Wonder how the pre register video will work when obtaining one 30 days before ?

Will it be an American cm ? ( time difference ) ? , and do you book a slot so you know when it’s happening ?

My partner uses DAS for his health condition, and whilst the Fastpass changes are disappointing, the DAS changes seem much better. Does anyone think the changes will increase abuse of the system? I am concerned it might, and then its the people that really need it that will suffer

I wish they actually could request evidence, a Dr letter or something, to limit abuse of the system.

Also, when we were there in 2019 we had the DAS but only used it as a last resort, we utilised Fastpass where possible. Now I imagine people utilising the DAS will increase quite a bit as there is no other (free) way to reduce queue times on some rides (I appreciate some will have virtual queues)

I'm sure a responsible adult/parent/carer will be able to take the call.

In the information pasted in post number 2 of this thread it says 2 slots per day where available. It also says you can't book any on the day.

It's possibly a one or the other choice. Book 2 a day ahead of time or choose the self service in the app when you are there? It's not very clear.

It's two per day for every day you have a valid ticket and park reservation I think.

I have two children with autism both prefer different rides and have different needs. We often end up with me and daughter doing something and son and husband. Can I get DAS for each child. No way either will speak on zoom chat. My sons a selective mute! I can provide letters from their paed consultant. Also if we don’t use the pre paid genie thing does that mean it’s just two das rides a day? There’s zero chance of them tolerating a queue that’s longer than 15/20 minutes. If we use genie thing every day for our 21 day ticket and extra for the ‘good’ rides that I know my son will be desperate to ride it will cost thousands more- that we don’t have.
It’s really annoyed me that Disney are putting yet another additional unexpected cost on our holiday. No fast pass, no dining, no magic express. I’m so disappointed in them. My husband is Seriously contemplating losing our deposit and pulling out.
