I never thought wheelchair non transfers were getting the FOTL access because of the vehicles required. That was hammered home by the fact that the people who are howling the loudest about these changes were the non transfers who were given FOTL (or as close as possible due to the FP waiting...

Really happy about this - I love AK and it would be awesome to be able to take advantage of the non blazing sun hours to tour the park.

I thought it was a good way to get the transfer vehicle on the track without having to slow down the entire ride as well. This allows the handicapped person to take their time and get fully situated without feeling pressured. I think someone said earlier that the new system was actually speeding...

I read this one too and I love at how she was "aghast" at her son waiting 10 minutes on HM while the scooters got to immediately board and then didn't correct herself when it was pointed out that the wheelchair guests actually have to wait longer. Then, she goes to POTC and proceeds to get...

And has more locals that come so while a WDW passholder might go 2 or 3 times a year, a Disneyland AP holder might go 2 or 3 times a month.

I agree. Which is why you shouldn't threaten or issue an ultimatum unless you are willing to accept the consequences if things don't go your way. She was probably hoping to get to someone in the customer retention department (in the cable company world, this is the department with a lot more...

Yes. It was just registered a few days ago

Priceless. Except for the poor kid that can't go to Disney. Don't make an ultimatum if you can't accept the consequenses. Besides, doesn't Disney have the right to cancel your passes without your permission at any time? Nice to see them calling people's bluff.

Unfortunately, that's just what I had to do. I blocked it from coming up on my newsfeed.

I was just over at the WDW Facebook page (read the reviews). It's like an epidemic of entitlement and selfishness over there and I had to stop because it was making me sick to my stomach. There's a woman who is upset about losing her perk of looping. If it was raining, she would let her son ride...

I think she was trying to provoke him into acting out in front of the CM because it would get her what she wanted - a FOTL pass. She probably told the poor kid that he couldn't come to Disney anymore. Her story just doesn't add up at all. She says now that she had an aide with her during the...

I thought they were switching to stamps eventually to prevent this kind of abuse.

I think those are growing pains that come with a huge policy overhaul such as this where part of the reason for the overhaul is to weed out fakers. As time goes on, management and front line CMs will handle these situations better. They have had a lot thrown at them over the last couple weeks...

What I dislike most about the petition is the dishonesty. No mention in the petition that Disney put an alternative program in to replace GAC, or mention that Disney NEVER intended for the GAC to be a FOTL pass, and the article she was quoted in that brought in all these signatures was...

It didn't seem like the most efficient way to do things especially for fast passes for even for those of us without mobility issues. Other places have a FP distribution machine not near the entrance to the ride and it would sure ease some of the congestion for a place not designed to have such a...
