    GAC to Become DAS

    As i stated in an earlier post, my husband who uses a cane to help him and can not use stairs had no problem getting the new card. We had it with in two minutes of walking up to city hall. They did not say we needed to get a wheelchair.

    Using the new Disability Access Service DAS Card

    My husband has a disability that does not allow him to use stairs or steps. We just got back from WDW and had our DAS card within 2 minutes. A CM met us outside city hall and asked what accommodations we needed. He took my husbands pic and returned with card in hand. We had no problems. He does...

    GAC to Become DAS

    My husband and I were at Magic Kingdom on the 10th. He uses his cane and can not go down stairs or steps walking around the parks is very hard on him, but does it because ECV's are not easy in the parks. We had no problems getting the new DAS. We walked up to city hall and were greeted before we...

    GAC to Become DAS

    Kiosks don't work well for people with a mobility disability.To much traveling. My family does not use the wheel chairs or ecv's while at Disney because we find them to hard to navigate the parks with. Like running into people or them running into you. I like the idea of in the future linking...

    GAC to Become DAS

    The problem with putting in a kiosk is that would mean more traveling to and from the kiosks than it is to travel from ride to ride. Even if they put a kiosk in every land and centrally located it, there would be to much back and forth. Most rides are located relatively close to each other so...

    GAC to Become DAS

    We got to use the new DAS this past week, and it didn't seem bad at all. We would get a return time for the busier attractions and enjoy the less frequented ones, or grab a bite to eat in the mean time. Yes a little more work is involved, but it is not as tough as some are making it out to be...

    GAC to Become DAS

    I am not sure how UNI or others handle it. The only time we went to UNI we stayed at one of there resorts and your resort key works like a fast pass.

    GAC to Become DAS

    Yes there will be more planning, i already do this for our trips. We get to use the magic bands and fast pass + on this upcoming trip. I made sure to fast pass the most popular rides, and then we will have the GAC at the start of our trip, and the DAS for the end. This only applies to rides with...

    GAC to Become DAS

    Yes but most people on here are unhappy that they have to wait at all, and return at a different time. Disney is accommodating the fact that they can't stand in line. They are just not getting instant access. I find Disney is doing the right thing here. First come first served.

    GAC to Become DAS

    It is not illegal to offer accommodation above an able bodied person. but the law only requires you be afforded the same equal rights as an able bodied person. If an able bodied person must wait for rides or buses why can't the disabled.The disabled have gotten used to the special treatment at...

    3D Disney's Dessert Discovery are they crazy?

    I love the hot bourbon glazed dounts. And my DH loves the the bourbon. When you add all the alcohol in to the price its a great deal. But last year with the whole candy table, that was more for the kids than anyone else. So they don't bill this as just 21 and over.

    3D Disney's Dessert Discovery are they crazy?

    I think that is because it is actually billed as a dessert buffet. We didn't know about all the alcohol the first time we went. We were in line waiting to enter the building the first time we went when my DH asked me how much I paid. He about hit the floor when I told him. Then when we went in...

    Animal Kingdom Club Level

    I have stayed at AKL club level and have loved it. However if you don't spend a lot of time at the resort in order to reap the rewards it will not be worth it. DH and i spend a lot of time in the evenings enjoying the food and alcohol while sitting on the balcony watching the animals on the...
