Didn't think I'd have to research a wheelchair for our upcoming DL trip but with my sons somewhat emergency appendectomy 7 days before our trip, I'm now trying to plan one more thing ;-. Thank you so much for this info. Great tips regarding parking and passes. We are going in June and I am debating back and forth if I should hire a something. I have a cane with a fold out seat as standing is very uncomfortable.
Walking can be painful, I have good days and bad. I think I need to get over it and just make my day there as comfortable as possible. You are so welcome - we are just hoppy to help! There is so much walking and standing when you visit the parks, so we agree that making your day as comfortable as possible is the best way to go : Have a magical trip!
How is wheelchair rental affected if you leave the park for an afternoon rest and then return a couple of hours later? Can you just park it somewhere and hope it is there when you return?
What if someone takes your Disney chair and you have nothing to return at the end of your day? Can you take your Disney wheelchair from one park to another on the same day? The wheelchair rental station is inside security and outside the parks in the esplanade.
You can definitely park hop with the wheelchair, and you can take it into Downtown Disney because Downtown Disney is inside the security checkpoint. But if you want to get your deposit back, you should return it to the rental location.
Inaccurate, at Disneyland Resort California. The rental booth is inside security but outside oth Disneyland and DCA. You are toadally right - this is our mistake and it looks like we may have answered with the Florida parks in mind! So sorry for the confusion. Like you mentioned, at Disneyland Resort, the wheelchair rental is inside security and outside the parks in the esplanade. You can definitely park hop with the wheelchair, and you can take it into Downtown Disney because Downtown Disney is inside security.
Is it possible to charge your scooter while on a ride? I have read that some scooters only have 10 miles of charge. If so we may need to have a charge in the mid day. We are not sure if there are outlets near the rides.
The Disneyland scooters have plenty of charge to make it through the parks, but if you bring your own, you will have to be on the lookout for outlets. There are some outside some restrooms, and they are often hidden in planter boxes. There is one at the Galactic Grill in Tomorrowland.
You might be able to charge while you eat! Thank you for posting this. We are doing Disneyland for the first time in late September. I need an ECV for mobility issues so I was happy to read that your friend had a pleasant experience.
I had a good experience in Disneyworld and was hoping it might be the same. I would suggest tying a scarf or something colorful to your chair to distinguish it from the crowd. I will be renting my ECV and having it delivered to my hotel.
Also, when you use theirs it is a mess to return in the evening. Thanks for the info! Any suggestions? Also are the parking areas the same as where people usually leave their strollers outside of the rides? Take the wheelchair to the ride and they can direct you on where to safely park it.
It may vary per ride, but many rides have somewhat secure areas to park the wheelchair and may offer you a return time so she may not have to stand and wait a long time. It is not likely that the chair would be stolen, but be sure to take any valuables with you. Hi,we're going to Disneyland and Ca Adventure in November. I am confinded ro a ECV and cannot stand or walk.
Are they hard to learn how to drive? I'm sure I could transfer if there is something on the chair to hold on to. We aren't quite sure of the answer here, but want to welcome the Frog Pond to chime in with their expertise! I had no issues with access to rides with my ECV. In fact, it was better than a fastpass in terms of waiting and riding the attraction. I didn't feel self concious about inconveniencing anyone, nor slowing down others. Where is the offsite vendor located where you rented your ECV and what was the cost?
Like your friend, my dad uses a walker for short distances, but has his own ECV for longer trips. I was disappointed with our last Disneyland trip, because of how difficult it was for my father to do so much in his ECV. Yes, the cast members were kind, but so many had no idea what to do to accommodate him or his chair.
The big issue was when his battery was dying. Well, we were wrong. Employees had no idea what to do with someone who brought their own ECV. If you rent there, and the battery dies, they bring a new battery or a whole knew scooter. No one had any idea where he could charge his ECV.
Finally a worker came in and tried to move his ECV to a better angle so as to not block the door as much, but finally Dad gave up and left. When workers had no clue what to do, I finally took it upon myself to ask around. By now, we were in Downtown disney for dinner, and no one had any idea where he should go, or what to do.
A couple of store out right refused to allow him to use their outlets. Eventually, I found the Rainforest cafe manager, who kindly let him plug into an outlet in a back corner, while we waited for our reservation. Again, still not long enough to finish out the night. So, he made it to Whispering Canyon, and charged just off the lobby, while others went to get the car. The check in clerk very kindly told security that the car had permission to come to the turn around, so that my dad would not have to go the parking lot.
That is exactly what I plan on doing! I have a second battery pack and I am going to bring it in with me. It would be really nice if they had the foresight to put an electrical outlet in the locker so that one could be recharging while you use the other.
Even without being able to recharge, that should give me 25 miles for the day. All rights reserved. Entertainment Inc. All Rights Reserved. Destination optional.
