Help, DH broke ankle! How do we do this?

Go to guest services for the GAC - and when I had it with my boot cast they let us use the fast pass lines. This was about 3 years ago now and I don't know if that changed.
I used that perk when I was really feeling like I couldn't stand anymore.
I even had a CM take me out of one line and put me on a ride- with my family. Oh yes the people in line loved that one.

But I did pretty well in my air cast. I was walking all over the place. I did it slower. But really there is a lot of sitting in Disney too- We took the pace down a few notches and really had a nice trip. (kids loved the GAC and asked if I could break my foot again this year - nice)

It is likely that the rules have been changed since you were there, as Disney's current policy is that anyone with a stamina or mobility difficulty should rent a wheelchair or ECV. (I have both stamina and mobilty problems, so I am well versed in Disney's response )

People should not count on a GAC allowing them to skip a line. In fact, with my GAC (and my wheelchair) I often end up waiting longer than the standby time, since they can only allow so many people with disabilities on at a time for safety reasons.

a friend of mine who walk alot for her job rented a knee scooter when she broke her ankle, this site gives you a picture https://www.rentakneewalker.com/?KW=2&gclid=COyv69PExqICFUFM5QodlWoU6g

she did a rental week by week( not from this site but a local company where we live) and it really helped, it even folded to go in the car

I have a friend who is currently using a knee scooter. She loves it. It is a little slower and doesn’t work for every situation, but it is a good option for some people.
Even if he doesn’t get one to use at WDW, it might be helpful at home.

Also, keep in mind that some lines are a very long distance to walk, even if the wait is short. Soarin’s Fastpass and regular line are 1/4 mile to get in to the boarding area and an equal distance to come back out once you are finished riding.
There are also quite a few situations where you will be standing with no place to sit for several minutes at a time. Most of these are for shows and can be as long as 15 minutes with no place to sit unless you have brought something with you (wheelchair, ECV, etc,)
