Welcome back to planDisney, Craig! I'm so glad to be able to answer your question today. I'm sorry to hear about your daughter's recent injury, and I'm sending lots of well wishes for a smooth healing journey. I know how important it is to make sure she's comfortable and still be able to enjoy all the magic of a Walt Disney World vacation, especially with your visit coming up in August!
In situations like this, the recommended accommodation is to
rent a wheelchair, especially if she's experiencing pain or limited mobility over long periods of walking. Walt Disney World is a big place with lots of miles covered in a single day, so having a wheelchair will help her conserve energy and avoid additional discomfort while still being able to experience all the fun alongside your family.
The great news is that all queues are wheelchair accessible, so she'll be able to fully participate in the magic without worry. Whether you're navigating through the standby line or using
Lightning Lane, the Cast Members are wonderful about making sure that guests using mobility aids feel supported and included in every experience.
Wheelchair rentals are available right at the entrance of each theme park, and you can rent by the day or even for the full length of your stay. There are also third-party rental companies in the area if you'd like to have a wheelchair available at your
Resort Hotel or for
transportation between the parks and resorts.
Wishing you and your daughter a magical vacation filled with comfort, fun, and unforgettable memories! If you have any questions as your trip gets closer, we're always here to help.
