DOJ Says Policy May Violate Disability Rights
In early November 2025, SeaWorld Orlando quietly changed its website to ban a common mobility device: the rollator walker with a built-in seat.
Visitors who had used these walkers for years suddenly found themselves stopped at the gate. One woman was allowed in on a Friday night and turned away the next morning.
Now the U.S. Department of Justice is investigating whether the ban violates the Americans with Disabilities Act, and the answer could affect how theme parks across Florida treat guests with disabilities.
