This was GREAT information. Explains how to sign up for DAS, rules and perks, what to do if we miss a return time, if Genie+ is worth it, and how to navigate with scooters. Puts me at ease.

[@ACoupleTravelers]

We are so glad!!! Thanks for watching!

[@parkstheodd]

I am an autistic adult and the Disney Parks are my special interest! I have not been since I was around 10-11 years old, and in planning Disney Trips with my friends, this process has given me the most anxiety out of everything because I don't like doing things without knowing what to expect first! This video is the first thing that has properly explained the process in a way that is easy for me to understand, so thank you so much!!!! :]

[@ACoupleTravelers]

I am so glad it was helpful for you… exactly why I made it!!

[@valariemonroe6618]

You and I are the same! I wasn't diagnosed until a couple years ago. My brother's autism was more noticeable so I was written off as "normal enough". But ever since I found out it's been life changing! I have a Disney hyperfixation with Disney too. It's basically my happy place. But some long lines with screaming kids makes me anxious and I have autistic melt downs. I wish I knew about he DAS Pass when I went 4 months ago.

[@user-vs3yj7rh4l]

Thank you SO much. I just got registered for DAS and I've never been to Disney so I was so confused about ILL, LL, GENIE +, and DAS and this was EXTREMELY helpful and made total sense. You are a Disney Angel! 🥰

Did the online pre-registration and it was pretty frustrating but the cast member was super helpful and made it worth the wait and getting kicked off a lot 😂

[@ACoupleTravelers]

Glad it was worth the wait! Better than wasting time in the park when you spent so much money to be there!!

[@prissymiss]

Thank you so much for this video! We just hit Disney for the first time this past Saturday and having all this education on the DAS pass really made the process so much smoother. I don't know how people navigate the pass without watching a tutorial like this. In fact, one cast member said to me, "It looks like someone did their homework!" Hah

Due to her disability it will be impossible for her to spend time in line. Thank you for explaining the process brilliantly. Roll on February.

So glad it was helpful! I believe if trying from outside the US you may need a VPN so something to look into (check the comment section on this video!)

[@charliedurham4248]

Super useful video! I (DAS holder) did use the bail out option on a ride after scanning in and my daughter still rode. So, I guess you don't have to technically ride, but go through the line.

[@ACoupleTravelers]

Good to know!!

[@bklynzfranchise]

Woke up Saturday and logged on at 7am . by 720 was on a video and got to pick my rides.

[@ACoupleTravelers]

Amazing!!!

[@vvvcfg]

Thanks so much. We signed on at 7:00 EST time and quickly were connected to a cast member. Got registered. But then when we were chatting to choose pre-selects, we weere told were under the wrong account. We were using my husband’s. But we had to use mine because the original trip package used my email, etc. so we had to start over. We were pretty quickly connected again to a cast member. Registered a second time, then everything went smoothly. We were able, despite the glitch, to get all our first choices for a holiday weekend. Pretty amazing. Cant thank you enough. But everyone out there, make sure you're using the right MDE account before you start.

[@ACoupleTravelers]

That’s a good tip! Thanks for sharing that experience! Just shaved a lot of people from making the same mistake! Thanks for watching!!

[@lydiaorcales3254]

I just did DAS under the new 2024 guidelines and was told during the interview we could only have 4 guests total, which was disappointing as we have three grandsons visiting. Hopefully, cast members at the ride entrances will let us all go in together.

[@ACoupleTravelers]

Yes this video is a little out of date now. They weren’t willing to make an exception? They used to, especially if it was more kids than adults

[@vlofvl]

Brilliant video, very clearly explained, Unfortunately we’ve just got back and out of the 3 of us 2 would have qualified for a DAS Pass but we never knew about it 😢😢😢 Wish I’d seen this video BEFORE we went

This is INCREDIBLY helpful and answered ALL my questions. We’re using DAS for the first time next week. Registration was fast and easy, but I didn’t completely understand how to use the one-at-a-time/day-of reservations. You explained it perfectly and your screenshots were EXACTLY what I needed to understand it. (I’m Autistic, so the visual with the verbal description was just what I needed.) Thank you, so much, for making this video! #pixiedusted

I just sent this video to my whole family who is going in November. The best description I've ever seen of this system!

[@ACoupleTravelers]

@@blessed1969 so glad it’s helpful!!

