Yes, Universal Orlando Resort does provide accommodations for guests with disabilities. Please read below for more information or download our Guide for Safety and Accessibility (Universal Epic Universe, Universal Studios Florida and Islands of Adventure; Volcano Bay) for complete details.
- Cognitive Disabilities: Universal Orlando Resort's theme parks may provide challenges to guests with certain cognitive disabilities. The Sensory Guide for Guests with Cognitive Disabilities has been created so that these guests and their families can enjoy their time with us comfortably and safely.
- Hearing Disabilities: Universal Orlando offers open captioning queue monitors, show scripts at select live shows and assistive listening devices at select attractions. In addition, interpreting services in American Sign Language are available for select in-park live shows. Guests interested in using these services should email their request to SignLanguageServices@universalorlando.com a minimum of 14 days prior to their visit. Guests can read more information about this in our Guide to Safety & Accessibility (Universal Epic Universe, Universal Studios Florida and Islands of Adventure; Volcano Bay).
- Vision Disabilities: The Guide for Rider Safety and Accessibility (Universal Epic Universe, Universal Studios Florida and Islands of Adventure; Volcano Bay) is available in large print and Braille at Guest Services in Universal Studios, Islands of Adventure and Universal Epic Universe. Plus, large print and Braille scripts outlining the dialogue for select in-park live action shows are available for loan inside select locations at Universal Studios Florida, Universal Islands of Adventure and Universal Epic Universe. Learn more about accommodations for Guests with vision disabilities.
- Mobility Services: Universal Orlando's shopping and dining facilities, attraction queues and certain attractions are wheelchair accessible, and an IBCCES Individual Accessibility Card (IAC) is not required to access them while in a mobility device. Guest can read more information on this in our Guide for Rider Safety and Accessibility (Universal Epic Universe, Universal Studios Florida and Islands of Adventure; Volcano Bay).
You can register for the free IBCCES Accessibility Card (IAC) online at AccessibilityCard.org or via its free mobile app found either on the Apple and Google Play stores. We recommend you register for your IAC within 30 days of your visit to the park or at least 48 hours before your planned visit to Universal Orlando Resort. If you have questions or need assistance with the registration process, contact the Universal Destinations & Experiences Guest Accessibility Team at +1 (407) 224-4233 or +1 (833) 892-4365.
The IAC requires the following information to register the person needing an attraction queue accommodation:
- Recent photograph of the cardholder for identification purposes
- Contact information for the cardholder or the parent/guardian/support person of the cardholder
- Contact information and statement from medical provider, government entity or other entity related to accommodations requested
The IAC does not guarantee a specific attraction nor haunted house queue accommodation at Universal Orlando Resort. Once all requirements for the IBCCES Individual Accessibility Card are met, a Universal Destinations & Experiences Guest Accessibility Team Member will contact the cardholder to discuss their request for an attraction and haunted house queue accommodation prior to their park visit.
Once all requirements for an IAC are met, a Universal Destinations and Experiences Guest Accessibility Team Member will contact the cardholder to discuss their request for an attraction and haunted house queue accommodation and, if applicable, set up their AAP in our Universal Orlando Resort App. Note, an IAC does not guarantee a Guest will receive a specific queue accommodation. For Guests who have questions or need assistance with the registration process, contact the Universal Destinations & Experiences Guest Accessibility Team at +1 (407) 224-4233 or +1 (833) 892-4365.
The Attractions Assistance Pass (AAP) is an accommodation offered for Guests whose disability prevents them from waiting for extended periods in an attraction or haunted house queue environment. The AAP offers equal queue access to theme park attractions and is not to bypass other Guests waiting in the attraction or haunted house queue. The AAP has been digitised for convenience and provides Guests with the ability to receive their own digital return time.
The AAP is now integrated through the Universal Orlando Resort App, giving guests with a valid AAP the opportunity to receive their own return time directly in the Universal Orlando Resort App.
Following a conversation with our Universal Destinations and Experiences Guest Accessibility Team Member, Guests whose disability prevents them from waiting for extended periods in an attraction or haunted house queue environment may be issued an AAP. Please note that having an IAC does not guarantee specific attraction or haunted house queue accommodations at Universal Orlando Resort, including the AAP.
Guests can use their AAP via the Universal Orlando Resort App at participating attractions at Universal Studios Florida, Universal Islands of Adventure and Universal Epic Universe. Guests visiting Universal Volcano Bay must visit Guest Services upon arrival. Then they can use their AAP via the Universal Orlando Resort App or a designated AAP wristband provided by Guest Services. The use of an AAP may not be available during special events and is subject to change without notice. Guests must have valid event admission to access attractions and haunted houses after regular park hours.
No. Most attraction queues at Universal Studios Florida, Universal Islands of Adventure, Universal Epic Universe, or Halloween Horror Nights haunted house queues are accessible to guests using wheelchairs and other mobility devices. Guests who only need to remain in their wheelchair or other mobility device while waiting in a queue do not need to register for an IBCCES Individual Accessibility Card (IAC) or request an Attraction Queue Accommodation. Guests visiting Universal Volcano Bay should refer to the Volcano Bay Guide for Rider Safety & Accessibility or contact the Universal Destinations & Experiences Guest Accessibility Team.
No. Guests who need an occasional or unexpected break while waiting in an attraction or haunted house queue may use the Attraction Queue Re-Entry process. One Guest (or one Guest with a companion, if needed) may temporarily leave the queue while the remainder of the travel party stays in line. When ready to return, the Guest should check in with a Team Member at the attraction or haunted house entrance for assistance. No IBCCES Individual Accessibility Card (IAC) registration or Attraction Queue Accommodation is required.
Guests can use their AAP through the Universal Orlando Resort App at participating rides, attractions and selected shows at Universal Studios Florida, Universal Islands of Adventure, Universal Epic Universe and at haunted houses during Halloween Horror Nights. Guests visiting Universal Volcano Bay must visit Guest Services upon arrival. Once registered, guests can use their AAP through the Universal Orlando Resort App or with a designated AAP wristband provided by Guest Services. AAP access may not be available during selected special events and is subject to change without notice.

QR codes generated for Guests and their Companion Party Members with an AAP return time can only be found on the AAP Holder's Universal Account in the Universal Orlando Resort App, or in the case of a minor, the person managing their Universal Account.
