How do I prove my disability at Disney World?

Cast Members will not ask for proof of a disability, but will inquire about the type of accommodations you are requesting because of your disability or condition. The person with the disability must be present to obtain the pass and will have their picture taken.

Disability Access Service for ride queues Another reason why Walt Disney World is a great wheelchair-accessible destination is because of their Disability Access Service (DAS). This service is for guests who cannot tolerate long lines and gives them the option to visit an attraction at a later time.

MORE DETAILS

DAS Advance selections must be made between 2 and 30 days prior to the park visit. If you're scheduling for multiple days, please note that all days must fall within the 2-to-30-day planning period.

MORE DETAILS

I highly recommend utilizing the DAS Advance process before your trip. Our trip will be at a crowded time in the parks, and not having to head to guest services is certainly a plus. The fact that the wait times in the virtual queue are lower makes it much easier on families to be able to plan for this process.

MORE DETAILS

DAS is intended for Guests who have difficulty tolerating extended waits in a conventional queue environment due to a disability. DAS doesn't provide immediate access to experiences, but rather allows Guests to request a return time for a specific experience that is comparable to the current standby wait.
