Perhaps you and others were being hyperbolic, but my earlier post was met with cries of “Tough luck” and “I will refuse to allow someone past me”. I’m glad to hear that people wouldn’t be quite so hardline in real life.
My wife has IBS. She has had to leave a few lines for the problem. She waited until we got off the ride and did not push back through the line to rejoin us. She also manages it with medication that helps remove the issue most of the time.I hope people would be understanding for one person returning. Some people have IBS and man you don’t want to force them to stick it out.
Absolutely. And even those of us without such conditions can be caught unawares at times, despite our best efforts to prepare beforehand. Expecting the worst of others rather than giving them the benefit of the doubt is generally going to raise tensions and make things less pleasant and enjoyable for everyone.I hope people would be understanding for one person returning.

I have a feeling they may come up with some type of elite or premium option where you can buy your way out of the more aggravating features of Genie+. I would be surprised if it happened this soon after launch, but who knows.
Thought that said something else!
As I said, the posts I was responding to (yours included) made no distinction between queue-cutting opportunists and those with a legitimate need to go; it was a blanket "Tough luck" for all (expect young children). But we're way off-topic, and I think we've all said pretty much everything there is to say on the matter.
Id vote for that
Boy do I hope you're right....I hate Genie+.....we honestly wont go back and I really want to go back, it was that bad
It's already so damn complicated for most people (other than regular Disney visitors) adding yet another option or two would be totally unbearable.
If you are staying till the fireworks the best way to do soarin is 9.30 as its pretty much walk on...then come out and watch the fireworks immediately.
Whilst I agree it’s annoying, and the example given of the girls with their coffee seems somewhat clear cut as queue jumpers, I do take exception to a blanket policy fo refusal to accept there could be a valid reason.
And you get to ride whilst your wife has to skip it? You could of course leave with her and then rejoin the line after she’s been to the restroom. Even if she says she doesn’t mind, I bet she does sometimes.
It's generally easy to tell when people are using the bathroom as a bull excuse to line cut. If someone like your friend asked, I'd have zero issues with it. (And being mom to 2 autistic boys, trust me, I'm the last person to make assumptions about people's abilities or disabilities.)Whilst I agree it’s annoying, and the example given of the girls with their coffee seems somewhat clear cut as queue jumpers, I do take exception to a blanket policy fo refusal to accept there could be a valid reason.
A friend of mine has just had to start using a colostomy bag. If he needs to empty it, it really needs to happen PDQ, certainly whilst he gets used to it. And certainly at the moment he would also need someone to accompany him to assist. I doubt you would realise that if you encountered him trying to rejoin his group, yet I would suggest it’s a reasonable situation. Of course he could probably ask for a DAS but maybe some people don’t feel they really need that kind of accommodation.
Oh, and he’s 28 by the way, not an older gentleman that some might give a pass to. I hope he never meets either of you, albeit at least one of you is never going back so the chances are halved.
But of course, the most righteous members of the public often seem to believe they have an inbuilt ability to identify someone with a hidden condition or disability so can immediately tell who’s faking it.
If you’d got half way through the line, by the time you got back your friends would be near the front. The people who joined the line after you left wouldn’t have seen you, and would think of you exactly as a queue jumper joining your friends at the front.
