GAC & Parade Seating

[SueM in MN]

This isn't completely true. We've gone to Disney for the past 5 years with my brother who is 27 and in a wheelchair. Everytime we have gone we have had 5 people in our party (including my brother) and they have let all of us sit in the handicapped area with him. We usually just sit on the ground in front of his chair. We have never had a problem with the CM's not letting our entire party sit in the handicapped area nor have I ever seen any other family have this problem. There are always entire families sitting together in the handicapped area.

It depends on how busy that area is.
We have been asked to have everyone in our party sit outside of the handicapped area except for one person who stayed with our DD in her wheelchair. Other people have posted the same as we experienced.
Others have posted the same experience as you.
