Can you wear flip flops on all Disney rides?

Hi Leti! Yes, you can wear flip flops on most all of the rides in Walt Disney World. The only one that I can think of that will made Guest take them off and leave them on the floor is Soarin' (this is so that they do not come off of your feet and hit another guest during your Soarin' flight).

Frees up your arms: Since fanny packs are secured around your waist, your arms will be free to do other things. No need to remove it: Just sling your fanny pack to the side or your backside when taking a photo or entering an attraction. Disney allows guests to wear fanny packs during rides.

It might be uncomfortable to wear wet shoes at the Disney Parks, especially with the rain in swampy Florida. However, it's against the Disney dress code to go barefoot at the Theme Parks. We recommend bringing spare flip flops, Crocs, or sandals to change into for water rides or rainy days!

Proper attire, including shoes and shirts, must be worn at all times. The parks are a casual, family-oriented environment. Ensuring that the parks are family-friendly is an important part of the Disney experience. In that spirit, we ask you to use your discretion and common sense.

A lot of our readers said that they at least packed a pair of sandals in their parks day bag, but many people have super comfortable sandals that they can wear all day in the parks.

Just two pairs of sneakers/tennis shoes. Perhaps a flip flop, croc, or sandal for the pool and/or flash torrential rain! The shoes you wear should be well broken in, or you're risking blisters, or some odd thing rubbing.