[@blessed1969]

Let me add this though..I called yesterday to do my preselections and was dismayed to find out you couldn't do your second park of the day ahead of time..I missed that in my research..and for 2 weeks out, nothing was available in the morning,;( so if you are preselecting..30 days out,when you get your DAS registration, is when you need to make your selections..any later and you may be screwed!. I bet lots have DAS now...wonder how lightning lanes will be..

[@christinacampbell5393]

I registered today and made preselects on video

[@ACoupleTravelers]

Oh interesting! Funny how quickly things change!

[@SharonA-ry9le]

We registered our son today and I asked about what was mentioned about reserving a ride once we are in the park that we already have as a pre-selection later in the day and the cast member that interviewed me said that you can definitely reserve a ride through DAS on the app that may be one of your pre-selects that happens to have a later return time. She said they are completely different buckets and you would just get to ride it multiple times. So if we have Big Thunder Mtn as a pre-selection at 4:00 in the afternoon - we can still reserve it on our app once we are in the park for that morning for example. So maybe I misunderstood when you mentioned your Soarin' example.

[@ACoupleTravelers]

Oh maybe that is new or it changed!? It wouldn’t let us book it! Or maybe we would have had to redeem it first?

[@kellielouise]

This video was very helpful! A couple questions for you.. 1. Should you register 30 days before your first park day? (Meaning, will the pass still be good for subsequent park days that are more than 30 days out? 2. We have 2 people who should qualify for DAS - I think I would like to do both. Should I apply for them in the same chat or do a different chat for each person?

[@ACoupleTravelers]

We did it 30 days from our first day park and could pre-register for our whole trip. I would recommend registering more than one person if you plan to do the same rides. It makes it more complicated to have to select for two groups…

[@jeffbostock5820]

At the 2:58 mark you say that the advance DAS selections that you make cannot be changed. You can do an online chat with a Cast Member if you need to make any changes and they can definitely change to whatever is showing available in their system. You can also go to Guest Services before the return time and they can also make changes to the DAS advance selections.

[@ACoupleTravelers]

Thanks for letting us know! I wonder if that just changed because we went told several times it couldn’t be changed, only deleted by a CM at the parks.

[@andrezatrentino135]

Awesome video! Do you have any tips about universal studios and island too?

[@ACoupleTravelers]

We only spent a few hours one morning so definitely didn’t get to experience it and have that many tips to share!

[@EmilyKukura]

This was such an informative video! Thank you so much. We are new to Disney and DAS and this explained everything I needed to know! My only questions is if the Advanced DAS return time window works the same as the in the park selections? For example do we have to go to our advanced booking at the exact return time or do we have until the end of day to go if we can’t get there at that exact time? Thanks again!

[@ACoupleTravelers]

For the advanced selections, it’s only the one hour window!

[@kelleykircher1597]

This was amazingly helpful! Thank you so much! One question: once you do the video chat to get approved, can that cast member set up your 2 preselection rides? It looked like you were in a chat to do that part.

[@ACoupleTravelers]

Once approved, they pass you off to another person in a chat!

[@Lisa_Ann]

We just did our online interview today!! Thanks for the info and tips! ❤

[@Lisa_Ann]

Question: what if the person registered for DAS is my son who doesn’t have a phone? Can I make DAS selections in the park from my phone?

[@ACoupleTravelers]

So glad it was helpful!

[@ACoupleTravelers]

@@Lisa_Ann I assume your son is under your My Disney Experience account? If so, yes! That’s how it was for us. The person needing DAS didn’t have their own account (was under their mom) so DAS showed up on her MDE but again, is linked to the person who has their photo taken. Hope that helps!

Hi! I unfortunately am not able to speculate on what may or not may not qualify you for DAS.

[@Dedpancreas]

I just registered for DAS yesterday and it was so easy! I felt much more prepared having watching your video. I waited less than 10 minutes to chat with a CM fortunately. One question I forgot to ask and hopefully you or someone else knows: can I select rides with DAS pass BEFORE my pre-selected ride times? Or must we “use” our pre-selections first?

[@ACoupleTravelers]

Yes! You begin one-at-a-time once you scan into the park for the day! The pre selections are just a bonus!

[@fatimachoual1108]

What does can't pre-select mean? I chatted with a CM and she selected the seven dwarfs mine train What if I want to add Space Mountain? Do I need to chat with them again or what I do? My first time going! Thank you

[@ACoupleTravelers]

@@fatimachoual1108 did you pre- select two rides per day? They should have allowed you to do that. Then, you are done with them and nothing else to do until you are in the parks and then you are selecting rides one at a time!

