This is totally embarassing & I'm terrified. I am a size 26 about 5'7" and I'm scared that I will not fit on the rides at Disney World (Epcot & Magic Kingdom) and especially what I am looking forward to most: Harry potter Land at Universal Studios. Does anyone know if I will? how embarassing if I spend all of this money and not be able to do anything and be constantly embarassed :(

    Check out WDW at Large! It's a website that will put your fears at rest! I used it when my husband and I visited Epcot two years ago, and it really calmed my fears. http://allears.net/tp/ridsiz.htm Disney does a fabulous job of accomodating people of all sizes, I was really impressed. I hear that Universal isn't as helpful, but they have added modified seating to some of the rides specifically in the Harry Potter area. Have a great time!

    you know, I'll bet the parks have a customer service number you can call and get all the particulars you need!

    I hope you go and have a blast, but I agree, not worth the money and embarrassment. Good Luck!!

    Not to be a downer, but you prolly wont fit on the Potter ride. My daughter works there and I have attempted all. Therides usually save the backrow for larger people, but even then its a really tighht squeeze. Use this as motivation.....I did.

    I don't think they'll ban you, but you might have to sit solo. :ohwell:

    I think you will fit most of the rides for sure.
