We have 2 children. Our 3 year old has autism and associated special needs (although disability is not visible immediately) and we have an 18 month old.
My parents have booked us a surprise trip to DisneyWorld this summer as a surprise after an extremely difficult year for the family. We will be going in August (so peak weeks) as it is the only time my husband can take holiday from work.
My parent's dream is to take their grandchildren to DisneyWorld but I am extremely anxious about it. I have read up on the DAS pass which I think we would have to get and I'm not sure it would work for us. I don't think that my 3 year old will be able to spend longer than 2-3 hours in the park so I'm not sure that it's worth us going as I'm sure we'll only be able to fit in 2 or 3 return times before we have to go home. It seems so much money just to spend our time hanging about and only going on 3 things. Could anyone answer the questions that I have please?
* About how many rides do you think we'll be able to get on in 2-3 hours in peak season?
* My daughter is desperate to meet Anna and Elsa so if we couldn't do that it would ruin the day due to meltdowns (my parents have stupidly told her that she'll be able to meet them). I know this is extremely popular so probably has a hugely long return time meaning that we would be unable to do anything else.
* How does the wheelchair as stroller work? She needs her stroller in order to queue or wait at all. We usually have a double stroller. Would this be acceptable?
To be honest I want to cancel the holiday now whilst we would still get some of our deposit back as I think my parents are going to be disappointed with the outcome.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
