Disney is revamping its policy for park visitors with disabilities, limiting how many people are eligible for the program that helps guests avoid lines because it says too many people are exploiting it.
Disney’s Disability Access Service program, or DAS, was launched in 2013, according to a Disney spokesperson.
The free program is intended for guests with a “developmental disability such as autism or similar” and who are unable to wait in line for an extended period of time, according to the policy posted on the company’s DAS websites.
The free program allows guests to obtain a return time for attractions at its Florida and California parks rather than wait in line.
Disney on Tuesday announced that starting May 20 at Disney World, and June 18 at Disneyland, the parks will limit the number of eligible family members to four. It had previously been six. The change will also address how often eligible guests can enroll in the program: It will now be every 120 days instead of 60, Disney said.
