Hey there, Matt!
What a great way for your family to celebrate the new year! I bet you are all extra excited to countdown to 2025, knowing that just a few days later you'll be hanging out with Mickey and friends at the Most Magical Place on Earth.
Rider Switch was such a great service for us back when my little ones were too little for some of the more adventurous attractions. I know it's appreciated by many! When using Rider Switch, the Guest in Party 2 is able to bring only one Guest back with them to experience the attraction. My recommendation is to have one kid ride with your wife and the other wait with you to ride once they return. You could also have them each pick a favorite and that's the attraction that they get to experience twice. My daughter loves
The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror™, so I know she'd be ready to "drop-in" a second time, while my son would be happy to sit that one out to experience
Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith twice.
If you want a little extra time in Magic Kingdom Park to experience some of your favorites, they just announced that
Disney After Hours will be returning for a limited time beginning January 6th, 2025. This special event grants Guests who purchase the ticket, 3 extra hours after the park closes to general admission Guests! This time is some of my favorite for exploring the parks, plus ice cream, popcorn and select bottled beverages are included in the price of admission.
Happy planning, Matt! If there is anything else we can assist you with before your vacation, please let us know!
Magical Wishes,
Lauren
