I mean, they do it with the slick Rider Swap/Child Swap - why is this so hard to document and just create a standardized SOP for? Especially for small parties.
The current setup feels very "get DAS - or get denied and just kinda figure out what every attraction will do".

It seems simple to me:
They need to document and formally process each alternative. Waiting in line for someone who can't (something GR will say *is something you can do*) can be a real crapshoot depending on the ride ops. Exiting a queue if you need to and coming in should be a defined process.

Just see the people at Knott's waiting 2 hours in line for Boarding Pass, to skip lines.
Yep. It's a vicious cycle, but hey - once they wanted to do what literally every other park does, they opened this can of worms.

It's actually from an interview that he gave with The E Ticket in the late 90s. It's also extremely stripped of its context. I think that Walt Disney and the old guard animators simply thought of 'story' in a different sense than we do. #WEDReads

I also believe that this was their largest stumbling block to the increase in cost of paid FastPass/LL.
Like $10-$15 a day, yeah - a family might not lie.
But now $40/person? You bet that family is claiming incontinence to save $200.

With a new Unreal Engine, new GPUs, and the whole upgrade they are doing - are they going to even want to spend the effort to port the Corellia mission?
