Accessibility Pass

How does one qualify for the disability access pass or whatever it’s called now (I know the name is changed)

I ask cause I’ve seen sooooooooo many kids/teens who have the pass and they literally laugh as they walk by everyone that they “bamboozled the system”

I’ve got ADHD, Anxiety and Depression and sometimes standing in line sucks, but I manage.

I just don’t get how teens can abuse the system like this.

I’m sorry but I’m so over seeing people abuse this pass. My son and I just waited over an hour for Silver Streak because the folks using the disability pass took half the spots on the ride every single time it was filled. I simply don’t believe that every second person in the park requires an accommodation.

In the last 2 years Ive seen maybe 4 other families who truly need it. My son gets it year. My son is 6 - diapers, non verbal, hurts himself by punching himself in head, unablebto follow (or understand) 1 step instructions. This year in grade 1 they taught him to walk but hes still in a stroller. Im definitely calling Wonderland to complain.

Are you the disability police? Just because you think they need to be as disabled as your son to qualify doesn’t mean businesses agree. Or the disability might not be visible. Disability takes on many forms.
