interesting, so the VIP pass is used to bypass the RAP rules. what happens in the situation an evacuation is required?
Obviously the park won’t know this VIP is disabled as they won’t be in the correct seating / wristband and the person wouldn’t have the carer to assist them.
It be inappropriate for me to post specifics about someone on here, especially about their disability. The VIP is a regular and well known by the ride ops, and they are fully aware of his disability.
I just want to change people perceptions. Having a disability (especially if you are a wheelchair user) don't affect their ability to hear, think or their mental capacity. Most disable people live independent lives and don't necessarily require a carer or help. A wheelchair may not be able to walk long distances but can quiet easily board and evacuate from a ride. I see many disable people that have limbs missing doing amazing things like rock climbing, climb stairs (I know a lady that have no arms/hands, but paint amazing picture using her mouth). However, level access will allow these people to have a bit of dignity that they deserve and save them the embarrassment of climbing up stairs or crawling along the ground.
Please don't assume that because someone has a disability (including wheelchair users) that they can't be independent too.