[@MartinBradbury]

We VPN’ed the DAs registration from the UK, took 20 mins in total for the video registration process. Today we booked our first 8 days of rides (2 per day) and it was complete within an hour with a good choice of ride times :)

It works on anything that has standby. But if a ride required you enter a virtual queue, you need to do that first (I.e. guardians)

[@jasmine3250]

@@ACoupleTravelers Thank you so much! 🫶🏼

[@rochinhaufc]

Hello. Both me and my son have ASD and I was thinking of getting DAS for both. At your video you said that's not necessarelly a good thing. I have somes questions about that: 1. In having two DAS users in my family group, will I have 4 advance ride bookings and 2 to book via app at the park? 2. He doesn't have his own account at My Disney Experience (he's only 3, so he doesn't even have an e-mail). If I go thru with it and register us both, will he need his own account? 3. At the park, will I be abble to use my account to book a ride just for him and his mom or will I need to keep changing accounts?

[@ACoupleTravelers]

If you both have one, you won’t be under each others. For example, you wouldn’t be a “guest” under him and vice verse. So it wouldn’t be a hack to get more pre-selections. So just do you, with him as a guest under you or vice versa. He doesn’t need his own account to have his own DAS, it would just link to his ticket!

[@ACoupleTravelers]

Yes, would be able to book for just him and his mom under your account. It’s about the ticket and you don’t need separate accounts if you do separate DAS requests if that helps!

[@disneyfunatic3179]

question for you regarding being in a line for a ride and needing to immediately find a restroom.....what are guests options with regard to this? I have heard that Rise Of The Resistance has this option but not sure where? Thanks

[@ACoupleTravelers]

Sorry, I only know of a bathroom in the Flight of Passage queue, but it’s not in the Lightning Lane queue which is where you’d be with DAS…

[@KWEENxKillUHxKAT]

Great video! It was very helpful for our upcoming trip. I know you said the person with the DAS pass has to ride, but what if at the last moment when we are about to get on the ride, they change their mind? My son has Autism and he changes his mind so much I am worried he will do this a lot and we will have done the whole DAS pass for nothing.

[@ACoupleTravelers]

So glad it was helpful! After all the checkpoints, I’m not sure the Cast Members will know that you have DAS, since it’s also the Genie+ line, so at that point it may not be an issue.

[@KWEENxKillUHxKAT]

That makes sense. One more thing, do you know if it works with the parent ride swap? I’m trying not to find out the hard way 😬 thank you

[@ACoupleTravelers]

@@KWEENxKillUHxKAT yes, as long as the ride offers rider swap! just let the cast Members know when you are entering the line and they will provide instructions!

[@user-vy6sc1od1n]

Thank you so much for this video. Questions: as soon as it's 30 days from my first park visit I can already do the pre-selection of all the parks (that will be on following days)? Also, we are not getting magic bands for our party, how to do the scans at each ride, through the app???

[@ACoupleTravelers]

Yes, correct! And you would use the app on your phone. So make sure you have portable chargers!

[@jaysuper8255]

Thank you for your time. Being our first visit, we are or were very overwhelmed. Signing up for DAS because of our disabled son and trying to figure out why our video chat person wanted us to pick our two preselected rides. But, we don’t know what day yet. We only have 3 days in the park with a 9 night stay at the fort Wilderness. Depending on the weather April 8-17. Once we know what day, how do we do the 2 preselected rides. Once we’re at the campground?

[@ACoupleTravelers]

You can only do pre-selections when you register. Otherwise, you don’t get them! So it would make more sense to pick park dates and reserve rides, and if weather is bad and you adjust, then you just lose the pre-selections…

[@CMB0212]

wow thank u so so helpful.. must ask.. where did u get those ears from my daughter and me would love a pair

[@ACoupleTravelers]

Thanks for watching! They are ears from Disney (they were on the ShopDisney website but not sure if still available!)

[@fuzzypoo2002]

If you have park hopper I am assuming you cannot select for your next park until you scan into it? I have used DAS many times but my coming trip will be my first hopper trip.

[@ACoupleTravelers]

Correct! Can only make pre-selections for your first park of the day and can’t select into any other parks until after you hop and scan in!

