Do you have links to where you purchased these please?!

They’re both available on Amazon, the poncho is GO Travel poncho and pouch and the rucksack i just typed in foldable rucksack, there were a few options. I got both of ours from Decathlon originally, they’ve still got the rucksacks, but I couldn’t find the ponchos on their website

Genius!

First time ever trip coming up in August. How long are the bag check queues? How much time does it save to pocket everything then bag up the other side, would you reckon?

I avoid ponchos at all costs and opt for a cheap fold up rain coat. Think pac a mac. They go much smaller.

Pa ha ha, probably not a lot, I’ve not been since 2016 so don’t know what the MK one is like now, but you have a separate way in for Epcot, HS and AK, they still have a metal detector. I just hate carrying a bag as I then seem to end up carrying everything

You'll have to struggle then.

We use a hair bobble to wrap them up when we’re in the park and used them. They’re a nightmare to get back smalll but the hair bobble does the job until drying and re folding takes place.

This is exactly why we use thin disposables. The rain stops and we can just tear them off and carry on!

Pac a macs are useless!
I find they're so sweaty that I've got as much water inside them as on the outside!

I love the new umberella's at WDW (love the Tiki one) & do think the new rain jackets in Tiki Birds and Disney food prints are nice (bit short for when there is a real downpour tho)
& the new Poncho's are cute in the Micky or Minnie styles tho:
