristlet strap. I love it!

If I search for this, is this the actual name? I sometimes get confused about the sizes when looking at Vera Bradley's site! Thanks.

My phone isn't quite as large as a 6+/6s+, but I use a small black silk neck wallet. It fits in my pocket to skip bag check, then goes around my neck or cross body for after. It fits my phone, a credit card and insurance card, a comb, a chapstick, and a single wet wipe. A sandwich sized ziplock keeps my phone dry inside the wallet if need be. The newest version of my neck wallet (mine is ancient) by Eagle Creek is 5.5" by 7.5"... The silk neck wallet weighs 1 ounce, so it doesn't feel like I am burdened with a bag. (I love to be hands free!)

I also stuff a tiny compact umbrella in my back pocket, to use as a sunshade or for rain. (My hair is so thick, I get too hot with any hat.)

Out of curiosity, I did a search on apple.com > accessories > cases > 6s+. There are several cases that will hold credit cards, plus cases by Otterbox and Tech21 case that are impact resistant. http://www.apple.com/shop/accessories/all-accessories/cases-protection?page=1#!&f=iphone6splus&fh=4598+468e Sadly, I don't see any waterproof cases yet for the +.

You could always just hire some homeless person to schlep your iPhone around for you. Of course, you'd have to pay their way into the park and buy them food and drink and all, but you'd be helping someone who's down on their luck regain their self-esteem and self-reliance.

Is this going to mean the return of the fanny pack?

That's what I plan on taking.

I have an older version, but this is the one made specifically for the iPhone 6.

I looked at this because I'm thinking of getting the 6s+. In the comments one of the reviewers says that the 6+ only fits if it's not in a case. Just fyi as this could be a deal breaker for some. I've been using my Samsung Note 3 w/out a case for a few years with no issues...

I used one of Disney's phone cases I got in the park and they allowed me to go in through the no bag line. I have the smaller iPhone 6, but if it's just carrying a phone and some cards you may be fine. This was during New Years by the way...busy.

Have a ziplock bag in your pocket. Pirates is soaking people and iphones aren't waterproof.

This is the Vera All in one Crossbody for 6 Plus. I have it in navy and use my DTech case with it just fine.

How is the wifi at the parks for MDE.

Most of the time, it's just fine. If I am in a spot with a weaker signal, usually all it takes is moving a few feet and the signal is strong again. I usually take a screen capture of my FP+ for the day, so I don't have to log into MDE just to remind myself of the times, but I have gone in and rescheduled FP+ a lot in the parks and it's always on the Disney wifi. I've used both the app and going to the Disney website - sometimes one will be more responsive than the other.
