Show Notes

The U.S. Department of Justice has sued United Parks and Resorts, alleging their ban on wheeled walkers and rollators with seats at SeaWorld Orlando and Busch Gardens Tampa Bay violates the Americans with Disabilities Act. The suit follows a policy shift in November 2025, which limited access for people with disabilities. The change impacted seniors, veterans, and children with mobility issues, who faced high rental fees for alternative mobility aids. Local reporting led to a federal probe, resulting in the lawsuit, which seeks policy changes, staff training, compensation, and civil penalties. SeaWorld has since offered to store banned walkers and provide free alternatives, but the legal battle continues to ensure equal access.
