Reply To: Tokyo Disney Ticket for Guests with Disabilities
Thanks for the reply! I ended up getting the specific Guests with Disabilities ticket. I brought my disability placard ID card(USA) as well as a doctors note (in English). Since I went multiple days I tested both and either seemed to suffice, although some Cast Members seemed to examine it more than others, so I think having two types is a safer option.
If anyone is reading this in the future, I did email Disney for some clarity before my trip and this was their response. Hope it helps!
