Guest Assistance Cards for Strollers

If you’re traveling to Walt Disney World and your child has special needs, look into obtaining a Guest Assistance Card (GAC).

A GAC is available to children and adults with special needs and allows them to wait in a separate holding area apart from the regular queues at most attractions. A GAC can also be issued to children who have autism, ADHD or anxiety or even a cast on their foot.

 

 

Where can you get a GAC?

You can obtain a GAC at Guest Relations in all parks. You will not need a doctor’s letter to show, but many people like to bring one to make the process of obtaining a GAC easier. You will have to explain to the castmembers what the special need is and what kind of assistance is needed.

 

How long is a GAC valid?

A GAC is valid for the entire length of your trip, so make sure to obtain the card on the first day of your trip. You won’t have to get a new card at each park. Guest Relations will give you a card, but for children that are in a stroller, they will also tie a band around the stroller to let castmembers easily see you need special access.

 

What all will a GAC allow you to do?

A GAC will allow your child to stay in their stroller and enter through the wheelchair accessible queue. They will be able to stay in their stroller until it’s time to board the ride. If your child has autism, ADHD or anxiety, a GAC will allow your child an alternative place to wait in line with less crowds. Up to 5 members are allowed to be with your child and enter through the queue.

 

 

A GAC is a great option for your next Walt Disney World trip if your child needs to stay in their stroller! Have you ever used a GAC?
