I would like to know details about child swap. How does this work and save on wait times? Does everyone go through the line together and take turns on the ride? Or does the first set wait in line and once they are done the other set waits in line again?

Question

Answer 1

Hi Heather!

Walt Disney World calls this feature "Rider Switch". It is designed to allow members of a party to take turns waiting with a child who isn't riding an attraction, without everyone having to wait in line again.

Here is a link to a great explanation of Rider Switch on the Walt Disney World website, as well as a list of attractions that allow it.

I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions.
