"So you had lunch and then immediately bought TWO Mickey bars?"Sounds extremely creepy to me. Mickey is always watching.

I'm not assuming anything, but they have more technology now to track us than ever with MB+. You need it for certain games and interactions, but even just walking around the 50th statues it reaches out to let you know you're close enough to some "magic". Similar with MDE on phones, if you have the piece enabled for photo retrieval they know where you've been. Good luck checking into lunch from more than 50 meters these days.Come to think of it, I'm not so sure they wouldn't do this. I recently called up to deal with some reservation issues and they proceeded to rattle off basically my entire timeline of events at the park that night as a defense for why they shouldn't refund me for certain things. It was pretty jarring to say the least.
Funny…I learned the same thing todayToday I learned that my Type 1 Diabetes would have qualified me for DAS.
I have been to WDW and DL probably a dozen times since my diagnosis and not once did I ever think “hey I need to skip lines for this”.
I have my insulin pump / glucose monitor in one pocket.
I have a pack of Starbursts in the other.
I am sufficiently accommodated.
I didn't mean to be insulting; I was trying to be self-deprecating. What I meant is that I am trying to think about the conditions they are focused on in the description and what triggers are commonly associated. It seemed to me that you were calling me out for trying to think critically.There's no need to be insulting. Good day, sir.
From all the reports I’ve read of people trying to do it from Europe, even a vpn doesn’t work. Even if you get through, as soon as the CM hears you’re not in the US or Canada they refuse to take it any further. I did read one report where the CM said “I shouldn’t but since you got through I’ll do it anyway”.Edit. Doing it all online too tells me they need to allow people outside the US to sign up too as currently we can’t without a VPN
But what colour starbursts? There are right and wrong answers.I have my insulin pump / glucose monitor in one pocket.

It's less about preventing abuse because that is an impossible goal, but the goal is likely just to reduce the number of abusers with ban threats and barriers.I still don’t get this.
How does this prevent abuse.
It’s looks the same as it has been for the last couple years?
Yeah unfortunately you can find a Dr. to approve anything nowadays.Yeah so basically if you have a doctors note Disney isn’t going to do a darn thing.
This will cut down abuse like 3% and make it a larger hassle for the people who need it.
The tan m&m always suckedBut what colour starbursts? There are right and wrong answers.
Well the police car on the side of the road isn’t meant to give everyone a ticketYeah unfortunately you can find a Dr. to approve anything nowadays.
If we are going full minority report facial recognition to track every DAS user... the easy solution that doesn't even touch the "disability" conversation would be the following rule:They did start previewing facial recognition a few years back, right? I'm assuming they aren't proactively looking to ban guest, but if someone says they can't wait in lines for a specific reason, but queues at HM with a 40 minute line and gets a photo while skipping a 75 minute queue at 7DMT, questions could be asked.
Eh? I’m saying whoever reports those examples have no way to know that the group were using DAS.Yep. It was small groups of up to 6 sparsely using it that accounted for TP’s wild number divergences and Disney’s aggressive (and some would say draconian) step in changing their policies here.
But what colour starbursts? There are right and wrong answers.
Yes and Disney is never going to call someone out.Yeah unfortunately you can find a Dr. to approve anything nowadays.
I would have a hard time eating red just to save my life...I prefer pink and yellow but if my blood sugar is low enough I’m eating all of them mixed together, possibly with scraps of the paper still on. I wouldn’t be aware of it.
Severely low blood sugar is something else.
I don't think there would be any proactive tracking done here. But they have a lot of data they can use, along with wait time data, to see if things are clear issues.If we are going full minority report facial recognition to track every DAS user... the easy solution that doesn't even touch the "disability" conversation would be the following rule:
A DAS return time is an accommodation and substitute for the standby queue. As such any user, currently in possession of a DAS return time may not enter any attraction queue (standby or LL) or else their DAS return time will be cancelled.
They can also track the users through their shoes. https://www.disneydining.com/disney...-to-identify-guests-based-on-their-shoes-bb1/
I will just add that WDW, with all that walking, does wreak havoc on my blood sugars, but on both occasions at WDW I have mentioned to a cast member that my blood sugar was low and showed them my pump, I had a cold, free Powerade in my hand in less than a minute, without actually asking for anything.Today I learned that my Type 1 Diabetes would have qualified me for DAS.
