That's a good point. The idea is for the lockers to minimize what is carried onto the ride, so using something like a phone as the key is not ideal. Although here is a small storage area on the lightycles for things that are phone sized. My guess its just likely to be a compatibility issue.

No, because there is a place for guests to put their phones on the vehicle.

More than likely, they don't want people to use their phones because of the likelihood that a good number of them will then unthinkingly store their phone in the locker, and thus, won't have their phone to open the locker.

At universal, they give you a temporary card you can use for the lockers which allows you to put your phone in the locker and still use them (if your ticket media is on your phone). I would imagine Disney might do the same here

Magic Mobile won't open your hotel room. My guess is the lockers have the same issue


DME can unlock your hotel room using Bluetooth. I guess Disney doesn't think it's worth the expense to set it up.

Oh, this response is always adorable. I’ll tell my parents, one of whom is in a wheelchair and one with arthritis that prevents them from contorting their body as Tron and FoP demands, that they should just sort themselves out.

You're taking very specific examples of people with legitimate disabilities, which always exist and need to be accommodated, and using it to bash the idea that maybe, just maybe, there's a large percentage of the population who are, in fact, responsible for their own issues. I'm sorry, but we have a major obesity crisis in this country. And it's not just that if affects people's appearances or keeps them from riding the latest Disney ride. It is killing people. And the vast majority (not all) of the responsibility is on the individuals themselves. It's time we stopped being afraid to say that. We're not doing anyone any favors by pretending otherwise. And the presence of people with legitimate disabilities does not change that.

A quick fix is making them all take the walk of shame at parks.

I get people with disabilities and weight problems may not get to ride this easily if it all, but some rides and attractions are just not gonna work for everyone. Luckily there are dozens of other attractions at the parks to enjoy. There's a few rides I can't go myself due to motion sickness. Space Mountain, star tours, goofys sky school, etc...that doesn't mean I hate the rides or think they shouldnt build them, I just go on the many other rides.

1 of my fave disney attractions that I've never been to only seen videos of is called camp discovery in Shanghai. Its a rope course obstacle course mountain climbing attraction and it looks so amazing I wish they'd bring it here but people would probably freak out cause it's def something a lot of usa disney guests wouldn't be able to do because of mobility and weight. But if they built it, I'd be all for it.

I dare say anyone who can ride any other MK roller coaster can ride this in the back.

Disney refuses to furnish nutritional info, including calories and carbohydrates.

Disney is part of the problem.

I will sit by the entrance to Tron with a big bag of popcorn and enjoy the sight of folks who regularly call others "sensitive" get offended when they don't fit inside the lightcycle. I might not fit myself after that much popcorn.
