Disney to make standing in line — and cash — passe

Digital system may raise privacy concerns, too

ORLANDO — Imagine Walt Disney World with no entry turnstiles. Cash? Passe. Visitors would wear rubber bracelets encoded with credit card information, snapping up corn dogs and Mickey Mouse ears with a tap of the wrist. Smartphone alerts would signal when it is time to ride Space Mountain, without standing in line.

Fantasyland? Hardly. It happens starting this spring.
