I fully support this, however, I’m 87 years old and any line longer than 30 minutes almost guarantees that I will have to leave the line to use the restroom. When DAS was available without today’s restrictions I could avoid this, however, am I and my family now going to be ostracized if I have to leave the line and then try to return?
Disney doesn’t have to do much. If they have the rule in place the guests can complain to a CM and expect some action to stop the rudeness of the entitled offenders. It really gets out of control some days.
I feel that if you are a parent walking back w/a child or I see an older person walking back saying, please, I’m sorry, gotta go, hopefully we’ll make it, I’ll excuse that.
Guests who have been denied DAS and have to expect a disabled party member to wait until they reach near the front of the line are fine. People whose partner had to take a young child to the bathroom are fine.
You adults or teens, if one of your party needs to use the restroom or grab a snack, please wait until you are all together before getting in line. I’m not going to scream at people (I’m there to have fun), but I WILL judge the heck out of you. And if there are 3 or more people pushing to join someone near the front, I will probably find a CM.
It is very simple to change your thought process and how you approach a line. MANY groups have one or two that run ahead and get in the line. Several minutes later their group catches up with their snacks and drinks and then try to work their way through the line. The proper and polite thing to do is to get your whole group together and THEN proceed to the line as a group. If that means that you all get snacks first, then you do it as a group. If a child needs to use the bathroom most people will understand. When you return with them you can usually get back in line where the direction of the line changes without having to have everyone move aside while you try to squeeze by everyone in line.
On several occasions I have been the mean grumpy old man who very strongly suggested that those trying to cram by actually waited where they were while their friends ahead of us worked their way back in the line to meet them.
It is nice to see that Disney is trying to correct this problem. It is about time.
I agree and disagree.
I understand that a child may need to use the bathroom/ although they should be reminded before they get in line. I teach preschool and we all go at the same time and inevitably as soon as we get back, one has to go.
Elderly and disabled too.
However, when 4 or more all cram in to meet their group, that is where I draw the line.
I was at a park w my son, daughter, and son inlaw. We were waiting for a table at a restaurant. The person in front of us let about 10 people in, two by two. I finally had enough and remibded her where tge end of the line was. She said,”Oh they are not eating.” An argument ensued.

For those who don’t see how holding someone’s place in line is a problem, YOU are the problem!!
Enter the line/queue as a group like everyone else.
