The one thing that concerns me from the details listed in the blog post is that the FP+ Mickey head will turn blue to signal the CM to check the DAS details. I just wish they'd pick a different color so non-disability guests don't assume we're trying to get in the FP+ queue without belonging there.

True, it could also make someone who doesn't have a DAS question when theirs turns blue and they are denied, yet someone before them was permitted. The Olaf FSF band turns multi-colored when scanned at DHS, so a different color would be possible.
At least it will stop certain CMs favouring people when it comes to return times,
So many times when I got my son's certain CMs would put down 5min wait time and wink or say have a magical day.
I'm positive I can't be the only person this has happened to.

We had a CM put down the current time so we could just go in right away. We had a FP and couldn't. I thought it was nice, but I'd rather have consistency and predictability across the board. Keeps expectations reasonable, IMO.
It's always been by the rules at WDW for ds. There's been times where the 10 minutes weren't subtracted though.[/QUOTE]
Doesn't that mean that it has not always been "by the rules"?
I love the idea of having one less thing to carry, personally. Plus it seems a little less obvious to people around, which as someone with social anxiety is a nice thought. I'd be interested in seeing how they set it up to prevent waiting in long, crowded FP+ queue, but I'm cautiously optimistic.
The usual number that DAS is made to allow is 6 ( 5 plus the person with the disability). They have always made exceptions to that when needed with both GAC (the previous program) and DAS.The article confused me. We have 7 traveling with us, all immediate family. So basically one of us will just sit out. This is the first time we will all be able to go to the parks together. DS-30 was stationed overseas, and his wife. Myself, DH, DS-18, DS-14, DD-9 (DAS is for her).,and our very first trip to WDW! I hope they will make an exception. We will also be using the FP+ system if we can fiqure it out, LOL we are used to DL's system....
are you going to WDW or to Disneyland?This is a basic question but thought the posters to this thread would definitely know -- we're just planning our trip for August with our 6yo autistic son and I just found out about this DAS this afternoon. His first trip, we were there 8 years ago ourselves (no FP bands then.....
My question for this thread is: if you have DAS and Fastpass on the bands (sorry, I don't know all the abbreviations), you'd be able to have 2 times at once that you can go to the 'quick' line (for 2 different attractions)? And in order to get the DAS or FP for a particular attraction, you need to go to a kiosk AT that attraction?
thanks! (I'm sure I'll have more questions later....)
