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. |
Hi Pam!
No, you have to get the GAC at any of the Guest Services centers in the park or at Downtown Disney. Don't worry, it only takes a few minutes, and your MD's note will also help speed it up.
As for the Dining Plan- as far as I know, no, the GAC will NOT work for that. You may order from the children's menu (although I am not sure how that works either with the Dining Plan, but I am sure that the GAC is not going to be the answer here). Try posting that part of your question in the Feasting and Snacking Forum or even the one for the Travel Agents as they might know a way to assure that you can share meals (Which I know you can do without the Dining Plan). Also, just for some more information about other guests who have had the surgery and traveled to WDW, utilise the "search" feature on the board,as there are LOTS of questions,answers and information about that archived.
Have a wonderful trip!
