We go to WDW on average 1xyr. This summer we are planning the great American road trip including 3-4 days at DLR. I had planned to stay at the HoJo but my dad is giving us his Class A RV and it would be crazy not to use it so we will be at an RV park. I have several questions/ concerns... DD has Autism and uses a wheelchair In crowded situations, and I have auto immune disease which necessitates use of an ECV. We were planning to drive to the park daily, but is there any way to get from the parking to the parks with two mobility devices? Also, is there any point trying to see WOC with our challenges? Third, is there anything else I should be aware of when doing our planning? I hate not knowing anything- Gah!
 
First you can,take trams or the courtesy shuttle, or walk/roll to the parks from the parking structure. Park in Mickey and friends, NOT toy story lot. You have to take a bus from the Toy Story lot, and this is a total pain as all mobility devices have to be tied down on the bus. There are many more options from the Mickey and friends lot plus it is much closer to the parks themselves.

Second you should know that most FP lines within DL are not accessible, so getting a FP will not be helpful if you have mobility devices. When are you planning on going? That will make a difference. In terms of what lines will be long when. I will try to type more specific information tomorrow from my computer. I am on my phone now.

I think WOC can be done. You will need fastpasses no matter what mobility devices or GAC you may have. I suggest speaking to CMs as soon as you can that night once they set things up about what your best options are for the show. They let us into the section early after letting US wait to the side of the line due to the nature of my disability. We were in the handicapped viewing area in the back on the far left.

I will post more tomorrow. Hope this helps.
