Smells Pumped into Rides?

[WDW112014]

Its been a few years but Stitch's Great Escape was a bad smell that we had to leave during but also was because of the dark and noise.
Actually WDW and DL Soarin' thetree and orange smell levels seems to be diminishing from when the original rides were intorduced

I have been diagnosed with COPD and asthma and this is just my opinion and what happens to me.

The smoke screen you go through at Pirates of the Caribbean will cause a problem for me as will the smoke machine at Bug's Life. The fountains in Epcot will cause problems as well if I stand to close or too long because of the Chlorine.

I try to keep sugar free cough drops in my pocket or close by for when something triggers me. It seems to help.

The scent at Figment is like skunky coffee, and it doesn't bother me. Philharmagic is a cinnamon smell, which I have problems with at times. It all depends on how "new" the scent cartridge in the ride seems to be. I actually enjoy Soarin and all of those "smells"…

And I avoid Stitch because I just don't like the smell.

Tell her to have as much fun as possible and try not to worry too much. Hope this helps….

Thank you! That helps a lot . I will warn her about any smells and smoke before she gets one anything, she also carries cough drops and cough medicine so that should help

I've heard a bunch of gross smell stories about stitch! lol Definitely sounds unpleasant lol

There is a scene in Spaceship Earth where the smell of burning is pretty strong. It's no big deal as long as you keep moving but the ride occasionally comes to a stop for several minutes and there is always the possibility that you might be at that location.

Good to know! Thank you!

The burning smell in spaceship earth is the only one that bothers me. That being said Animal Kingdom Lodge pumps that same smell into the lobby and it commonly bothers people who are very sensitive. Wilderness Lodge has a wood burning fireplace and/or a lighter version of the woodburning smell too.

Good to know... We have stayed at some of the newer casinos in Vegas that have smells pumped in, and she was ok with that, so hopefully this will be the same for her. It's mainly like candles, bath and body works and perfume that really get her coughing. We will just try to avoid anything that has her trapped with little ventilation. Thank you!
