Are there weight restrictions on disney world rides




















Just ask to sit in the seat behind the smaller guests. One other caution about "thrill" attractions where riders share the seat: make sure a smaller rider is on the "inside" of a spin. Ask the cast member whether the smaller rider especially if it's a child should be on the left or the right. This will prevent the smaller rider from becoming squished by the centrifugal force of the attraction. Example: Big Thunder Mountain. Sit on the edge of the seat and slide back into the seat rather than just sitting down, trying to fit between the arm rests.

You will be comfortable in all Disney theaters, but a bit more comfortable in the newer ones like "Mickey's Philharmagic. Armless or extra-wide chairs can be brought into that area for you if you find the regular seats to confining.

Again, the Cast Members at the attraction are your "go to" people. They are there to help you; don't hesitate to ask. Some guests have indicated a minimum of three to 11 or more miles a day.

Prior to your Disney vacation, try to walk every day to build up your strength. If walking is not an option for you, Disney rents battery-powered ECVs electric convenience vehicles and manual wheelchairs.

You can also rent from outside companies. If walking is going to be a big problem for you, don't hesitate to rent an ECV or wheelchair. You definitely will not be embarrassed using one since many, many Disney guests ride their way around The World. Each park has a few wide wheelchairs. If that's what you need, be sure to ask for one. Examples: Test Track, Space Mountain, Astro Orbiter On these attractions, you must step down into the vehicle and then lower yourself into the seat.

At the end of the ride, you must then raise yourself out of the seat and step up to get out of the vehicle and onto the unloading platform. One great strategy is, instead of trying to get out of the vehicle in one motion, first boost yourself to the back of the seat. Take a deep breath and from there it is much easier to step up onto the platform.

Also, don't hesitate to use the seat as a step when you get in and get out of the ride vehicle. Using this "step" strategy really makes entering and exiting the vehicle much easier. Turnstiles Although most of the turnstiles have been removed at Walt Disney World, you will still encounter a few of them in The Magic Kingdom. Take a look as you approach the attraction. The gate should be right there next to the regular turnstile entrance.

There is no reason not to request to use it. All Walt Disney World restaurants can provide you with a chair without arms. If you need one, just ask. Don't suffer through a meal squished into a chair that is too small when there is probably an armless chair as close as the next table. Rest Rooms Most At Large guests should be able to use a regular stall in the Walt Disney World rest rooms, but if you have any questions at all, just use the handicap stall.

All rest rooms have at least one. Asking for Help All Cast Members are there to help you. You should never have a problem when courteously asking for help or some sort of special accommodation. If the Cast Member can't help you, politely ask to speak with a supervisor.

The supervisor will either help you or direct you to a place or person where your needs can be met. Transportation All transportation options at Walt Disney World, buses, monorails, and watercrafts, can accommodate guests of all sizes with no problems. All of the comments that follow indicate one problem or another. We don't mean this to be negative or to scare you. There were just as many people who wrote us to say that they could ride everything without a problem.

For example those who carry their weight in the chest area may have a problem with the over the shoulder harness restraint systems found on some rides. A Disney representative at Services for Guests with Disabilities shared that rides with lap bars tend to be less of a problem for people of size then the other restraint systems.

Some ride boarding areas are on moving walkways, and some of these can be stopped or slowed. Some attractions have sample ride cars that you can test out. Some of these are in private locations that a cast member can take you to, and some are in full view of other guests.

A lap bar is usually a metal bar that you either pull down over your lap or it automatically comes down itself. There may be more than one guest in a shared seat, and bars will stop when they encounter the larger guest. Feel free to request that you either ride alone, either in front of or behind those in your party. For rides with lap bars that come down automatically, make sure to keep your legs down with your feet flat on the floor. The bar can hit your knees otherwise, and that can be painful!

On some attractions, it may be easier to do that prior to sitting down. You can also ask a cast member for help with this. We find that Cast Members are generally friendly and supportive. Cast members can provide seat belt extenders for some attractions with seat belts. Most theater seats will accommodate people of size; however there are some that are on the smaller side. In the theaters you should have no problems. On the rides, the seats are designed for a certain number of people.

Even if you and your party must to wait for the next ride vehicle to board, they should accommodate you. Some rides have seats that are designed for a single rider.

Some of these rides have sample seats, and if you have any doubt, make use of these to test things out before you ride.
