    DAS changes coming WDW May 20/ DL June 18, 2024

    If Disney decides that one can’t have Genie+ and DAS at the same time, then they will have to figure out a way to provide the PhotoPass pictures for free because it is offered with Genie+. I don’t understand why one feels that you can’t have more than 1 return time with Genie+ because that is...

    DAS changes coming WDW May 20/ DL June 18, 2024

    I guess we are “hyper users” or those that “abuse” the DAS because we get Genie+ and DAS. We mainly go to Disneyland/California Adventures. Disneyland doesn’t have a lot of LL because of size/age, which is basically all of Fantasyland. We are also rope drop people. Oh the horrors!!! We can...

    DAS changes coming WDW May 20/ DL June 18, 2024

    I have severe trauma induced arthritis in my back, left arm and wrist. In fact I am considered as having a physical disability. I was a concert pianist - Juilliard trained. I also have a total knee replacement and scheduled for another one. My DD and I love to ski. My DD is a fantastic skier...

    DAS changes coming WDW May 20/ DL June 18, 2024

    It has been my experience that one of the biggest reasons the LL’s are so long is the down times. When a ride finally comes back up, you can have several hours of G+ and DAS riders. At least in Disneyland. I personally feel they need the 3rd shift back and their attraction mechanics either...

    In our situation it probably would work.

    DAS changes coming WDW May 20/ DL June 18, 2024

    My sister has Crohn’s. She travels with us a lot. It is just the 3 of us - sister, DD and myself. The reality of the situation is when she has a flare or thinks she is going to have a flare, she will not go with us, but will stay in the hotel. If she is out and has a flare, she will tell us to...

    DAS changes coming WDW May 20/ DL June 18, 2024

    I guess we are the “cheaters” because my DD has historically received a DAS and we have used FP, MaxPass and now Genie+ in combination. Our main park is DLR and there are so many non accessible rides in Disneyland. We use DAS for those attractions and Genie+ for the rides where it is...

    DAS changes coming WDW May 20/ DL June 18, 2024

    They were kicked out (or asked to sit and wait outside) because an “emotional support” dog is not a service dog under ADA.

    DAS changes coming WDW May 20/ DL June 18, 2024

    A couple of thoughts. By making it virtual call only, Disney is eliminating the possibility of being declined virtually and then showing up at Guest Services in person and getting the DAS card. I have read the advice on the boards here. While I don’t believe it is “cheating” the system...

    DAS changes coming WDW May 20/ DL June 18, 2024

    I am not sure but I do think you were wanting Disney to provide your DH with a cooling vest. You even previously stated that his work gave him one. Once a Moderator pointed out to you that the ADA doesn’t require Disney to provide personal items as a means to accommodate your changed your tune...

    DAS changes coming WDW May 20/ DL June 18, 2024

    I don’t think that requiring documentation is going to solve the abuse problem. Those that want to “cheat” are going to find away around it. I recently had an experience with 2 people and a German Shepherd in a public waiting room. I was trying to get to a seat and a guy had the dog...

    DAS changes coming WDW May 20/ DL June 18, 2024

    I believe by saying “developmental disabilities or similar” and using “autism” as an example, Disney is not limiting disabilities to only developmental disabilities, it is clearly eliminating physical disabilities. Face it, those physical disabilities are already accommodated with accessible...

    DAS & Quiet places

    We like going to GCH Craftsman Grill for a late lunch. It is quiet and you can sit outside amongst the pine trees.

    2024 Summer Virtual Series

    I guess I was thinking only of Disneyland when I was wondering how a Mickey waffle was a snack.

    2024 Summer Virtual Series

    How is a waffle a snack? I thought Mickey pretzel. Totally undecided still and I usually do the Summer Shorts.

    Hotel Choice

    You can go around and take the trams however, it isn’t a shortcut. By the time you go around to get on the trams, you might as well just keep walking and go though DTD. We cut through the parking lots to Security. We actually enjoyed the walk. You could also take the ART in the morning and...

    walking from Best Western Courtesy Inn Hotel

    We stayed at the Springhill Suites on Ball Road and walked Walnut. We then cut through the parking lots after Mickey & Friends parking structure to security at Downtown Disney. We liked it. It was about a 15 minute walk to the turnstiles.

    Candy Cane Inn Room Types

    We stay in a Standard room on the second floor. I like to stay where the stairs are. They are a little smaller rooms but they have a small table and chairs on the balcony/walkway.

    DAS group size

    I have used Genie+ in combination with DAS and it works great. You coordinate DAS with Genie+ times as they don’t expire. Just remember the DAS person has to ride when using DAS.

    Purchase Photopass on property?

    I did this right after they opened and before Genie+. I purchased it at the photo place just to the left of the turnstiles to Disneyland. They were very helpful and it worked great. Keep in mind that you get any photos taken of you during your race.
