Disney Introduces Stricter Disability Access Controls, Enforces Lifetime Bans for Cheaters

Disney theme parks announce major updates to their Disability Access Service, including lifetime bans for those found cheating the system.

Disneyland and Walt Disney World to enforce lifetime bans for guests caught lying about disabilities to access line-skipping services.
New rules require guests to undergo a virtual video meeting to verify eligibility for the Disability Access Service (DAS).
Changes aim to preserve the integrity of services for guests with genuine needs, amid rising misuse of the system.
DAS now limited to guests with developmental disabilities such as autism, tightening previous broader criteria.
Implementation dates set for May 20 at Walt Disney World and June 18 at Disneyland.
