Rich moms find a loophole in Disney's long waiting lines.
A circle of wealthy Manhattan moms has apparently been using a service that rents out a disabled guide to pose as a family member, according to New York Post. This allows their groups to bypass the long lines and gain access to other special services.
Said one customer, “You can’t go to Disney without a tour concierge. This is how the 1 percent does Disney.” She reported that instead of waiting 2 and a half hours like everyone else, her daughter got into “It’s a Small World” in roughly a minute.
In addition to being light on conscience, evidently the families utilizing the service are thrifty. The fees run 130 dollars per hour, less than half the price of Disney’s official VIP and fast passes option.
Plus, as Dr. Wednesday Martin, the social anthropologist who uncovered the scheme, pointed out, being privy to exclusive information gives them a feeling of self-importance.
As far as the tour company that’s allegedly behind the quick line plot, its owner denied everything except for the fact that his girlfriend does indeed have a medical condition that requires she ride around work in a scooter.
