Attractions
Attraction Bag Policies: Landmarks, Museums, Viewing Decks
Landmarks, museums and observation decks tend to focus on small bags and security screening. We started with stadiums, arenas, amphitheaters and theme parks, and attractions are the newest group, so the list below is short and grows as we read each place's own pages.
Checked against the source
Each one gets the same treatment as every other page here: a rules table where every line has a source and a date, and a plain note where its pages say nothing.
