    We'll be traveling with my niece who is in a power wheelchair. She can not be transfered out of that chair. What attractions and rides are available for her. All of the Disney lists are somewhat vague as to accessability of power chairs.

    Hi Mary,

    The best option I could find for you is the following link which gives all kinds of great "Information for guests with mobility issues" at WDW.  If you scroll down to the heading "Mainstream Queues" you will see all of the different attractions in each of the Theme Parks that allow entry with an ECV (as well as wheelchairs).  The Guidebook for Guests with Disabilities (provides a detailed overview of services and facilities available for Guests with disabilities and is available at Guest Relations locations within all four Theme Parks as well as Guest Services locations at the WDW Resorts) and Park Guidemaps use symbols to indicate boarding procedures for each attraction. In addition, Guests should contact a host or hostess at each attraction before entering.  Given the fact that your niece cannot transfer out of her ECV, you may still be limited to select attractions based on the previous link that I provided and your best bet would be to ask a cast member at Guest Relations where you may be able to get a more definitive answer with perhaps a list of attractions that would be suitable for her.  I hope this helps and I hope you give them a call at (407) 824-4321 to get the answers that you are seeking.

    Best wishes,
    Brigitta
