I'm just responding to the comment asking when bags are subject to search. As Disney is a private company, no they are never subject to search but you can be asked to leave.

Actually, I wasn't asking so much about the legalities involved regarding searching a guest's bags and such. I was really wondering if say searches were normally request both when entering and exiting the park. Entering I can understand, to make sure certain items are not taken into the park. It is the exiting I am less sure about.

I don't ever remember being searched on exit. in fact, I don't recall being searched on exit to anything that searched going in. TSA doesn't at the airport, races, concerts...

As a guest, I can (sort of) understand the intent to search on entry. The only reasonable excuse I would imagine on exit is you thought I stole something. Entry = Safety (or allusion of). Exit = What are you taking that I don't want you to have!

Mapo,

You mentioned "both" articles... I only see the one link in the OP. I Googled the story but everything that comes up is a re-hash from the guys web site.

Is there a public link to another story or is this from things that Dis Po have?

It's getting rough too, they wouldn't even let me in the DLR once while I was drinking my morning green tea. they said, no glass in the parks. so I sat down and missed my early morning entry that day. no way I was going to toss away my 2.50 cent green tea.

Is searching a guests bags more fun then just searching a baggy guest?
