Hey there, Rosemary!
I'm absolutely delighted to welcome you to planDisney, and appreciate you for stopping by with your question. It sounds like you're getting ready for an adventure at the Most Magical Place on Earth, and that's always such an exciting time. One of my favorite parts of any Disney vacation is the
planning stage…imagining which attractions you'll experience, deciding where to enjoy your meals, and dreaming about all the magical moments waiting around the corner. The anticipation is part of the fun, and I'm so excited for you as you prepare for your upcoming visit!
Minnie Vans are a fun and convenient way to travel around Walt Disney World Resort, and I completely understand wanting to include this unique experience in your vacation plans. I'm happy to share that wheelchair-accessible Minnie Vans are available for Guests who need them.
To request one during your visit, simply open the Lyft app, enter your destination, and confirm your pickup location. Then select "Access. Minnie Van." If the option doesn't appear right away, scroll through the available vehicle types until you see it.
Accessible Minnie Vans can accommodate up to seven Guests total. They offer seating for five passengers, including one complimentary car seat that can be used by one of those passengers, and have space for up to two mobility devices. Guests may also remain in their mobility devices for the duration of the ride, making this a comfortable and convenient transportation option throughout the resort.
I'd also encourage you to visit the
Services for Guests with Mobility Needs page on the official Walt Disney World website. It's an excellent planning resource filled with helpful information about accessibility services, transportation options, attraction access, and other accommodations that can help you prepare for a smooth and enjoyable vacation.
Rosemary, I hope this helps as you continue planning your trip. If any other questions come up, you’re always welcome as can be here at planDisney!
Magical Wishes,
Kami
