Guests can speak with a Walt Disney World representative via a live video call to determine which amenities are appropriate to support their visit to the theme parks, including DAS. You can schedule this call starting 60 days prior to your park visit.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are unable (or unwilling) to make a request prior to your trip, you have the option of going to Walt Disney World on the day of your visit to check in with Guest Relations at the park to be visited. On the spot - also through a live video call - the request can then be made. Of course, this is subject to the availability of a representative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to apply before your trip begins, you can only do so through Walt Disney World's U.S. website. This website can only be accessed if you are present in the United States of America, or if you are using a VPN (Virtual Private Network). A VPN creates a secure connection between your computer, tablet or mobile and a remote website. By choosing a server in a specific country, it appears as if you are there, allowing you to access content (such as this website) that is only available in that country.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you have activated this VPN connection, you can use <a href=\"https:\/\/disneyworld.disney.go.com\/guest-services\/disability-access-service\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/disneyworld.disney.go.com\/guest-services\/disability-access-service\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">this<\/a> page make the request. On this page you will also find the full explanation for using this service. Please note that this information is only available in the English language.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For guests who only have a mobility problem, this request is not possible because the queues of the attractions are also accessible to these guests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" data-id=\"11543\" src=\"https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Mickey-Minnie-Parade-DisneyWorld-1024x682.jpeg\" alt=\"Mickey and Minnie during the parade at Magic Kingdom, Walt Disney World\" class=\"wp-image-11543\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Mickey-Minnie-Parade-DisneyWorld-1024x682.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Mickey-Minnie-Parade-DisneyWorld-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Mickey-Minnie-Parade-DisneyWorld-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Mickey-Minnie-Parade-DisneyWorld-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Mickey-Minnie-Parade-DisneyWorld.jpeg 1850w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Parade with Mickey &amp; Minnie<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"10838\" src=\"https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/34733319-4212-4f84-a992-0b3f5ec9c1ed-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Disney Dining Plan - Walt Disney World Magic Kingdom\" class=\"wp-image-10838\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/34733319-4212-4f84-a992-0b3f5ec9c1ed-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/34733319-4212-4f84-a992-0b3f5ec9c1ed-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/34733319-4212-4f84-a992-0b3f5ec9c1ed-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/34733319-4212-4f84-a992-0b3f5ec9c1ed-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/34733319-4212-4f84-a992-0b3f5ec9c1ed-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/34733319-4212-4f84-a992-0b3f5ec9c1ed-scaled.jpg 1707w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Magic Kingdom<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"2727\" src=\"https:\/\/eadn-wc02-14177151.nxedge.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/brian-mcgowan-DqvbCtg2UJ8-unsplash-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Disney&#039;s Animal Kingdom Tree of Life\" class=\"wp-image-2727\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Animal Kingdom<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"walt-disney-world-1\">UNIVERSAL ORLANDO RESORT<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.universalorlando.com\/web\/en\/us\/plan-your-visit\/accessibility-information\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.universalorlando.com\/web\/en\/us\/plan-your-visit\/accessibility-information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Universal Orlando Resort <\/a>like Walt Disney World, has an extensive program to make its parks and resorts accessible to the widest possible audience.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.universalorlando.com\/web\/en\/us\/plan-your-visit\/accessibility-information\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.universalorlando.com\/web\/en\/us\/plan-your-visit\/accessibility-information\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Hie<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.universalorlando.com\/web\/en\/us\/plan-your-visit\/accessibility-information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">r<\/a> you will find all the information given by Universal itself.
