    New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    I agree that standby guest who purchase genie can hold 2 places at once… but they have to pay to do it. So I think the “elevated experience” offered to those with the DAS is that in theory they can hold 2 places in 2 lines without paying for it. Which makes it “greater than equal” experience. I...

    New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    I know, and that’s why I’m not sure that they will even try to tackle that… and as someone who has traveled with people on the spectrum I know how hard it can be to try to distract them when their whole focus is on riding they one thing they are obsessed with. So it might be just more work for...

    New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    Yes, that’s why I said that Disney encourages people to do that. So I don’t think it’s wrong that are people are doing it, I can just see how it might not be considered “fair “ to some folks waiting in standby lines.. and make it more attractive to lie to get the pass. But like I said, I know...

    New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    Please don’t think I’m judging or saying anything that you are doing is wrong…but in a perfect world I do think out of fairness it might benefit Disney and everyone else to prevent DAS guests to holding 2 “standby” slots at once (and I have a DAS user in my family, so I’m not speaking as...

    New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    I agree, Disney only has to offer reasonable accommodations to meet the needs that the persons disability creates… that is why for disabilities that the person needs to exit the line to take care of something, a return to line pass might meet that need. I think the DAS comes into play for...

    New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    Yes. Exactly. If the standby line is open those with a disability have to have opportunity to access it, even if they need accommodations to do so.

    New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    Absolutely agree with you! If 100 people using DAS all get a return time to space mountain at the same time, the LL becomes beyond overwhelmed. I have a family member that works for Disney, and my understanding is they have to keep the DAS return times consistently offered and they can’t ask...

    New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    Actually the system they had before DAS the GAC was ruled by a court to be offering the disabled guest a better experience . Disney was sued when they stopped giving out the GAC and implemented the DAS, which the court ruled was acceptable and reasonable for those who have disabilities that...

    New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    Agreed. And honestly, some parks are very strict with their party size. When my nephew was little and attending Hershey park the rule was the disabled guest and 1 other person (or the amount of guests that could fit in one seat or car of the ride) those groups were allowed to use an alternate...

    New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    In theory, I agree with you… but in reality because DAS acts as a way for disabled guests to enter the standby line, Disney can only require the disabled guest wait as long as the current wait is for the non disabled guests … if they added on additional time to the disabled guests return time...

    New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    I see lots of issues with the DAS (even though I have an autistic family member that uses it)… but I totally agree with you on this. Because Genie+ is available for all guests to purchase it wouldn’t be legal to tell a guest with disabilities they couldn’t purchase it . That said, I do feel that...
