Disability - Queuing for rides.

This is an interesting thread for us as we will be going in July with my son, who is 9 and is a wheelchair user. There will also be my wife and daughter (who will be 6).

We're (quite reasonably in my view) wanting to spend our holiday together as a family, not split up for large parts of it.

That said I can understand that DLP would want to prevent large groups travelling together all using the special entrance to rides, accompanying a single disabled person in their group.

We'll see how we get on when we get there. The Easy Access wording quoted by Cheshire Figment would suggest that DLP will let immediate family (parents and children) stay together. However the wording refers to a disabled adult riding with their family, not a disabled child.

There was another thread on this point recently, at that time I emailed DLP and they assured me that they will allow the four of us to go on rides together. We'll see when we get there what they say in practice.

Obviously we will only be able to use the Easy Access Card on rides my son is going on. There will be some either (a) he won't want to go on or (b) he can't go on (because you need to be able to walk off in case of an emergency evacuation). I haven't yet got round to looking into which fall into the latter category.

As the OP only has four people altogether in their party, they presumably might find that DLP let them have an easy access pass that lets them all on rides together.

Hi,

We were in a similar situation. Our son though (who is autistic/non verbal), can get out of his wheelchair and walk (just cannot walk for long distances).

So Disney will take that into account when issuing your pass. Essentially a green card with a number of symbols that relate to the situation concerned.
 
the op was asking not if they cud all get on rides together, but to use the pass without the disabled person riding..... there 'shud' b no prob with riding together (altho have only every travelled as a family, so not sure how it works if it is friends?)

I've re-read the original post - to discover I'd missed the point entirely :lmao:
