We arrive in 33 days. I have submitted, and have "approved cards" from IBCCES for my two kiddos. And I received an email from Universal asking about our dates of travel about 2-3 weeks ago. I've had no follow-up from them. We had the AAC cards for all 3 of my kiddos last trip in 2021, one is a...

I don't think it's a regulation, like an FAA regulation. But each airline, and gate agent these days, has it's own rules about these things. I see lots of kids getting on flights with blankets, stuffed animals, tablets, toys, etc, in addition to their personal items and carry-ons. But I've seen...

Yes, but they will want to have them for a while to play and take pictures with. To ship them, they have to send them before we leave the park. And my DS is not likely to want to give his up at all. To avoid his autism meltdown, I will budget the $50 for his to be a carry-on. I'm not sure I want...

For those who have flown Avelo - have you taken a lightsaber home? How did they handle this? Avelo charges for anything and everything, so I'm wondering what/if (there's got to be an upcharge!) they do with the lightsabers. Last year Delta didn't care about DD's lightsaber in its carry case from...

Is there a reason you can't bring the wc/scooter with you? Or are you renting from Disney in the parks? The companies will drop off at one hotel and pick up at another if you start at Disney and end at Universal. We are doing the opposite this year. If you have a scooter, call a HC taxi to take...

I just did a Google search for this info since we'll need to get some documentation for DX and her chair if so. She does have an appointment with our rheumatologist in November before our next trip so we can get all we need then with plenty of time. It looks like there is some general IAC...

Is there a variety of refillable mug styles available at Pop? It's been so long since we stayed on Disney property (pre-kids yikes!!). I saw that there are holiday and different versions, a stainless Skyliner, and the elusive StarWars style on the Disney Food Blog. But can they be found at Pop...

Oh boy, we had not encountered this last year, but we didn't go on any rides more than once. We didn't book anything that we already had advanced DAS times for. This trip however I can see DS wanting to do some rides more than once. Thanks for the heads up. And I'm sorry it glitched your day...

I have to second the suggestion for using 2 single strollers if you have 2 adults with you. On our first trip in 2013, we did this because maneuvering a double stroller through crowds of Disney is just a PIA, and we were there at Christmas. Both strollers had wheelchair tags because all 3 of our...

Since everyone was discussing queuing up for the Skyliner... if you have a wheelchair, is there a separate line? Do you queue up with everyone until you approach the station, then get directed off to a separate section for loading? We rode the Skyliner from DHS to CB just for the experience and...

So we just booked our Feb stay - 2 preferred pool rooms. I had to call for help because I could not get the 2nd room to show available to book using one Disney account login. But super helpful CM got us all booked and noted the ressies for connecting rooms. We'll be coming from a 3-night stay at...

Parties over 6 are different. You will require assistance from a CM. When we met up with friends during our last trip, we actually did exactly this. I'm pretty sure we could see our entire party of 9 but we couldn't add more than 6 total (DAS holder + 5 companions) to a single return time. We...

How many in your group total? We are a party of 5, with 2 DAS. Feb. 2022 trip: We were able to select attractions under just one DAS user and add the rest of our party under that one user. You essentially used it as if only 1 person had DAS. A DAS holder could be included in the companion...

My sister and DH's family love using them. New Haven is super convenient for our family. My fear is they are a one-flight-a-day airline from Twead New Haven. If the wind blows too hard, they cancel flights. Return flights at least only get diverted to Hartford. But outgoing, we could miss days...

We've considered that. And storms are just as likely to impact flying as driving. We have family along the way for pit stops/shelter. We even considered the auto train. I wish we had more flexibility. Being teachers keeps us stuck to specific days of travel. And yes, most of the NE is on Feb...

It was Delta regular old main cabin with a return flight. 1-2 stop flights down and back. 8-hour travel times. Late PM departures on the way down getting in after midnight the next day. It's shocking!

I know we are 8 months out, but holy heck are flight prices out of control for us right now! Looking and watching for our Feb break trip from anywhere in the Northeast to MCO and the cheapest I can find is just over $550pp for the worst flights. We can leave from any airport from NYC to Boston...

My father actually purchased them for my son years ago and we never used them on his bike. I packed them on a whim one trip. They look like these...

@mamabunny My DX asked for a large pin or hat that says "Yes I can transfer on my own" so the CMs stop asking and setting off her brother (ASD). I want to thank everyone for sharing their experiences, thoughts, and perspectives.

Thank you for asking this. I was literally about to come asking for some suggestions on if the less expensive wheelchairs are reliable, comfortable etc for use at the parks. My DX has the same challenges, although we are currently awaiting official diagnoses after wading through the insurance...
