Wheelchair + taxi?

[dawnandnala]

Hi-
I wasn't sure if I should post this here or on the disabilities board but here's my question....

I am traveling with my BFF and her DD13 - daughter has been in an accident and will now have a wheelchair for our trip. I have read up on using the buses with the wheelchair for getting around but we have a ADR for BOMA at 7:30am and I am worried about getting there from POP. I am thinking taxi is the best solution to getting there that early but can a taxi accomodate a wheelchair? (Non-motorized/foldable)

Sure - since it's foldable, the driver can stow it in the trunk.

The taxis also have vans and minivans, so getting something to move your party around should not be an issue.

Also, call Disney bus ops out of TTC a few days or so before. Disney used to have and I think they still have a pair of busses outiftted for multiple wheelchairs.They are used for going point to point as opposed to a regular route. They might and I stress might be able to send you one of those busses or a regular route bus that has a lift/ramp and make life easier on you.

You can use the button/number on your room phone labeled "transportation" to call.
