    New buses and ECVs

    A huge issue is that there are great inconsistencies in wheelchair and ECV design with respect to where and how to tie down the equipment properly. If you've seen one ECV, you've only seen one- the next model may be completely different. And not to mention that there is often a person on the...

    Doctor Dies From Allergic Reaction After Raglan Road Meal at Disney Springs

    And in this particular case, the lease may actually be for the ground and not the building. I think that every brick for the building came from Ireland- at least that was the story- and the original build was a partnership between Disney and a third party.

    Doctor Dies From Allergic Reaction After Raglan Road Meal at Disney Springs

    As of what is known publicly right now, the source of the allergens remains unknown. She may have eaten at Raglan Road, but I haven't seen anything that shows a test result from a sample of what she consumed at the restaurant or a statement from the kitchen acknowledging they served her one of...

    Doctor Dies From Allergic Reaction After Raglan Road Meal at Disney Springs

    I believe RR uses shared fryers between what may be (it once was, I think, but don't know if it currently is) dairy-fee (please check before ordering) and GF fish and (advertised) vegan onion rings. I don't know if the Scallop Forest uses the same batter as the GF?/dairy free? fish or the onion...

    Cruising through Ft Lauderdale help, please.

    A cab, rideshare, or bus would be much cheaper if the transfer is to your hotel OR to MIA. If the private transfer includes BOTH a transfer to your hotel and a transfer the next day to the airport, it is still on the expensive side if you are staying at an airport-area hotel. DCL usually offers...

    Cruising through Ft Lauderdale help, please.

    That is not a particularly good option. Tri-rail would be a much, much better rail option.

    Passport for Alaska cruise

    A passport card or a passport is required for sea travel, with the exception of a closed loop cruise that meets certain other requirements, where a government-issued photo ID and a certified copy of a US-state-issued birth certificate (and in certain circumstances certified copies of...

    MK Bus wheelchair/ECV at closing

    They used the ramp that deploys for the wheelchair/ecvs. The height of the step also makes a difference.

    What airlines should I consider from Toronto to Orlando?

    Unfortunately, you are no longer going to be flying Lynx. They announced today that they are closing in the next several days and are advising customers to seek refunds from their credit card companies.

    DAS for Brain tumor?

    It may very well be "worth it" to you to consider a dessert party or dinner package for fireworks and/or IlluminoUS viewing, especially if packed-in crowds are an issue for yo. There are no real uncrowded general public areas with good views of the show in either Epcot or the MK. There ARE areas...

    MK Bus wheelchair/ECV at closing

    An issue is when there are wheeled devices in their proper spaces and there is no additional seating at the same level (eg, you need to go up several stairs to get to a seat, as is the case on at least some Disney buses). Some individuals with disabilities who don't use an ecv or a wheelchair...

    Cruising through Ft Lauderdale help, please.

    It is (maybe) a 6 minute bus ride from the Hilton Marina to the Disney ship terminal in Port Everglades, and about half that if the bus doesn't have to stop at the traffic light at 17th and Eisenhower Avenue. You can easily see the ships from south/southeast facing rooms that are above the...

    Fort Lauderdale to Orlando

    There actually ARE separate rental locations for several of the car rental agencies (Avis/Budget and Enterprise, as i recall). They are not necessarily within the port's fence but are considered and advertised as the Port Everglades location. There were more locations/companies prior to Covid...

    The closest Buc-ee's to me is about 45 minutes to the southeast. We are nearby every couple of months. It is an impressive number of pumps.

    Scooter wheel locks

    Most scooters have a key. That is usually sufficient. I am not award of any reports of stolen scooters- do make sure there is sufficient marking on your scooter to differentiate it from any other sxooter. If you have a problem, notify the closest Cast Member. Disney security is very, very present.
