my wife has a condition that does not allow her to stand in lines. the DAS works fine as it gives a time to arrive at the ride and then you are worked in through the lightening lane. it has worked just fine in the two trips we have done since she came down with it..
I don’t know what the solution is, but the issue could be better explained. When a person gets a DAS, let’s say they have already waited 55 minutes out of the line. Then they go at their time and it is totally possible to wait another 20 minutes. Problem is some people’s digestive system can’t wait the 20 minutes. Sometimes the person can’t even tell if they have enough time to make a toilet.
I’m happy to hear AH had a good experience, that would not be my experience when I went in June. As a matter of fact the Radiator Springs ride was one of the problem areas. The worst was the incredibles ride, when there they got us up then made us wait rorschach a very long time while others go by and make you feel like your a problem for having a disability. I believe that they need to try harder as well as just train there people to acutely give a dang.
IM disabled and never use DAS. IF I have to use special access for a normal day, I plan ahead. The very fact that almost 3veru Disney thing has guess assist access at the very least should be enough. People complaining about not being able to afford buffing out scratches or asking for special stroller parking are confused. If you can afford Disney, but can’t afford to keep things on good repair it can’t afford good repair, you’re doing it wrong. I can’t believe the horrible drivel dropping out lately on this site
I’m disabled and literally can’t go to the parks without DAS, and honestly the current system is absolutely trash. There have been times I haven’t been able to ride things because the LL line was still too long for me to be able to wait in. Just because your disability doesn’t require you to use LL, doesn’t mean other people’s disabilities are the same.
My son has utilized DAS but also previous versions since 2012. Over the past 10 years it moved from instant front line access via exit to written paper where you get a return time that is less than 15 min, to the online standby time equivalent to the ride (5 to 150 min). Overall, I think the paper pass with 15 min return times was best as it allowed you to queue for multiple rides nearby and then ride them sequentially without any concern for missing your time or preventing you from reserving other rides. The new DAS indeed simply treats you like a Genie+ or Lightning Lane where you can run into issues such as waiting 2 hours for a ride and being unable to do anything else. Having to go to the bathroom or leave the line due to issues related to your disability and lose your DAS queue time and have to restart. It honestly has caused more frustrations and seems like Disney confused disability with people wanting to just Fast Pass/Lightning Lane instead of wait. They’re very different because you never know when your disability is going to cause issues that cause issues with how the DAS works. It is nice, but I will say my son has had issues related to his disability and we had to lose the DAS queue time as a result. Also, I have gone to Disney with a broken leg in 2 places and had to ride in a wheelchair after multiple surgeries… There is indeed no protection or consideration for wheelchairs in the park. I felt smothered and was hit multiple times by people. So I empathize with this person’s concerns regarding DAS and Disney needing to improve protocols for wheelchair/handicap individuals in the parks.
