I've invited my dad on our next trip, hoping to go 12/8. He has a prosthetic leg. He still works full time in maintenance for a school system, but I'm still worried about the walking at Disney. How does the GAC work and would he qualify?
I told him about the electric scooters and he told me that he walks a lot at work, so I'm thinking he didn't like that idea. I'm afraid though that he doesn't understand the amount of walking that a Disney vacation includes. If we started the day off with him walking and he tired would we be able to get an ECV or do they tend to run out?
Also I assume that they can stop rides like HM or for him to board. He may would need to get his footing before stepping into the vehicle.
Thanks, I've never traveled before with someone who needs assistance so I'm not quite sure how that part works!
