There is no disability line as such for entering the parks as far as I know, our experience is you just go through the centre of the queues so a CM will let those in wheelchairs or pushchairs through with a carer separately.

There IS a disabled entrance, at the security checkpoints and both park entrances, just look for the disabled badge above the turnstiles or in the general queue line areas.  If you can't see it just look for the nearest cast member, show them your green pass and ask them to show you where the disabled entrance is.  We only found out about them on the last day of our most recent trip so they're not that obvious but they do exist and you get straight in!  This was a godsend on our last day as the security queue was sooo huge, it was like being in a football crowd and my son was bordering on a massive meltdown!  Have a great time and don't be afraid to ask for help from the cast members if you need it, they're amazing!

^ There is a disabled entrance, but at the same time there isn't.
The disabled entrance is at the Walt Disney Studios Park the most right turnstile, and at the Disneyland Park the same.
However the ONLY reason why it's a disabled entrance, it's because the booth is a little bit wider than the others so that wheelchairs can pass through it a bit more easily.
It is NOT a disabled entrance in the sense of: when you go through there, it's a reduced queue.

The cast member saw our green pass, pulled us out of the crowd, took us down the side and straight through the disabled entrance.  She actually said "you don't have to queue, just come down the side and come straight here."  They weren't allowing non-disabled guests to go through the disabled turnstile therefore there was no queue.  Had there been a queue of disabled people we would've had to wait our turn in that queue but there wasn't.  This was exactly the same at the security checkpoints.

At the security checkpoint that is indeed the case.
However at the turnstiles, it isn't.
Then you've just had a very nice cast member, and you've been lucky :)

We asked and was told not during EMH. One of the queues to get into the studio was marked up as disabled entrance but had a normal queue
