I believe you can arrange for a special location for those with medical issues. I found this on the DCL website:Sorry - one more question:
Since we will be standing out on deck for the muster, what about an elderly person who can't stand for very long? Even if they could lean on a wall, that might help, but probably not much chance of that.
Thank you!I believe you can arrange for a special location for those with medical issues. I found this on the DCL website:
if a Guest has other questions or concerns regarding the Mandatory Guest Assembly Drill, contact Disney Cruise Line Special Services at least 60 days in advance of sailing at (407)566-3602 [phone] or (407) 566-7455 [TTY] or via email at specialservices@disneycruise.com.
You can probably also arrange to borrow a wheelchair through Guest Relations.Sorry - one more question:

Ok, thank you.You can probably also arrange to borrow a wheelchair through Guest Relations.
Another tip (if the others don't work/help): get to the muster station early, and explain the situation. They may be able to give a chair to sit on, or a wall space a bit away from the group. No guarantees, but others have reported doing that and it helped.Ok, thank you.

Yes. We did not anticipate how hot and suffocating it will be, but fortunately had water bottles with us (Spring break traveling from well below freezing temps).Wait, they're making you congregate at your muster stations again? I thought they stopped that in lieu of just showing up to show you knew where it was and getting signed off?
We just got off RCCL's Odyssey of the Seas which had us do an online video and then go to our station and get signed in. No more stand and get squished on deck 4 (Fantasy experience, pre-Covid)

Needless to say we changed our upcoming cruise rooms to avoid the outdoor drills.

Yes DCL is the only ones doing the old school drill and it doesn't make sense.Wait, they're making you congregate at your muster stations again? I thought they stopped that in lieu of just showing up to show you knew where it was and getting signed off?

When it first returned to lining up outside, they said it was the Coast Guard wanting it that way. Obviously, that isn't true if other cruise lines aren't doing it.Yes DCL is the only ones doing the old school drill and it doesn't make sense.
We were late to e-muster for our March 2022 WBPC cruise. It wasn’t our first experience with it; we had cruised the prior August and November and had no problems. This time, it wouldn't take the photo and confirm we were there. We had to meet with a safety officer the next morning. I can confirm, at least in early 2022 that it didn’t delay our sailing.I wonder if Disney is continuing the old muster system for 100% compliance compared to reports from other cruise line passengers with e-muster of the constant reminders to check in at the muster stations due to the numerous non-compliant cruisers and delayed sailings.
Neck fans and small battery operated fans should be ok. There are some restrictions on fans that can be brought onboard (plandisney might not be 100% accurate/up to date):Thank you for the link! That is good to know.
Last time, I knew we’d muster on deck so I brought a little fan similar to this:

I have also brought a little hand held fan like this one with no issues.Neck fans and small battery operated fans should be ok. There are some restrictions on fans that can be brought onboard (plandisney might not be 100% accurate/up to date):
