Disability Tips for the Park - Disability Access for Disney World Attractions

When it comes to planning a trip to Disney World, we try to provide you with as many resources as possible so you can spend more time having fun at the parks. One of the most amazing things about choosing Disney World for your frogtastic family vacation is that the parks offer accommodations for those with disabilities or have specific needs. Many experiences offer a variety of services related to visual, audio or mobility needs. Disney World also offers the Disability Access Service, or DAS, for those unable to spend long periods in a line queue. Check out our full overview of DAS at Disney World to learn more about this helpful program.

Whether you're using DAS or not, each attraction has different accommodations in place for guests. Every family is unique — and your needs may vary from someone else's, so we've created a list of every ride at Disney World and how each attraction accommodates guests needing special assistance. Ready to get a hop in? You can skip down to the park you are most interested in or just keep reading!

Kelly Says...

Hello! I see that Guardians of the Galaxy ride is included in the DAS ride list above. Is this correct even though there’s a virtual queue for the ride, or must you join the virtual queue and then visit a cast member once your group is called to show your DAS pass in order to use the fast lane? Thank you so much.

Oct 8, 2024 at 2:10 p.m.

FrogBlog Says...

Hi Kelly!

You will need to join the virtual queue, but if you get a Boarding Group, you can then visit a cast member to use DAS.

I have autism and I have a das pass so I don't have to wait in lines anyway today I went to Hollywood studios and there was a big line to meet woody and Jessie so my mum told them about my das pass so I wouldn't have to wait in line anyway they told me I wasn't aloud and that only make a wish people are aloud to skip the line because of this it's made me sad because I can't wait in lines and I don't think it's fair I have a das pass so I shouldn't have to wait so because of this it means I can't meet characters Because lines are to long

FrogBlog Says...

Hi Heather!

We're sorry to hear about your experience, but if you still have any park days left, we want to let you know that select character locations with traditional queues can accept DAS. This includes Meet Mickey at Town Square Theater, Princess Fairytale Hall, Meet Ariel at Her Grotto and Enchanted Tales with Belle at Magic Kingdom; Meet Olaf at Celebrity Spotlight at Hollywood Studios; and Meet Favorite Disney Pals at Adventurers Outpost at Animal Kingdom. However, not all character experiences offer return times.

Amber Says...

I am an amputee and I use a wheelchair to get around. However I am renting a scooter for our upcoming Disney trip. I know that some rides I will need to transfer to a regular wheelchair for. My question is, how big are the wheelchairs that are at the parks for this? I am a larger person and don't want to get onto a ride in a wheelchair that's too small for me. My scooter will be able to hold my walker as I'll need it to transfer, but it will not also hold a wheelchair. Any information I can get will be most helpful.

Jan 24, 2024 at 3:50 p.m.

FrogBlog Says...

Hi Amber!

We don't have specific dimensions, but the manual wheelchairs are typically standard size. If anyone else in the Frog Pond knows, feel free to jump in!

Suzanne Says...

I need a bit of clarifying, I had 2 sproglets who will probably need DAS, as well as myself. Dad doesnt need one. But I am the composer of this trip so I have the app and everything linked to me. there will be times when Dad and older child wont want to go on things, will there be any problems if young sprog and myself get return times?

Also, last time, they were in strollers with the red ticket, which was brilliant as meant we were close to the exits in case it became too much. They both walk/run now, but wondered if there is any way to request those type of seats again? We need a swift and easy exit sometimes before the meltdowns start.

Nov 7, 2023 at 12:44 p.m.

FrogBlog Says...

Hi Suzanne!

Generally, one DAS holder can cover up to five other guests — but as you mentioned, if you're planning to split up, then you can get DAS for multiple people in a party if they qualify. In your case, it sounds like it'd be easiest to get DAS for you and your older child. If your younger tadpole will stick with you the entire time, they do not need DAS. For rides that you'd like to do together, each DAS holder will still need their own DAS return time. You can visit Guest Relations upon entering a park to inquire about the red "stroller as wheelchair" tags.

Kayla Says...