[@user-rs9vy8ni7m]

thanks for explaining all of this! Question in my disney experience app I do not see the DAS option does it show up after the person with DAS scans their ticket? All the pre selected rides are there

[@ACoupleTravelers]

Yes, we didn’t see it until the person with DAD scanned into the park. Thanks for watching!

I did my online registration for California Disneyland and it was hard with the online registration because the chat box kept getting “error” messages and buffering.

[@dollycook9121]

We are going to Disneyland soon and I got my son the DAS pass. Unfortunately, we are going with friends and the rest of them exceeds 5 people. So we can’t add them all. So the advanced selections we made may not work if we all want to go. We may need to use Genie+ instead. Disneyland’s ride selections are less than Disney World, so there are not too many anyways. I will see how DAS compares with Genie+ there!

[@ACoupleTravelers]

Not many people use Genie+ at Disneyland, you’ll get soooo much done. And use rope drop to prioritize the rides that don’t have it- like the fantasyland rides (Peter pan, etc)!!

[@dollycook9121]

@@ACoupleTravelers we just got back from Disneyland. Our friends ended up going on some different rides that my son didn’t want to go on so we used the DAS pass for others. We mostly used it for some rides that don’t have GeniePlus like the Fantasyland rides.

[@bdedelow1]

HEY THERE 😊 Two questions: What would you do if you have two people in your party that would qualify for DAS going on a trip with four base day tickets, that on two park days we will be a party of Five but then the other two park days we will be a party of Seven (We have other family joining us). My other question is as long as the DAS person is going on the ride can we modify the members of the party for each ride; based on who wants to go? Thank you in advance this video has been so immensely helpful ❤

[@ACoupleTravelers]

You may need two separate DAS then since they will only link 5 people (I don’t think they will link 6 even if not everyone will ride everything every time) it may be a question for the cast member when you go to register!

Hi its 30 days before the first day of my trip, the last day of my trip or it doesnt matter? Thanks for the video!

[@ACoupleTravelers]

We did it 30 days from first PARK day of trip (not arrival day of your trip).

[@DM-jn5hm]

Hi! Thank you for this great video! Do you know if there is a way to add 1 more person to a group (our group is of 7.people. 3 Adults, 4 kids).

[@ACoupleTravelers]

You will have to simply ask and hope they make an exception! It’s not guaranteed. Good luck!

[@amylb4761]

Thank you so much for this video. Do you have to have your Disney passes purchased and visits booked before you apply for DAS? And do you get magic passes after qualifying in the mail or is that included in the ticket purchase?

[@ACoupleTravelers]

Yes, you need to purchase your tickets first and know which parks you plan to do on which days! What do you mean by magic passes?

[@amylb4761]

@@ACoupleTravelers thank you! I mean the wrist bands.

[@ACoupleTravelers]

@@amylb4761 oh! You have to pay for those now and you buy them in your my Disney experience account

I used DAS in 2022 with a large group (more than 6). We had the entire party linked in the MDE app. I could still book myself +5 others on a ride at a time, but the other riders changed throughout the day. Did the rules change that only 5 other people can be linked now, regardless of my group size in MDE?

[@ACoupleTravelers]

They told me only 5 but I would definitely contact Disney about this (or ask your travel agent!) for specifics/if they want exceptions! I’m guessing having more linked is fine, as long as only 5 are joining per ride.

[@amiemacdonald3829]

What was the issues you had with having the 2 das? I have 2 kids that may want to do diff rides. Am I able to book them on different rides at round about the same time?

[@ACoupleTravelers]

If you want to do different rides then great! We wanted to do the same mostly and it was annoying to have to each select a return time instead of one person doing it for the whole group. We were a party of 6, so it didn’t make sense to need two people to do it

[@user-gh3mo6qp2l]

So if we have 8 in the party…is there a way to work it out? Maybe utilizing Rider swap? We’ll have 6 adults 2 children

[@amywohltjen5532]

We will be a party of 8, with only 6 using the DAS pass. All 8 are linked on MDE. Do the 2 not utilizing the pass need to scan in to the park as well to make the day of reservations? Or just the 6 that will be?

[@ACoupleTravelers]

Only those the 6 who are in the das group and want to be selected to ride something have to have scanned into the park!

[@Nanasworld62]

Thanks for making this video. VERY helpful. I do have a question, if i get a return time for GoG using my das and am lucky enough to also get a VQ can I ride it 2x or is it a once only per day ride?

