I'm not going to write an entire report on the 1st party we went to on 8-11-23 (so many bloggers have covered it) but I did want to let anyone using
DAS to know this was the best time we have gone to an After Hours or special event and had absolutely zero issues using DAS during the party. We only used it twice, for Haunted Mansion and 7 Dwarfs (both had 30+ minutes posted when we got return times) but this time it was all running so smooth. I think I maybe read you can get return times for characters too but don't quote me on that one. My son is 9 and over characters now. I did hear some grumblings when we did use the DAS for those two rides but it was from fellow riders and not cast members. I truly wish I could let those people walk a mile in our shoes. I would gladly wait in any line for the rest of my life if my son didn't have autism and ADHD, people have no idea how lucky they are. I am grateful to Disney for making our park experience just a little bit easier by providing DAS.
So, if you need DAS for something during the Halloween party, it's running perfectly this year!
