I just want to assure those with IBS that you can indeed get a DAS pass. I got my pass this morning and have my ride reservations. It wasn't hard at all and took maybe a minute or two. I did wait for nearly a half hour to talk to someone, and I called about two minutes after seven, but the actual call was very short.

MORE DETAILS

If you do not arrive before 2 days before your park day you can always stop by guest relations at any of the theme parks to apply for DAS. You can have up to 6 guests join your DAS if you are approved. You will all be on one reservation for return times and cannot be inlcuded in mutliple DAS parties on the same day.

MORE DETAILS

The DAS pass will only show up on your My Disney Experience app for the day you have a park ticket and reservation and when you are actually in the park. If you go to the hamburger menu and scroll all the way down, you will see your DAS access pass.

If you focus on how your condition affects your mobility, you're less likely to be approved for a DAS Pass. You should also explain why a DAS Pass would help you and your family experience the attractions. You won't need to provide a medical diagnosis or even go into detail about your condition.
