"Every attraction has a defined process to support this option based on a person’s disability" Disney own words on website
Not saying I want
DAS and only that, what I want is to know what they will do for the umbrella of IBS/IBD if denied, I'm not asking for X option over Y option, it would be nice to know ahead of time to work around whatever they are suggesting, as anyone with those conditions will tell you, you can't just SHOW UP to anything as a viable option, going to each individual queue and learning a different strategy per ride will be extremely difficult to deal with and only excacerbates the condition more
Some peoples lives are more difficult to manage and planning is essential to their daily lives, sorry to admit it, but it's a fact, that's why people are reaching out upset, the lack of detail is hard on people, DAS is very straight forward and tells you exactly how to handle the day BEFOREHAND, AQR is "who knows" go find out and see, do you see the difference?
If I was told of an option that was lesser than DAS but specifically detailed, I would be calmer and more accepting, and I would imagine so would a lot of others as well
When I got my ride accommodation from Universal and CW approved, both told me in full detail how the program works, GREAT, I know how to plan my day, thank you very much, I'll be on my way. I don't know how those two parks would handle my situation if not granted, the good news is, it's not a concern because I was approved which means others in the same situation would be approved. But in a few days I'll know if Disney will do the same, and based on their description of what is accepted and from reports, I'm a realist, and I'm not exactly optimistic I'll be accepted, so I need to be prepared to figure out plan B, C, D....Z, travelling to Orlando once a year to attend even 3 days of parks is a huge financial investment do that and knowing how to navigate a park with my disability is 100% a factor on if I buy tickets or not, others would agree, which is why you're hearing people of refunding tickets if DAS was denied because they know it just won't be financially worth it, we're not talking about a $10 thing, we're talking about thousands of dollars, and in some cases, people that are already knee deep in committed funds (plane, hotel, cars, tickets/AP, etc) and are stressing out they've wasted all that money. People decide to invest money in anything depending on a desired outcome based on the information they are given, if after you have invested money, and something changes for the worse, you would be upset.
If I get denied, I have a reason to be angry on my current trip because it was an option that has been removed from me, doesn't mean Disney has to care. Now, in the future, I have the appropriate knowledge to decide if I want to make that investment anymore or not, it has become a CHOICE if I want to partake or not. I understand why a bunch of people are saying in future they won't partake, they don't see the benefit anymore vs the money needed. If denied, I will have to attempt LLMP, LLSP and other methods to enjoy the best I can because no other choice unfortunately and see if is something that is "worth it" anymore from what I spend to come
