Regarding the OP message, visual impairment doesn't qualify for a DAS. Although if they're being flexible for visibility issues that's a positive change, if needed. Being told to get a wheelchair isn't a great response.
Last year, my wife didn't qualify for a DAS because we were told it was a concern that could be addressed at each attraction. This was a month or two after the switch from GAC. We found most CMs to be helpful but uninformed. Many thought we needed a card and were unfamiliar with the new park policy. It was also frustrating to speak with 5+ people at some attractions when it used to be only one on the first day of the trip. Despite the frustration, everything went well.. CMs are trained to move issues forward, so you rarely get stuck with someone so uniformed they ruin the magic.
We're actually returning next week. It will be interesting to see if the awareness has improved and the attractions where we received a runaround last year.
