    DAS changes coming WDW

    It's 120 days or the end date of your ticket media, whichever date comes FIRST. So, APs and other non-dated tickets would get 120 days, but folks on set tickets that expire (like a 7 day PH) will have their pass expire at the end of the final ticket use.

    DAS changes coming WDW

    If approved for DAS, you will likely be at a max of 4 for your party, all-inclusive. So, yes, part of your traveling party will not be included on the DAS and you will have to adapt under Disney's new stated policy.

    DAS changes coming WDW

    I think what you mean to say is that if a non-DAS accommodation will STILL work for some people/types of disabilities, they will offer that. Nothing will work BETTER than DAS, but it doesn't need to. For the law, it just needs to be reasonable and work "enough".

    This goes back to my "greater scrutiny on developmental disabilities in adults" is probably coming.

    DAS changes coming WDW

    No, they can't cure the disability, but almost every major medical site has stated that through treatment, the symptoms of the disease can be mitigated for many as they age, so it's no guarantee that a disabled autistic child will need the same services as a disabled autistic adult. Some...

    Who Pays? A Going Out To Dinner Question….

    I'd just ask for separate family checks when the waiter takes your order. It's what I do when my friends and I triple couples date - it works SO well to not have hard feelings when everyone knows they are just paying and tipping for themselves. PS - We are already handling 2 of the 3 couples...

    DAS changes coming WDW

    As far as Universal's current policy, I'm sure they are watching Disney closely this summer, and will be adjusting based on how Disney's new plan is received and implemented, prior to opening their big new park in 2025. AKA - They may also be accumulating all their data for a slam dunk case...

    If these are official, holy crap...they really wanted a slam dunk legal case to destroy DAS...

    Yes, being one, allergy folks are usually highly restricted on menus and occassionally can't even eat certain courses. But you still pay the same price if it's prix fixe, buffet, or character meal. No discount for the lack of usage.

    DAS changes coming WDW

    In the end, legally, Disney does not need to make sure every person on the planet can ride their rides and enter their theme park. They just need to do what is reasonable for every person on the planet to ride their rides and enter their theme park. If it requires heroic, expensive efforts on...

    I am assuming that will be the accommodation for all competent single and 2 person adult parties.

    It may be, unless the developmental disability is severe.

    DAS changes coming WDW

    Yes, this I agree with...they wanted an absolute slam dunk legal case before they made a big swap b/c they know it's always coming.

    Sure they do - parents with a baby are routinely in a queue alone, and then rider-swapping. Disney won't let the 2 parents just jump ahead together b/c they have a 6 month old.

    DAS changes coming WDW

    Every party will now do a full standby every time vs going LL to LL. For example... Party A DAS - 6 people 2 rides with 1 hour stand by waits (and LL waits of 15 min) - Party A makes reservation at gate at 9am Arrives at ride 1 at 9:10am and enters LL Rides as a full group and gets off at...

    DAS changes coming WDW

    This was an answer to a non-disabled poster who asked how he and his disabled mom would work rider swap when he never wanted to ride without her b/c he's sick of most rides. He would likely not have to actually enter a ride vehicle and ride if he waited through the line and then spoke to the CM...

    Then you could go through the line, and step out at the load area, letting the CM know you prefer to head to the exit and re-enter LL with your mom.

    You would got through the line and then ride. It will probably be your option whether you ride with your mom again or not. Tons of families with kids 2 and under do this every day at Disney. Individual parents ride solo while swapping their kid(s).

    DAS changes coming WDW

    They may. It will probably depend on the age of the other kid and the severity of the autism. Autism symptoms can (but don't always) diminish over time - sometimes that diminishment would allow autistics to wait in the lines or to use a rider swap vs needing a DAS. I'm sure Disney is not...
