When I did mine Friday they told me mine was good for 30 from the first park day of my trip. So it was good till the second week of June.

Since we might start seeing some real reports Saturday, I hope Disney will also fully update the website then with all the details.

Hearing the thing about reading off of a paper etc hits me personally as an autistic person. I have to write down my thoughts ahead of time to help me through the process as otherwise it’s like an inquisition to get me to coherently verbally explain anything. The anxiety of the situation of...

Oh wow, I’m so sorry. I can feel your frustration in your telling of it! Yay for Mom! I’ve also been yelled at by CM before for taking too long or needing assistance or asking another question. It really sticks in my brain and unfortunately I can recall those instances like a movie in my brain...

Just seeing this. I am also autistic and I have had to write down my issues with being able to stand in line. I just tell them I have wrote some things down as I have problems with verbal communication. I used this on my video chat this past Friday and it went good. Maybe also write things down...

I think this is very reasonable to expect and I’m not sure what you yourself could have done beyond what you had expressed. Looking back you maybe could have stressed you would need to help and be pushed back down the ramp by a cast member at the time you were getting ready to ride. But I agree...

Curious, what brand are they?

I also got the form. It had four days. I could have asked for more but I’d didn’t. Truthfully we rarely use them as the times we get are so random and don’t work for us a lot. I almost didn’t do them this time but I’d already been waiting so long.

They took my picture after the conversation. I had to take off my headphones

I did mine yesterday for my dates in May before the change over and our trip ends a few days before the changes. My DAS is good till June 10.

I was within my 30 days today so I did the video chat for DAS. The wait from start to finishing everything was 2 1/2 hours. The focus was still on why you cannot wait in line like I had answered before. There were more specific questions and I did feel like they were carefully considering my...

I’m going the week before this is implemented. I’ll be at 30 days tomorrow. I might not do the chat/video call tomorrow as it seems that the site might be getting a lot of traffic just from questions. Also, it’s normally taken me hours so I need to dedicate a day to the laptop sitting by me. So...

I’m autistic. I don’t fly much by choice as airplanes are total heck for me. But I had to last year. Airports I have to have someone with me and I use the TSA cares to have assistance and help through the security and to my gate. I avoid large crowds, have grocery pickup or delivery to avoid the...

I think this one is a good summary so far. https://touringplans.com/blog/das-changes-disney-parks-in-united-states/

I’ve said it before but why announce this like this and cause all this stress and chaos. They should have it all worked out, all the FAQ on the site, and announced how this will all work. It’s ridiculous this large of a company announces something as important as disability accommodation changes...

Don’t know. I will say there are a lot of us autistic kids who have now aged into autistic adults and from personal experience the world doesn’t really know what to do with us much less Disney. Services for autistic adults are rare and hard to get. So I guess to answer your question, I hope not...

In the TikTok link I posted last night, https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTLU1bQcv/ Amy from Touringplans visited MK and talked to guest services about the changes. Some of the answers she received were interesting. They said they were serious about the developmental disabilities requirement. Another...

Agree. I’m betting these testers were not disabled DAS users. Sure, if you use DAS as an able person with no issues, I’m sure it would be great and an advantage. Disabled DAS users are not using it this way. This is a horrible comparison and not even remotely a good real world test if they...

Could we please stop saying severe autism or high functioning autism. These are highly offensive to me and a lot of others as an autistic person. Officially there are levels of autism support needs 1-3. We all have autism and our own struggles. If you do not yourself have autism (or any...
