Wheel chairs
Hi all. We will be making our first visit to Disney in Orlando in June this year. I find myself in a position, where I will need a wheel chair, as I have a back complaint, this means, amongst other things, that I can't stand for long periods. So I have 2 questions
1) do I have to book a wheelchair, so it's there for me when I arrive. Or are there enough, that you can just turn up and get one? 2) do I need any letters or anything from my doctor, to prove I need one? Thank you in advance for your reply's x |

No letters needed, if you need one everyday it may be cheaper to hire one for the length of your stay, otherwise its $12 a day in the parks, Disney do it for $10 a day if you require multiple days,

Jeanette - if you want to use it outside the parks you need to hire from an off-site company- Disney ones can only be used in the park you hire it in!

Hi,
As others have said if you need wheelchair each day it’s best to book offsite. I’ve used Applescooters 3 times now. They deliver/collect certain hotels. I think it’s about $50 for 3 days and then additional days @ $5 a day.
