Hey Howdy Hey, Monica!
How exciting that you and your Prince Charming are planning to spend quality time together at The Happiest Place On Earth! At such a magical place, I'm sure you'll both make wonderful memories that will last a lifetime. I’m so glad you brought your question here to us at planDisney. It's natural to want to make the most of your trip and enjoy all the attractions. As someone who loves visiting amusement parks around the world, I can definitely relate to your question since I have family members who have also faced body size restrictions that have made it challenging for us to fully enjoy all of the rides. However, one thing that always makes me feel at home at the Disney Parks is that I know
everyone is welcome and able to enjoy the magic. Remember Monica,
the Super Bowl champions celebrated their victory at Disneyland this year, which goes to show that the Disneyland Resort is capable of accommodating guests of all shapes and sizes!
Before leaving the parks today, I saw your question and decided to stop by Guest Relations to get some answers. A friendly cast member informed me that the Silly Symphony Swings may not be suitable for larger guests since it is a single-seated attraction, but apart from that, the standard safety restraint belts used throughout the resort are able to accommodate up to 600 pounds. Some of the rides that use these safety restraints include
Luigi's Rollickin' Roadsters and
Guardians of the Galaxy - Mission: BREAKOUT! , among many.
From what I gathered, the only ride that might cause a slight delay is
Space Mountain, since your husband may have to wait for a specific vehicle to ensure safe weight distribution.
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is another great option because it can accommodate larger guests, although not everyone in your party may be able to ride together at once. Overall, it sounds like there are plenty of attractions that can be enjoyed by guests of all shapes and sizes, and you and your husband should have a fantastic time on your visit!
That being said, the Disneyland Resort is committed to making their theme parks as inclusive as possible for all guests. But if you're still worried about accessibility, have you heard about the
Disability Access Service (DAS)? The DAS is intended for people who have difficulty waiting in a regular queue, and no medical documentation is required. I see that you are planning your visit for next week, Monica. Now is a great time to pre-register for the DAS, which involves a brief 10-minute live video chat with a Cast Member who will walk you through the process and sprinkle any further pixie dust on needs your family may have before you adventure begins.
I hope I’ve encouraged you not to worry too much and to focus on having a great time at Disneyland with your One True Love, Monica. There's no reason why your husband shouldn't be able to enjoy all the rides and attractions just as much as he did on your last visit. If you think of any more questions, I hope you feel free to
message me again. I’m here to help!
You've got a friend in me,
Danielle
