Select Disney World Services Are Experiencing Technical Issues Today

We’ve been making our way all around the Disney World theme parks this Thanksgiving week to see what new things we could spot and get a feel for the holiday crowds.

But, not everything always runs smoothly in Disney World. We’ve seen Disney experience some technical difficulties recently at Spaceship Earth in EPCOT as well with its dining reservation system. Today, it appears Disney is experiencing issues with some of its other systems.

According to AllEars.net, Disney World’s Disability Access Service system is currently having some technical difficulties. A Cast Member in Disney’s Hollywood Studios has indicated that the system was working sporadically for many Disney employees today.

AllEars shared that one guest actually received a physical Disability Access Service card (as opposed to using the digital system) today in Disney’s Animal Kingdom while the service was down.

So, if a Cast Member has a tablet that isn’t working or a Guest’s MagicBand isn’t scanning correctly due to issues with the Disability Access Service system, it appears these paper cards may be utilized instead. That’s something to keep in mind if you ever experience these same kinds of technical issues during a future visit.

AllEars.net also reported that My Disney Experience also experienced some difficulties today, giving guests trouble with loading wait times for attractions within the parks. If we hear any further updates about these technical issues, we’ll let you know.

Expedition Everest also experienced some issues today and was evacuated — check out the details here.
