    If the DAS is approved for the 7-year-old autistic daughter, can the other three party members go with her?

    Howdy Joselin!

    Welcome to PlanDisney. There is nothing more exciting than planning a vacation to Walt Disney World. Being able to utilize access services for those who qualify can certainly help reduce stress while visiting. Let’s help you get all the information you need to enjoy your time.

    Yes, your daughter, who has been granted the Disability Access Service, along with up to 3 additional members of your party, will be able to join her. In my experience, the cast member conducting your meeting should ask you if you would like to designate the 3 members from your Family & Friends List. If for some reason they didn’t, you can either contact Guest Services prior to arrival or visit any one of the Guest Services locations at the park, and they will be able to assist you. 

    You will be able to access the Disability Access Service feature in the My Disney Experience app once your daughter, who has been granted access, along with her party, has entered the park. After entering a park, open the My Disney Experience mobile app and log in to your account. Tap on the menu ( ≡ ) at the bottom of the screen. Then, tap the DAS button to select the attraction to make your return time. The tool can also be accessed from attraction detail screens. If you require additional assistance, you can also obtain return times directly from a cast member at any Guest Relations or Guest Experience Team location (look for the giant blue umbrella).

    While you’re in a DAS virtual wait, you can enjoy many other experiences throughout Walt Disney World Resort, such as other rides, shows, concerts, parades, and character greetings. You can also rest in a break area, grab something to eat, or go shopping.

    Joselin, I hope this information helps with your vacation planning and that you and your family have a magical time visiting The Most Magical Place on Earth. Please stop back by planDisney if you have any further questions, and one of the panelists will be happy to assist you.

    See ya real soon,
    Robert
