Can 4 people fit in the accessible vehicles, 2 on wheelchair side and 2 on the other? Thanks!
Regarding the bolded - my daughter can't transfer and uses the wheelchair car.If there are a lot of scooters/wheelchairs in the accessible queue, they will bring ordinary pods in for people who can transfer. You have to wait for anywhere from 6 to 10 ordinary pods to bypass the side section before they'll change the points and bring one in for you.
However, if there are two families with transferrable passengers, they will not load both pods but only the first one. That really annoyed me last year because we had to wait over 40 minutes to get on because there was a large party of elderly people ahead of us, all in wheelchairs but all of whom transferred, and they could easily have filled both pods but chose not to. Someone suggested they can't fill both as a Health & Safety thing.
What surprised - and pleased - us was what after our first ride there was no-one waiting in the accessible queue so they asked us if we'd like to stay on! Would we ever!! Well, it would only have gone round empty otherwise, so why not!
This year we saw the actual wheelchair pod twice, and rode in it ourselves the final time we rode. The wheelchair pod, as well as having the pull-back knob for firing also has a button in the top of the gun for people who can't physically pull the string. I used a bit of both - and got the best score of the hour!
Sorry to hijack the thread, but just a question at TSM. This is the first chance I've seen photo's of the wheelchair accessible ride car. When we go next year, my mom will be with us and she cannot transfer to a manual wheelchair. The accessible ride car looks to be big enough to accommodate her personal scooter. Would she be able to ride?

Jungle cruise can take a scooter I think but only because the platform is large enough that one can go on it safely.There are no rides that a scooter will go on.
