I see some already answered it, but I thought it was the answer to the “my autistic child fixates on one ride and needs to ride it back to back” issue. I don’t know how the prebooks work, but could they be used for the same ride?
Yes they gave them out if you pre booked but again why?!? It was part of the reason the system was crippled
If this person posted experience after experience of that nature, I might question it. For a one-off? CMs have bad days too. My thought is if I wasn't there I have no idea.
My point is this tho. How clueless could they have been to not realize this was hurting the system and why did they not get rid of them asap… its like they intentionally did this to implode the system
“Was every GAC holder a power user? No. But was ever a power rerider holding a GAC? Yes, unless the attraction happened to not have a wait.”
I have no confusion about how DAS can be used to maximize access to attractions.
And again, aside from those who are faking it, we are talking about people with legitimate medical issues. Many of which take that time between rides to deal with their medical conditions. That is why I, and others are saying to not lump everyone together. Just because someone has DAS, does not mean that they are getting on a bunch more rides than everyone else.
It may not be an advantage in terms of riding the same ride but people using DAS don't have to wait in the actually line and are free to do something else during that time. That gives them the option, if capable, to experience exponentially more of the parks than those without it.
Prebooks were limited and could not be used for the same ride. They also did not include the E ticket rides. I belong to a DAS group and the majority of people actually said that they didn't even end up using the prebooks because the time didn't work out for them. That is another point about those with disabilities, they can't always make that hour return time the Genie+ has because they can have flair ups or other issues in that time frame that need to be dealt with.
GAC is in no way comparable to DAS. I don't know why it is even being brought up since it has been gone for well over a decade.
To incentivize people to do the online registration in advance instead of tying up guest services in the parks. This has been confirmed by insiders.
Yes, that’s correct.
No one is arguing that DAS was handed out like candy. My issue with many of the posts is the lumping in of everyone, as if everyone was lying to get it. Yes, the fakers had a huge advantage. But I don't agree that those with legitimate medical conditions had any advantage since most still ended up doing less than the average park quest.
But at what point do you realize this is again crippling the system and simply say like they did now… all DAS must be pre booked with NO incentive. Policies change alllll the time. This was one that needed to change as well.
Because a lot of people booking day of at Guest Services messes with park ops. They wanted to incentivize people to book in advance.
