Wheelchair limit

[alizesmom]

Is there any attraction that can accommodate more than one chair at a time? We will be traveling with 3. My daughter could transfer if necessary but it would be impossible for the boys.

I can't think of any. Maybe Universe of Energy but they'd be spread out over the different trains.

I'm wondering about Small World and Living with the Land (Epcot)...honestly though I can't remember for sure.

Buzz Lightyear, Winnie the Pooh, Killimanjaro Safari and Jungle Cruise are all one chair only.

I know there are a couple other posters here with multiple kids who use wheelchairs, so hopefully one of them can offer some tips as well.

If I remember the accessible boat from LWTL correctly there's not enough room for 2 chairs on it, let alone 3. Maybe 2 children size ones but then it'd be more of a "would they allow 2 at a time" issue. I can't remember quite how far the ramp goes into the boat but I don't think it'd happen.

DH and i both rent scooters in the parks. We're not totally dependent on them and could slowly exit a ride on our own in an emergency. Disney is reluctant to allow more than one disabled guest on a ride at a time in case there's a problem with a ride and cast members or emergency crews have to rush in and help people evacuate. When we were at Disneyland last spring we couldn't even ride Splash Mountain at the same time; we had to take turns.

The one and only ride where 2 chairs can go on at one time is the Great Movie Ride. Both of my girls are paraplegics and can not stand so this is what we do. On Buzz my youngest takes her chair up the ramp and slides over onto the seat and they pull her chair off and her sister wheels on and stays in her chair. On Winnie the Pooh youngest daughter wheels in transfers over to the seat, chair comes off and sister wheels in. They only allow one wheelchair on It's A Small World, the ride in Mexico and the Land. On the Land boat my youngest takes her chair on slides onto a seat and chair comes off, sister wheels on. The other boat rides we do on one on one days because the seats are to low for her to get back up into her chair and at 90 pounds of dead weight I can no longer lift her up from that low. You won't be allowed to ride on Spaceship Earth together unless 2 of the 3 can stand and walk so that is another ride we have to do on one on one days.