Hello! My partner and I are going to Disney World in January. He has both a manual wheelchair, and a powerchair. Due to the size of Disney we would much prefer to take his power wheelchair, but we aren't sure about what rides he will be able to do in it. The rides that say "must transfer from ECV to wheelchair" does that mean he can only be in a manual wheelchair, or can he be in his power chair?

Oct 3, 2023 at 8:35 a.m.

FrogBlog Says...

Hi Kayla!

For those rides, he would likely need to transfer from his power chair to a manual wheelchair, though the ride attendants can provide the transfer chair at or near the entrance of the attraction.

Henry Says...

We have to transfer our daughter from her wheelchair to rides. On our trip last December was told there is a “step” device for Navi River Ride. They brought it over and placed between the chair and the ride. Made the transfer much easier. Do you know of any other rides that offer this device?

May 24, 2023 at 8:55 a.m.

FrogBlog Says...

Hi Henry!

There are other rides that use specialized transfer devices, though the exact device may depend on the ride. For instance, Avatar Flight of Passage has a special wheelchair that can elevate guests onto the ride vehicle. Mad Tea Party has a teacup with an extra wide opening and a transfer bench. For more information, we'd suggest contacting Disability Services (407) 560-2547 or email [email protected].

I have a bad back from when I fell and can't stand for long periods so does that qualify me?

Sep 19, 2022 at 8:38 a.m.

FrogBlog Says...

Hi Liane!

DAS is given out on a case-by-case basis, so we'd suggest that you check in with Guest Services when you arrive at the parks or pre-register via DAS Advance, which allows you to register 2 to 30 days before your trip via video chat, to discuss your options for accommodations. For strictly mobility issues, they may suggest using a wheelchair, but again, it's a case-by-case basis.

My son is a quadriplegic, on a ventilator, but he is cognitive. His make a wish is to go to Disney World, so I'm wondering if there will be rides he can do at all. He wants to so badly and I hate the disappointment in his eyes when he can't. So that's my question is there actual rides a wheelchair can go on?

Hi Stephanie!

We have our full list of disability access for Disney World attractions laid out in this post. While most of the attractions designated as "may remain in wheelchair/ECV" are shows, character greetings and parades, there are a few rides including Jungle Cruise, Journey into Imagination with Figment and Remy's Ratatouille Adventure.

Hoppy planning!

Hi Katie!

We'd encourage you to look into DAS to see if that's an option that may work for you :) These passes are assigned on a case-by-case basis, but you can now pre-register to speak with someone about DAS up to 30 days before you arrive. Hop here for more information (and to register!).

Hoppy planning!

The DAS pre register link just goes through to the home page. There doesn’t appear to be any way to pre register

Hi Celia!

You can find the pre-registration info here on Disney's website. Scroll down to the "Ready to Chat with a Cast Member?" section, accept the Terms & Conditions, and a "Request Live Video Chat" button should appear under "Other Important Things to Note."

Sally Weber Says...

What exactly does it mean when a ride says that you must transfer from an ECV to a wheelchair? Do they then stay in the wheelchair on the ride since some specify "then transfer from wheelchair to ride"? What about people who are already in wheelchairs and not an ECV? Power wheelchair? I can't find that information anywhere.

Cathleen Reed Says...

Some lines are too small for an an ECV but a manual chair fits. You just need to transfer once to the ride vehicle. You can take the chair right up to it. The CMs will take it and bring it back to you after you ride. They are really good that way.

I also have a heat and light sensitivity.

Is there something Disney can do to help make my trip less painful and more enjoyable?

Hi Mary,

Yes, you would need to see about accommodations when you arrive. This post will give you more information about the Disney Access Service.

My husband has CML. He also has a stent which makes him have to use the bathroom alot so, standing in line for a long period of time is impossible for him. He also just started new chemo medication that makes hime light sensitive. Do you think that he will qualify for the pass?

they are very understanding and generous when getting a DAS pass. They hardly ask me any questions at all and gave me one. I have MS and I never had to even explain anything.

Hi Andrea,

It's possible! We don't know for certain because Disney grants a DAS card on a case-by-case basis. We'd recommend either calling ahead at (407) 560-2547 or checking with Guest Relations as soon as you arrive to see what your best options are.

