Rider Swap


By Webmaster - Posted on 10 March 2009

     Sometimes your child may simply be too short to ride (especially on the high end rollercoasters).  If you find yourself wanting to ride an attraction, and your child unable, you might consider the "Rider Swap" program offered by Disney.

 

     This complimentary service allows adults to switch off riding an attraction without doubling the wait time.  It's perfect for those rides where you don't have a Fastpass.  Here's how it works: 

  • The first adult will join the normal wait queue, and ask a Cast Member for a "Rider Swap" ticket.  These are sometimes called "Baby Swap" and "Stroller Swap" on the Disney message boards.
  • The first adult will wait in line for the ride, while the second adult stays with the children.
  • After riding, the first adult gives the second adult the "Rider Swap" card, and that adult gets to join the FASTPASS wait queue (or an alternate wait queue designated by the Cast Member manning the entrance).

 

Be sure to ask Cast Members about the "Rider Swap" program for your favorite adult attractions!

Tip of the Day

Strollers for young children with ASD can be very helpful. Strollers help in several ways. The kids don't get as tired walking around the park. The stroller can provide a safe and familiar place for a child with ASD to retreat and regroup. And many strollers can be used as a wheelchair, allowing you to sit in the handicapped section at some shows and attractions. Find a stroller that will work for you and your child.
