GAC questions for Disney LAND in CA

[triplefigs]

We always get a GAC for our DS at WDW and will be getting one for him at DL (this is our 1st trip to DL). Can you tell me what rides and shows have "alternate entrances"? If you would rather not post the info here (there have been reports of GAC abuse at WDW), please PM me. I will also post this on the Disneyland forum.

Thanks!

We were WDW vets for years, but have moved to AZ, so we're DL AP-holders now. We have 2 sons with cerebral palsy, so we're very familiar with the differences btw the 2 parks.

DL has MANY alternate entrances, and many of the attractions do it differently. Compared to WDW, DL was built much earlier, before ADA. So, while many queue's in WDW allow for regular entrances, DL has many more alternate entrances. Most of the Fantasyland rides enter through the exit; Splash, Space, Indy, and POTC also go through the exit, but usually have alternate accessible lines there, so be sure to look for them. There are usually CM's there to ask, and that's what we did until we got familiar with the procedures...but even then, sometimes different CM's will do it a little different, so just try to be flexible.

Most of the attractions in DCA are much more accessible, and have most GAC users to enter through the nl queue.

Hope this helps!

Thanks so much! My DS uses a wheelchair and has CP. He also needs the alteranate entrances as he's on the ASD spectrum. Appreciate the help!!!
