to carrying a small flashlight around for some of the very darkest queues for guests with low light vision issues?
to carrying a small flashlight around for some of the very darkest queues for guests with low light vision issues?
just thinking ahead for next timeMy son had a few moments of disorientation on some of the darker queues (which seemed just fine for normal visioned me..) one I can remember was space mountain as we were trying to walk fast through the FP lane - he grabbed a rail at one point and yelled "I can't see a THING!" I was just thinking of tossing in a flashlight for him but didn't know if that would be frowned upon.
Some places may be a real problem. When I went into HM I had the headlight on my ECV turned on, but apparently the rug is so dark that I almost could not see where the beam was hitting the floor. And I don't have weak vision.

A pad of paper and pens/pencils are readily accessible at each location for Cast Members to utilize, if necessary, to communicate with Guests with needs at Walt Disney World Resort. Cast Members with abilities in Sign Language can be identified with the appropriate language pin. Guest Assistance Packets containing dialogue, flashlights, and pen and paper are available at or near the performance areas or entrances for most shows and attractions. Guests should contact a host/hostess at the attractions.
thanks for all the tips and commiserations.He's 11, so no flashlight shenanigans would be happening.
Now, I guess another question is ...is he going to get a load of crap from the dis-nazis for disturbing their magical dark queue experience? (don't answer that.)![]()
I have eye problems, and have trouble with dark queues. If I don't have a pen flashlight, I sometimes turn on the cellphone light. I have the most trouble at Nemo, movie theater type attractions, and Pirates. It helps me if their is a guide railing like in Space Mtn.
Sometimes my DH will forget, and go ahead and then hear me say "I CAN'T SEE".... Since my disablity is double vision, I have to wear prisim lens, and they can get tricky sometimes.
