“We were looking at the flower and garden kiosk in front of the American pavilion walkway and a man pushed between my son and another woman…The two of them collided and they both rolled over each other.”

Walt Disney World’s theme parks have been noticeably busy and look to be even more so as Spring Break 2022 goes into full effect. Increased crowds combined with the increased need for Guests to be on their cell phones for mobile ordering and to check Disney Genie and Lightning Lane availability can result in even more unfortunate collisions like the one reported here.

“So many people are on their phones between Genie+, mobile ordering,” Jennifer added. “It scares me for the future of the Park as more and more things become reliant on mobile apps.”
All incoming Guests should be aware that Cast Members and Security personnel are always patrolling the Parks and are prepared to respond appropriately to any alternating situations like the one mentioned in this article. Never hesitate to reach out for Cast Members, Security, or Guest Relations.
