I can’t stand very long, can I bring an assist device?

Folding chairs are not allowed. The rule is clear.

But if nothing folds then it can’t be called “folding”.

Do security guards actually follow the rules or do they make things up as they go along?

I think the rules concerning assistive devices are being changed (or leniently interpreted) because of the recent changes to DAS.

Since Disney is no longer giving DAS to people with mobility-related disabilities, they are going to have to be more accommodating to the use of assistive devices in lines.

Even though the rules still don’t expressly allow folding chairs, it doesn’t surprise me that the one you used was allowed in. I could have used one when I had hip pain.

Indeed, and they really are so compact when retracted, and extremely handy and helpful.
I only wish I woulda’ come up with the idea…!!!!!

You would have been able to afford even more trips to WDW!

If it doesn’t fold, clearly it’s not a folding chair and is allowed

Just as the previous poster confirmed

It was not confirmed as allowed. Getting away with something does not equal permission.

Disney has just decided to significantly limit DAS. I don’t think they are going to look too closely at the assistive devices brought in by mobility impaired guests.

Wild that written rules are considered rumors, but anecdotal stories are considered proof.
