Can a GAC be applied for PRIOR to arrival or do you have to wait until you get to the park? My DD has Hereditary Spastic Paraparesis (thankfully the mild version) and while she is able to walk and enjoy everything that the parks have to offer, her legs do get fatigued from the long walks and even just standing around in line. I know her doctor would happily give her a note and explain that she will need to have some accomodations while waiting in long lines. Mainly, just allowing her to sit somewhere to rest her legs while we wait without losing her place in line. We will be utilizing the FastPass where and when we can, but now that I know about the GAC I will definitely ask for that too.

Also will the GAC work for dining accomodations? I had a Gastric Bypass and cannot eat a whole lot. My DD and I usually end up sharing a plate. When I called to make reservations for CRT I asked about sharing meals and how that would affect our DIning plan and i was told that we are not allowed to share meals on the DIning plan, so in our budgeting and planning, I am taking that into consideration, but hoping that once we get there then some accomodations might be made.
