This trip I finally got the GAC for my son with disabilities. I did it after our 6th day there as it was becoming harder and harder for him to handle the parks. I got the card and was told it was for a party of 6, including the person named on the card. We were a party of 7 but one of us adults would sit out any attractions where need be. So I could live with that policy of 6.
I was appalled, however, when we go to get on Small World and a group of FIFTEEN, yes 15, enter ahead of us with their dad/grandad who was riding a scooter. Then at another attraction, there were 17 in a group on one GAC card. Do the CM's not look at anyone elses card but MINE? Every attraction, the CM would take my card and read it, and see the name of the person it was for and that 6 guests are allowed.
Well that evening I went back by the GR desk to see if they would graciously change our card from 6 to 7. I explained to them what I saw with the large number going in on one card (I know it was all together as they all said, "we're with him") They reiterated that their policy was 6 people. I guess we could have tried to break the rule and get 7 in too but ya' know when it says this is the policy, I try to follow it!
I also got DS a wheel chair our last day there and it was a life saver!!! I don't think he could have walked 10 steps that day and it was New Yrs eve so we were to be there until mid-nite or later. We left at 6:30 pm!!! LOL.
We're a bunch of old folks.
