Troublesome souvenirs Bear in mind that snowglobes, a very popular gift item found at Walt Disney World, may not be brought into an airplane cabin, under Department of Homeland Security regulations concerning the transport of liquids, gels, and aerosols. If you purchase a snowglobe and will be traveling by air, ask your sales representative for one of two options: package it securely so you can place it in checked luggage, or have it shipped back to your home for a fee. Similarly, stores selling knives and swords, such as chef's knives and katana swords at the Mitsukoshi store in Epcot's Japan pavilion, are required to ship the purchase to the buyer's home; these items will be shipped free of charge to U.S. addresses. |
