Disabled Accessibility Question. DL's Splash Mountain

[MoonPrincess25]

Hello There Everyone!

I heard a coulple days ago that Disney Land's Splash Mountain now has an assistive transfering device for disabled people. This is very happily new to me. Has anyone had a chance to see this device or know how it works at all?

I, myself, am disabled but there was a time before then that I could ride Splash Mountain. It was and still is my favorite ride and when I couldn't get on it anymore, my heart broke.

Understanding that all disabilities are different, there is a small possibility that this device might not work for my transfering abilities. However, if there is an even bigger chance of me being able to go on this ride after 20 years, I would take it in a heartbeat and I would love to learn any information at all. And let me quickly add a big Thank you to Disney for making their Parks more accessible over the years, I am sure you have made the lives of others as well as mine much brighter because of that!

One way or an other, Splash Mountain or no Splash Mountain. I will be happily returning to Disney Land in end of Summer /beginning of Fall as always with smile on my face for it truly is The Happiest Place on Earth

I wish I could help you, I don't really know too much about DisneyLand, but you might find information on the DIS disABILITIES! board.

I'm all for everyone having access to Splash Mountain!
