Touring plan in an ECV?

[Robindianne]

I posted this on the Themeparks thread and got good responses, and they recommended coming here.

So is there such a thing as a touring plan designed for when someone is in an ECV? We have always used unofficial guide touring plans, but this time (Christmas, mega crowds) DH is sick and will probably be in an ECV. Would this change our touring plan? Does someone make a touring plan with ECVs in mind? Anybody toured with a touring plan (UG or other) in an ECV? I'd love to hear any thoughts as we're new to this sick touring thing.

Thanks so much!

WDW is pretty ECV-wheelchair friendly so I'm not sure the touring plan would be much different than non-ECV users!

Since most of the lines are mainstreamed, the touring plan wouldn't change. The only difference would be if there are some rides you cannot do because of physical limitations. When my extended family went last December, we used the UG plan.

The scooters are welcomed through the ride queues and the shows. The scooters do not go on the rides just through the line. On some rides you will use the handicap access line for the scooter. Examples are Buzz Lightyear and Toy Story Mania.

There may be some rides where you may have to transfer to a wheelchair to ride if it's possible and you need to do it that way. Most rides will be a scooter to a certain point and then you park it to get onto the ride yourself.

What you have to plan is which rides you want to do and how you you want to do them.

Some scooter riders take it to the entrance area of a ride, but walk the ride line. Others take the scooter as far as they can on the ride line.
