Finally, going to WDW next month. I am visually impaired and have recently started using a cane. Two things however make me nervous and that's dark areas and stairs. I had my question asked a while ago about which rides had dark or dimly lit queue areas. What about ones with stairs? It takes a while for me to go up/down and I just want to make a mental note.
Thanks!
 
You have a cane which should indicate to a CM that you have a disability. You can also get a GAC that would state you have visual limitations and cannot do stairs if you do not use the cane. You can fold the cane and store it on you on rides or if it is a solid one then leave it with a CM if the ride is a bit wild like a roller coaster. On rides with stairs like Toy Story Mania the CM will send you to a line that will avoid the stairs. In a dark theater you can ask a CM to escort you to your seat. Good luck on your trip.
 
You can get a GAC to avoid stairs such as in splash mountain. your cane should tip a CM off that you have a disability, but not all people who need a cane need to bypass stairs (as opposed to wheelchair which obviously cannot do stairs), so a GAC may not be a bad idea. You may not have the option of taking stairs slowly if there is a line behind you, and at times you may have to way standing on stairs, which i know can be very difficult... i would ask for a GAC to bypass stairs (which i am getting this next trip for times i want to walk rather than use my wheelchair)
 
Thanks for the info. I have been to DLR before and know that Splash and Thunder have stairs. Is it the same at WDW? Are there any others beside Toy Story?
 

Following have stairs

Splash Mountain
Big Thunder Mountain
Toy Story Midway Mania
Space Mounain (one of the lines)