[@ACoupleTravelers]

Yes, you can do that. The VQ line though is much longer, so if you get a VQ time, go to the lightning lane and show you have that and are approved for DAS and they should let you in the LL! That’s how it worked for us with Rise of the Resistance!

[@cindys9955]

Thank you for your video. I have a question about the attractions can not be pre-selected. For Avatar flight or Star Wars or other ILL attractions, can I use Das after scanning into the park or need to buy ILL for these? Thank you!

[@ACoupleTravelers]

@@cindys9955 it depends on the ride! Some can simply be selected that day, some you can join a free virtual queue, then join the lightning lane since you have das!

[@DisneyMarkUK]

Thanks for this. I’m trying to do this on my phone and iPad but it’s not taking me to the DAS link. Do you have to start it on a computer? Thank you

[@ACoupleTravelers]

I’ve heard a lot of people Do it on their phone, but a computer works well so I’d try that if you are having issues!

[@DisneyMarkUK]

@@ACoupleTravelersThank you. I’ve just found out that you need to use a VPN as it need to be done on the US website.

[@alycemcsherry1391]

Regarding the situation where you have two people in your party with the DAS pass: hear you saying that just getting one is easier, but my question is what if one of you likes to ride different rides in the other one does? It will be me and my 10 year old daughter, so I will want to ride a roller coaster for instance and she may want to go to a different ride at the same time? One more question regarding when you combine DAS pass and genie plus : if you do this, then that means everyone assigned your party would also have to get Genie plus is that correct? also if you both have Genie plus can those be for separate rides if you don’t want to go on the same ride?

[@ACoupleTravelers]

Yes, if they are interested in different rides, than two DAS would make sense here!! you would have to purchase genie+ for each individual but yes, you could select different rides, just each person can only have one DAS and one Genie+ at a time!

[@jessicacurtis4862]

Very helpful!! I have the Disney Experience log in but my husband is the one requesting DAS, does he need his own log in or can he give them mine? I will be doing all of the ride selections and such.

[@ACoupleTravelers]

He can log be logged in under you account. He doesn’t need his own MDE account, just can be a family member listed under your account!

[@mhart3733]

Would I-need to know the date that we are going to Disney world magic kingdom . We can’t decide on which day in 2 weeks time ! Thank you

[@ACoupleTravelers]

Yes. The best part is making two pre selections. So you would need to know a date to do that. If you don’t care about that, you can just get approval and it’s good for 60 days.

[@jenniferagee2450]

Hello Great tips, I hope you see this since this video was made 5 months ago. My question is one of my return times for my preselections is 5:00 pm does this mean when we get into the park early we have to wait until we ride that attraction that has the DAS for 5:00pm before we can get another DAS attraction?

[@ACoupleTravelers]

Nope! Ignore the pre-selections in the park and treat those as bonus rides! Once you scan in, you’ll select your first ride. Then, it’s the one at a time rule!

[@doloresseames5067]

With DAS do you get a wrist band to use to scan into the rides? or how else do you scan in for a ride?

[@ACoupleTravelers]

You would have to buy a MagicBand or you use your park ticket or can use the app on your phone!

[@TocaBirdie]

Question : what are we scanning at the park and rides ? My phone app where I have all of our tickets ? Or do they give you something to scan for DAS for the whole family ?

[@ACoupleTravelers]

You would scan your magicband or your ticket on the MDE app, since DAS would be linked to that!

[@user-ff8yl2ob3r]

Hi this was super helpful. We are taking our daughter with special needs to Disney for the 1st time. Am I understanding correctly that outside of 2 Das passes. The Das can be used almost like a lightning lane the rest of thr day once you have scanned into the park? As long as the Das rider is riding the rides.

[@ACoupleTravelers]

Yes, selecting one ride at a time!

[@skateunit100]

My cast member didn’t offer preselecting rides. I didn’t know you could until I watched this video. Can I still contact them and preselect rides?

[@ACoupleTravelers]

Yes, reach back out!!

[@tessmoran2169]

You might’ve already answered this question but I can’t find it. If we decide not to ride our preselected rides do we have to check in to those before choosing our next ride with DAS?

[@ACoupleTravelers]

Nope, you don’t need to cancel those! Only if it’s a ride you selected day or would you need to cancel before you can book something else!
