Those are all permanent structures likely based on impact studies and therefore quite different.Things like not being allowed to just group all wheelchair seats together. Or having to disperse hotel rooms across a facility and view types. Or parking spaces having to be dispersed across lots. Not being allowed to have separate accessible restrooms. The main entrance being the main accessible entrance. Over and over again in the existing regulations there is an emphasis on integration. That’s a primary purpose of the law. Just because it’s not specific to line accommodations doesn’t mean everything else will just be ignored.
I think the only way to analogize from a legal standpoint would be to plug the current fact situation into the legal analysis of A.L. v. Walt Disney World Resorts, 50 F.4th 1097 (11th Cir. October 4, 2022) and PGA Tour Inc, v. Martin, 532 U.S. 661 (2001). That way you would have the legal structure of the analysis already in place, with the court's statements of ADA accommodations in the light of Disney's business as well as relevant Supreme Court authority.
ETA: Other than that, it seems the closest analogy would be the DOJ regulations on service animals.
