Have you Tried Rider Switch at Disney Parks?

Did you know Disney Parks have a Rider Switch program for young children?  If a child does not meet the height requirement or does not want to ride a particular attraction (because it’s too scary, intense, etc.), one adult can wait with the non-rider (or riders) outside the entrance or exit while the rest of the party enjoys the attraction. When the other adult returns, they supervise the non-riding guests, and the waiting adult can board the attraction without having to wait in the regular line again.

To use Rider Switch, your entire party heads to the entrance of the attraction, where they’ll find a Cast Member.  At least one adult member of your party and the guests who are not riding will be issued a digital Rider Switch entitlement by the Cast Member and asked to wait in a designated area near the exit or entrance of the attraction.  ​

The other guests enter through the standby line as normal and ride the attraction first. After the ride, the group will find their remaining party and swap supervision of the non-riding children.  The second adult along with one other rider (optional) then boards the attraction through the FastPass queue with minimal wait.  Rider Switch is available on attractions with height requirements that have FastPass queues. ​

​It's as simple as that!  Rider Switch makes it easy for everyone in the family to enjoy their favorite rides.
