Hi Cassidy, and welcome to planDisney! I see your trip is coming up soon, and I'd be happy to connect you with the resources and information you need to plan your visit with your child.
To register for
Disability Access Service (DAS), there are a few steps you will need to take. First, you must request a video chat with a Cast Member to determine eligibility. You are already in your eligibility window, which begins as soon as 60 days before your visit, so you can request this video chat when it is convenient for you. Cast Members are available from 7AM until 8PM ET, and your child must be present during this call. You'll have a conversation with the Cast Member and they will discuss recommended services with you. If DAS is granted, you will continue on in the registration process, which includes taking a photo of the DAS eligible guest and establishing the travel party. The party includes the DAS eligible guest and up to 3 additional guests for a total of 4 people. DAS is valid for the length of your ticket or one year, and you will need to re-register once your eligibility window has elapsed.
Walt Disney World Resort offers a wide variety of services for
guests who are neurodivergent, and there are many fantastic guides and resources on the Disney World website. I recommend looking at the
Sensory Experience Guide and the
Accessibility Planning Guide which may help you map out your visit and know what to expect. There are also planning tools that I recommend to all guests, like utilizing the
My Disney Experience app which has park maps, a way to mobile order food, attraction wait times, and can serve as your entry method into the parks.
I hope you find this information helpful as you explore DAS eligibility and plan for your time in the parks. You can also
email a Cast Member in Disability Services with any questions you have about your upcoming vacation. Please let us know if there are any other questions we can answer for you here at planDisney! I hope you have the best trip ever.
Stay magical,
Scott
