I'm on the fence about renting a wheelchair. My 16 year old son had surgery on his feet late last year (end of September and end of December). While they are healed, and he is clear to resume activity, they still hurt him after about two hours of standing (his doctor said it could take up to a year for full recovery). We go to Disney in June (for 8 nights) and I just don't think he can do even a half day on his feet, let alone a full day. We tend to be rope drop people, and we are staying on-site. Which would be the easier option:
1. Length of stay wheelchair rental from the park. We would likely do early entry, do a few rides for an hour or two (my son could do this), then get a wheelchair for the rest of the day.
2. Rent a 3rd party wheelchair, bring it on the buses (we'd fold it, and carry it on), and have it for all day (saving us a trip to guest services every day, but at the expense of having to deal with it on the bus).
Which do you think would be the easier option? Do I need to worry about wheelchair availability mid-June, a few hours after park open? Again, he doesn't need it all the time, he just can't do long periods on his feet yet.
Thank you!
