Are all rides eligible for DAS?

Disney World's DAS system works on all rides at the theme parks including those without a Lightning Lane and the Individual Lightning Lane attractions. For attractions that do not have Lightning Lane, just simply ask a cast member and they will typically direct you to enter through the exit of an attraction.



No, not every attraction or experience at Disney Parks is eligible for the Disability Access Service (DAS). DAS is specifically designed for attractions that have a standard "standby" queue where a guest, due to a developmental disability such as autism or similar, is unable to wait for an extended period. Most major rides and shows that utilize a physical line are included; however, "walk-through" exhibits, character meet-and-greets with no formal line, and certain "streetmosphere" shows do not utilize DAS. Furthermore, in 2026, DAS does not grant access to Virtual Queues (like those for Tiana's Bayou Adventure or TRON Lightcycle / Run) unless the guest has already secured a boarding group through the standard process. Once a boarding group is called, the DAS user can then request a return time to bypass the physical portion of the queue. It is also important to note that specialized "extra-cost" experiences like the Savi’s Workshop droid building or certain high-demand ticketed events may have their own separate accessibility protocols rather than using the standard DAS return time system.
