    New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    Disney itself advertises these numbers in order to set expectations. From the Disney World website on the Genie+ (Lightning Lane) page. Disney tells guests: Purchase Disney Genie+ service to use the Lightning Lane entrances at select attractions and experiences (subject to change without...

    New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    I think having more dedicated loading areas for individuals/groups that have trouble transferring to ride vehicles would be a HUGE quality of life improvement for ALL guests at the parks. Haunted Mansion, Little Mermaid, Pirates, Buzz and others constantly stop throughout the day to accommodate...

    New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    And Disney offers a variety of accommodations to manage conditions that don't just rely on Das.

    New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    Punishing? Disney has a program targeted at some families with some Disabilities. Persons either qualify for the program or they don't. Disney provides a variety of accommodations for groups that don't qualify for their program. There is no punishment here. I suppose one could argue that standby...

    Lightning Lane at Walt Disney World

    Being on a phone already is choice that society has made. They probably can't go back. Paper Fastpasses disadvantage disabled people because they can't run or navigate through the crowds like abled people can. It's better if Disney doesn't go back to the paper system.

    Lightning Lane at Walt Disney World

    I think Disney could get away with giving LLMP away exclusively to Deluxe Resort guests while taking away their Deluxe Extended Evening hours perk and make more money than they do selling LLMP to X number of guests and keeping the park open 2 additional hours each night. Fill up Deluxe rooms...

    News Tiana's Bayou Adventure - latest details and construction progress

    It would be nice if Disney's diversity and inclusion initiative would also build in role models for young men and boys. Something like a well-written Prince movie; instead of this fascination focusing solely on princesses. All the boys have no ware side-kicks and hangers on (the current...

    New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    I would add that we are all well aware of the number of guest-poistive accommodations and amenities that Disney has changed or removed recently (like Magical Express and direct-to-room luggage service). The resort experience is changing and the changes to DAS qualification is now in the...

    New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    You medical condition realities definitely does not describe the typical park goer. However, the accommodation provided to any non-DAS user is to return to the back of the queue in the case(s) where the entire party has to leave the line.

    New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    But that is the point of a queue. You are in a queue-line in the order of who is next to be served. If a party leaves a queue and returns, you have to line up at the end of the queue. That is the experience that everyone expects.

    New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    Well, for most travelers we just get back in line, ride something else or buy Genie+. So whatever accommodation Disney provides, could reasonably be similar to those options.

    Then time swill go up the first week of July due to the holiday.

    New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    Disney wants to reduce the number of people using DAS and to provide other accommodations where necessary. Disney no longer feels like DAS is an operationally sustainable program to such a wide range of disabilities. Coming into this thread so late and saying it is DAS or nothing isn't adding...

    New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    No, that poster was simply suggesting to keep DAS as in in full but add a hoop for users to jump through via the third-party service. There was no other possibility suggested. Just keep it as is.

    Enough to challenge in court? We'll see.

    New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    This is because all the ques are different, they expet different levels of investment from guests. Also all DAS users are different. There is no one accommodation that will blanket cover all guests, all disabilities and all ride ques. Therefore Disney has a few different accommodations in place...

    Giving out advice like this is how Disney gets into these situations.

    New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    Heck, I don't have a need or desire for the DAS service but this is EXACTLY the way I tour. I think most guests look for places to take a break and sit in the cool air. When I go back to the hotel (around 11 am) to rest, the bus is usually more than half full, so lots of guests do this. That...

    New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    And I don't think that it is (medically) necessary for a family to have to stay together. We are talking about DAS here, and what accommodations that Disney is able to provide someone in need of DAS. Personally, when I was a child and my parents took us to Disney World, my brother (6 yo) and I...

    New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    Which is more miserable? Stand-by que of for 90 minutes for Rise 3 times in a day OR waiting for Rise 3 times (outside the que) for 90 minutes each time, while being able to go eat or use the bathroom of see Mano etc? That is what that poster you quoted is talking about. It ISNT about riding...