Coming in March . 93 years old .will use wheelchair while there . Know I can rent one which is great. Will be with family . Do I need a card?

Hi Ama!

What a fun trip! If you are OK to wait in line, and a wheelchair is all you'll need to get around otherwise, then you won't need a DAS card. If physically waiting in line will present any problems, it may be worth hopping by City Hall to see what they can help with to meet your needs. Have a fantastic time!

Denise McMahan Says...

We plan on going to Disneyworld with our family in June, my son is on the spectrum, and my husband is bipolar and also has severe anxiety when stuck in large crowds. Would I need a DAS for both of them or just one? And since my son and husband would probably not ride many rides would there be a way they could come up in line with us and wait till we get off the ride as to not be sitting in the park waiting on us and potentially get lost? I'm afraid if he was with our son, our son has a tendency to run, and my husband is likely to have a panic attack if too many people are around him while he is stuck waiting for us. It will be mine and my sons first time to Disneyworld and our first time together as a married couple. I want him to get them most out of the trip and enjoy himself, but I don't want him to feel like he is going to be stuck watching our son while we're out riding rides either.

Hi Denise!

Usually, when a family has more than one child with special needs that would require the DAS pass, we recommend tailoring the pass to meet the needs of the more significantly impaired child. Since the DAS pass covers your party of up to 6 people, siblings and other young family members are covered by the same pass anyway. Your circumstance is different; an adult can have very different needs and require different accommodations than a child. It may be best to have a DAS for your little one, with you as caregiver, and then a second DAS for your husband, who can navigate the parks independently. This would cover both needs and allow you to enjoy the park fully, even if you do so in different areas. Thankfully, the cast members working at Guest Services in all Disney locations have flexibility and can help you determine the best model for your family. Rest assured that when you tell the team about your needs, they’ll be able to accommodate you – and get ready to enjoy a truly frogtastic trip!

Hoppy planning!

Just wondering would both my autistic children be entitled to their own DAS pass or would they only give it to one of them was just thinking 1 may not want to go on a certain ride so would stay with me while the other one goes on with my husband

Hi Tracy!

DAS could be assigned to both tadpoles. Disney handles these on a case-by-case basis, so we'd suggest hopping to Guest Relations as soon as you enter the park to see what options are available for your family.

Is the DAS in effect for Millenial Falcon? I have what may be considered an 'invisible disability,' but it is physical/mobility and not behavioral. (Charcot foot). At the beginning of the day I look like I can walk for miles. After about 20 minutes on my feet, they go numb and balance is a challenge. Pain increases throughout the day. Thank you for any info!

Hi Donna!

Your tadpole is who these passes were designed for! Disney issues the DAS pass on a case-by-case basis, so we'd recommend stopping by City Hall/Guest Relations upon arrival. You are not required to bring any sort of medical paperwork, but it may not hurt to bring it along if you're comfortable.

Hi Rosie,

We'd highly recommend calling Disability Services ahead of your trip at (407) 560-2547, or visiting Guest Relations upon entering the park. Disney works with individuals in order to accommodate specific requests. As for getting a DAS card, they assign the pass on a case-by-case basis.

Would this come under the DAS?

Disney works with guests individually in order to accommodate their specific requests, and provides assistance for a variety of needs and disabilities. They take things on a case-by-case basis.

Cherie Baird Says...

I have pulmonary fibrosis. Besides being in a wheelchair, I will also be on a portable oxygen concentrator. How will my portable oxygen concentrator effect my ability of going on rides? What will I not be able to ride? Will my children and grandchildren still be able to ride if I am not allowed on?

Dec 31, 2018 at 6:58 a.m.

FrogBlog Says...

Hi Cherie,

While you can bring portable oxygen with you in the parks, you will not be able to bring it on all rides (although it sounds like you will be able to on many). Unfortunately, this is not listed in the ride accessibility information. Whether your grandchildren can ride will depend on their ages. To ride a alone, a child will need to be age 7 and meet the height requirements.

If your mother will be using a wheelchair or motor scooter, you don’t need a pass. You’ll just go to the attractions and the Cast Members will direct you to the right entrance/loading area!
