Hey there, Kelsey!
I'm so happy to welcome you to planDisney! It looks like you'll be kicking off your
summer with a visit to Walt Disney World next week…how exciting! With so much magic, fun, and family time ahead, I'm sure you're looking forward to making unforgettable memories together.
It's great to hear that your
Disability Access Service (DAS) is already in place for your upcoming visit. Having those accommodations arranged ahead of time can provide added peace of mind, allowing you to focus on enjoying all the special moments with your family during your vacation.
In most cases, a DAS party can include the guest who is registered for the accommodation plus up to three additional guests, for a total of four people. Children under the age of 3 are considered Mickey Mouse's special guests and do not require a theme park ticket. Because they do not need a ticket, they are not required to be linked to your DAS party and can still accompany your group on attractions.
It's also important to make sure that everyone who will be part of your DAS party is linked in your
My Disney Experience account. This is typically completed during your video chat with a Cast Member when your DAS registration is finalized. If you're unsure whether everyone was properly linked, you can contact a Cast Member again to verify that everything is set up correctly.
Should you encounter any technical issues with DAS during your visit, I recommend stopping by a
Guest Experience Team location. You'll find Cast Members under the blue umbrellas throughout each theme park, and they'll be happy to assist you.
Kelsey, you'll be visiting right in the middle of
Cool KIDS’ SUMMER, and your little ones are at the perfect ages to enjoy all the extra fun! Be sure to pick up a Cool KIDS’ SUMMER guide when you enter each theme park to discover special activities and entertainment created just for younger guests. Some highlights include
Bluey's Wild World at Conservation Station in Animal Kingdom and
Jessie's Roundup: A Rip-Roarin' Revue! in Magic Kingdom. Over at Hollywood Studios, the brand-new
Disney Jr. Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Live! has recently debuted and is already delighting young Disney fans with plenty of music, dancing, and favorite characters.
I hope you and your family have the very best trip, Kelsey, filled with unforgettable memories and plenty of Disney fun. Thank you so much for stopping by planDisney.
Magic Awaits,
Kami
