    News New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    I mean to be fair, we’ve purchased both. DAS is the accommodation for the standby line and non disabled guests can do standby and LLMP. I get the rationale about being able to use the LLMP ride while essentially “waiting” for the DAS ride though. That’s why I said I could get them restricting...

    News New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    Yes, I agree. It’s about providing access (the queue), not necessarily about equal park experience. But is it equal access if a non disabled person can enter the queue 3x and the disabled person is restricted and only allowed to enter the queue 1x (just using random numbers for the example)...

    News New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    It’s not the point of how many times someone is riding. It’s about equal access. Limiting the ability to have ADRs or ride other rides during the wait would honestly make it more equal….

    News New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    Isn’t the point of DAS to provide equal access and opportunity to the ride queue? If the amount of times a person can access the ride queue is limited only for DAS users, then it would not longer be equal access, right? I mean general terms talking about what is “reasonable” for the...

    Then change those things, not queue access. Wouldn’t that make more sense?

    Then they should put the same restrictions on people accessing the ride via the standby queue too, right? Only can ride 3x (or whatever the number)?

    Not all. Many of “smaller” rides at MK have shorter waits as long as someone is going during a time of year when it’s not crazy busy. ETA - when my son was young he loved barnstormer or the Nemo ride at EP and wanted to ride multiple times. Many times it was walk on or a short wait.

    News New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    If they want to cap DAS to only 1 ride, and DAS is the accommodation for queue access, then to me, they’d need to also cap standby. Otherwise you are telling only disabled people that they cannot ride something more than once, whereas a non disabled person could.

    They’d have to cap the standby queue to once per person then too…. Which won’t ever happen. DAS is not meant to be a cost saving method.

    News New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    DAS not about making the experience the same as a non disabled guest. It’s about providing access to the ride queue. That’s it. I don’t disagree it provides benefits though, and some restrictions could be put on it. I do not think restricting rides to one time only is a limit as again, non...

    News New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    I mean no. The new premier pass is superior if we are comparing all options. As far as disability accommodations, yes I’d agree DAS is easier, but it’s now only meant to a small subset of people. Other accommodations are offered and if someone doesn’t like those accommodations they do have the...

    News New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    You are missing the point. DAS is an accommodation for the standby queue. It has nothing do do with making “sacrifices”. That doesn’t even make sense. Then limit the amount of times someone can enter the standby queue to make likes shorter for everyone.

    News New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    Yes. In the past one had to ask for a return time for DAS or GAC at the queue. So what’s the difference? Someone just says they can’t wait in the queue that long due to a disability. Why do you care how it makes others feel behind you? While the standby people are waiting for their party to...

    Those people can also wait outside the queue. The rest of their party can wait in the standby queue, then the disabled person can join them at the merge point by going through the LL. There are still accommodations offered other than DAS.

    News New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    But the point is that any standby guest could wait in a headliner queue 3-4 times per day. Limiting a DAS user like that would be discriminatory as the point of DAS is to have a similar experience to a standby user. Now, they could limit to saying a DAS user cannot go on any other attraction...

    Were you there this week? I believe it was very busy this week with a lot of kids being off school for break.

    Maybe, but my understanding is that the premier pass is extremely limited and many of the people would have purchased LLMP anyway (so assume would have already been in the LL).

    Usually in Toy Story land. I was going to say also the Star Wars characters can have longer lines at times. It really depends. sometimes you can catch the lines at 10-20min and other times it’s 45+ min.

    My son doesn’t care so much about characters meets and we usually did the meals back when he did think they were fun. Otherwise, like you we just don’t want to bother with lines. I’m just surprised we haven’t seen people whine a lot about how they will do character meets even with DAS. Maybe...
