DLP DAS equivalent

Just a post to refresh any information or questions people may have about the new system. We picked up a DAS for DS 12 and 4 companions. This covers the rides only; although some may require return times (pirates, autopia) when busy, this appears totally random, (random wait times buzz every 15 mins they take a disability party similar experience with tower of terror, similar wait times on big thunder mountain to main queue, and straight on star tours, carpets, ratatouille, rock n roller coaster) but I’ve been told the return times are due to the number of autistic / special needs on a ride at a time, unfortunately this also means an adult must ride with the autistic person so my DS 8 was left to fend for himself on a lot of rides. (Not much space for me and DS 12 on orbitron.) this is until he is 18. I did send them on the normal queue one time on autopia and they wouldn’t let DS 8 drive despite making him drive the previous 4 times.

Parades you can have up to 2 companions so wife and baby were in the non fenced area, if you get there early enough you can stand either side of the dividing rope and it worked really well.
For the new Year parade the entire disability area was full when we arrived and they said this is the first time it has happened so plan appropriately (we never can).

New year fireworks were great they let us all stand together, not sure this was right but not going to argue. A little fun when they threw a family out in front if us who had been there since before they fenced off the disability area!

Used DAS to bypass wristband queue for New Year’s Eve party too!
