For a Disney Cruise Line vacation, the standard allowance is two pieces of checked luggage per person. When you book your cruise, Disney will mail you luggage tags specific to your stateroom; these are attached to the bags you hand over to the porters at the terminal, who then deliver them directly to your room. In addition to these two checked bags, each guest is allowed one carry-on bag (no larger than 22" x 14" x 9") and one personal item (like a purse or small backpack). It is important to note that unlike airlines, Disney doesn’t strictly charge for "extra" bags in the same way, but space inside the staterooms is limited. Most Disney beds are elevated, allowing you to slide empty suitcases underneath to save room. If you are flying to your departure port, remember that your airline’s baggage fees and limits will likely be the more restrictive factor. Disney also has a list of prohibited items for your bags, including extension cords, irons, and open-container alcohol, so be sure to pack "legal" items to avoid having your suitcases held by ship security for further inspection.
