Yes, they will likely give you their written policy if you ask. However, I’ve read of people actually calling as free being denied for DAS and they were able to cancel without penalty. Now your airline tickets likely have some sort of penalty unless you booked them as refundable, but Disney...

I also think most people still go on their trip and find a way to adjust. I mean in reality, that is the life of people with disabilities. Constantly having to adapt and adjust to situations, even with accommodations.

Do you know someone that had been denied a refund after requesting one due to a DAS, or are you assuming they wouldn’t?

Oh I don’t disagree that they should either refund people or allow a conversation prior to purchasing tickets. I was just agreeing that I forgot you used to have to apply in person once there, which for a lot of people meant shelling out all the money to get there, not usually a day trip.

Oh yes, people used to not even be able to apply until onsite!

But let’s be real, some were taking advantage at times. We’ve seen people admit that they only needed DAS to remain out of sunny lines, yet they used it in all lines because it allowed them to. There were likely many people in those situations who sometimes legitimately needed the pass, but used...

I agree with you. I don’t think there are a lot of people being denied improperly. I also think Disney would work with someone on a refund if denied. Although, the people who do fall into a weird category are AP holders. I suppose if they have an unused AP maybe they could get a refund, but...

I do agree with this. I think if someone buys tickets, gets denied DAS, and doesn’t think they can go on the trip without, they should be able to cancel with no penalty.

Good point. I had no ill intent. I was trying to state my opinion on why they might be denying some adults vs others by explaining the difference of people on the far sides of the spectrum, a low needs person and a very high needs person, but I did not mean that those are the only possible...

I wasn’t trying to say that, sorry if it came off that way. I was talking specifically about adults with developmental disabilities who likely also have cognitive disabilities and need constant care. Many people with high support needs do not need constant care and I wasn’t including those...

These were both under the new rules people were approved, then denied. I honestly think adults who are considered “low support needs” are being denied. Likely because they are planning their own trips and getting themselves there, unlike adults with developmental disabilities who need constant...

Yes! They decided other accommodations could fit most people.

I don’t personally think they are denying people because they want to push them into paid options. I think they redid the program because of drastic overuse. I think some people were getting DAS because they didn’t want to have to pay for LLs though… To me it sounds like they are trying to...

I feel like this has been said a bunch of times already, but no one needs to detail every aspect of their disability to the line CM. Just make it simple, “I may need to leave the line due to my disability, what is the process if that happens”? I don’t understand why people keep using the excuse...

I would assume you will be denied and talk to the CM before entering the queue. I’ve heard each queue has a process depending on party size/makeup, like length, etc. You don’t need to go into detail about your disability, just let them know due to a disability you may need to exit the line or...

This has always been the case and has not changed with the updated DAS system. People who do not have developmental disabilities should assume they will not receive DAS and plan that way. I’d even go as far to say that adults with developmental disabilities who are the ones planning the trip...

I don’t believe they changed their policy again. I’m talking about people who were approved after the change, now being denied upon reapplying. There haven’t been any other policy changes since that have been announced… they are supposed still only supposed to approve those with developmental...

I’ve been hearing a few reports of people who were approved the first time around with new rules now being denied (the ones I saw reports of were for themselves, an adult). It sounds like they are trying to correct ones they don’t think should have gotten approved the first time (based on...

What time will the promos go live tomorrow? Is it 6am EST?

Hmmm. No Disney visa of D+ promo? Usually they run something for one of those that is slightly better than general discount.
