Walt Disney World: Keep families together
Queues should be accessible to everyone, no matter the height requirement of the attraction. Stop separating families who have paid to spend time together in your parks.
Why is this important?
While visiting the Florida theme parks with my family I was appalled to learn that WDW's policy for their attractions is such:
If a person does not meet the height requirement for an attraction they are not allowed to stand in the queue for that attraction. This includes any aged child.
The problem with this restrictive policy is that parents are now forced to be separated from their children.
Example situations:
A grandparent takes a 4 year old and a 7 year old to an attraction at the Magic Kingdom. The 4 year old is not tall enough to ride but the 7 year old is. The grandparent now has to stay outside the attraction with the younger child and the older child is forced to wait in the line alone or not ride at all.
A mom and dad with a 1 year old would like to use the "Child Swap" option at an attraction. The 1 year old is not allowed to be in the queue. The parents must now wait separately. One in line alone, one out side the attraction with the baby.
It is unfair to ask children to be separated from their families.
It is unfair to ask families to be separated from one another.
Walt Disney World, Please reconsider this restrictive policy that puts families in compromised situations!
