Seven Tips for Doing Disney with Kids with Disabilities (That you won’t find anywhere else!)

Ok, I know everyone and their brother has written about their Disney travel experiences, but I still want to highlight a couple of things that we didn’t find online (and I read EVERYTHING Disney before we went).  For convenience, I’m going to split this into two, brief, focused entries.

First: Accessibility

What you can read anywhere:

• Upon arrival in any park, guests with a disability that prohibits them from waiting in a standard line may obtain a DAS pass to present at a ride and receive a return time at the attraction comparable to the current wait time.
• Disney has lists of accessibility options for each ride.  A handful of rides were never renovated, and wheelchairs can still just skip the line.

What you won’t get anywhere else:

1. Your stroller can count as a wheelchair

You can get a handy tag at Guest Services that enables you to take the strollers into all of those places that say, “No Strollers Allowed.” (The Disney Parks Moms Panel says the opposite.  I don’t know why.  There were loads of strollers with the tag – including mine)
