    DAS changes coming WDW May 20/ DL June 18, 2024

    No one is dismissing physical issues. But the issue you described (boot) is resolved by a mobility aid. And it's not Disney's responsibility if a guest has unruly kids.

    DAS changes coming WDW May 20/ DL June 18, 2024

    We still have no idea what accommodations for heat issues will be - if, for example, it is Rider Switch, then I would think it's unlikely that there would be any limit on party size, since all but one or two guests would be entering via the standby line v. the LL. The assumption that DAS is the...

    DAS changes coming WDW May 20/ DL June 18, 2024

    Could have been me, because that is the answer Disney will give for mobility and/or stamina issues. The lines are ADA compliant for mobility devices, which is the only obligation Disney (or any business) has. Disney isn't obligated to provide the mobility device, just to allow it and to make...

    Same - they already have the ability to do this, and it would certainly address a lot of concerns about families having to split up.

    Not when you include the time it takes to ride the attraction plus what it would take a non-DAS user to walk to the next standby line. Not to mention that Disney has always stated that DAS users may have to wait longer.

    In many, if not most lines, they are.

    We can agree to disagree.

    I agree, to a point. However, in the examples I gave above, we're still talking about reputation, just from a different point of view.

    DAS changes coming WDW May 20/ DL June 18, 2024

    And perhaps that's the problem - we all need to stop looking at Disney as a place that will always do everything better and start recognizing that they're a business that has as its first obligation the obligation to make money for its shareholders. As such, they shouldn't be expected to do...

    They shouldn't need (nor do they want) your diagnosis - they want (and need) to know your needs as they pertain to waiting in a standby queue.

    Or get an ECV so that no one has to push anyone around. Seems reasonable.

    DAS changes coming WDW May 20/ DL June 18, 2024

    I have no doubt that Disney knew exactly what kind of pushback they would receive - it’s the same level as when GAC was discontinued 11 years ago.

    This. Some people won't come back, but I'm guessing (just guessing) that it will be small percentage. A much larger percentage (again, just a guess) will continue to come back and utilize the new accommodations, whatever those might be. The DAS long ago became, for many, many, people, a way...

    Agree 100% - the less that’s out out there, the less info the fakers can leverage.

    Yeah the petition is a piece of work. I mean, people can have at it and sign it, but I recall that the people freaking out when GAC was changed to DAS had a petition with 40k or so signatures. The rollout has been been horrid , with so little info, but I highly doubt that Disney would do...

    Speaking only for myself, I don't think that the vast majority of people on this thread would intentionally try to game any system that Disney comes up with...the situation you're describing is definitely one that could come up, and of course you wouldn't be trying to game the system. At the...

    It may well be, we just don't know yet. The idea that it *might* work that way kind of arose out of what Disneyland has on their site about rider switch for some disabilities, and how that wouldn't work with a party of one, so would they get a DAS instead. All pure conjecture on our part, I...

    2nd bad experience on Spaceship Earth

    It's not really their responsibility to push you up or down the ramp though. I understand it was upsetting to be left there like that, but the correct response from the CM at the beginning should have been that they aren't responsible for pushing people in wheelchairs.
