    Hello, I may need surgery on my knee and ankle soon and I was wondering if there was anyway I could get a handicap pass for it during my stay as I am not able to stand in lines or in the heat (due to not being able to sweat). What does the pass give me?

    Guests needing special assistance are more than welcome to visit Guest Services and talk to a Cast Member about the Guest Assistance Card.  You'll need to be prepared to provide details about your limitations so that the Cast Member can best accommodate your needs.  This card will not get you to the front of the line; what it can do is provide you with an alternate place to wait in line, depending upon your needs.  Considering you may need surgery, I would strongly advise you to consider a wheelchair during your trip.  The amount of standing in queues is minimal compared to the extensive walking you're likely to do during your park touring.  A wheelchair would definitely lessen the burden on your injuries and help to ensure you the most magical trip possible.  Good luck!

Meet the Panelist: Darcie, Alabama

Given your inclination to plan a magical trip, I can already tell we have a lot in common. I'm Darcie, and my friends would be the first to tell you that Disney trip planning (especially dining!) is my love language. Of course, the vacations my family enjoys today look much different than they did when our kids were little, but while some of our favorite activities have evolved, Disney destinations still top our travel wish lists. Let's work together to plan a downright dreamy vacation for your family! Learn More About Darcie
