Can the kid ride twice with Rider Switch?

This means that one Guest will be able to enjoy the attraction twice! This is quite a treat for my boys as they get to take turns enjoying attractions twice when we are using Rider Switch!



Yes, one child can often ride twice using Disney's Rider Switch service, but there are specific limits. The system is designed for parties where one person cannot or does not want to ride (usually due to height requirements). If you have two adults and one older child who is tall enough to ride, the older child can ride once with "Adult A" while "Adult B" waits with the non-riding guest. When the adults swap, the older child can use the Rider Switch entitlement to ride a second time with "Adult B." However, Disney's 2026 policy generally limits the number of people who can "re-ride" with the second adult to one additional guest. This allows the second adult to have a companion so they don't have to ride alone, effectively giving that one "lucky" sibling two turns on attractions like Space Mountain or Rise of the Resistance.

The Rider Switch pass allows up to three guests entry to an attraction, so one adult can take an older child on the ride, then a second adult can take that same child again as part of the second group.

Rider Switch and Disability Access Service can be used together. All riders must be included in the party when the DAS return time is obtained. When you're ready to ride, the DAS holder must be in the first group. Otherwise, the process is the same.

Yes, you can use Rider Switch on Rise of the Resistance at Walt Disney World. But if you want everyone in your party to use the Lightning Lane (and skip the Standby Line), you'll need to purchase an Individual Lighting Lane selection for everyone riding.

MORE DETAILS

You can only use the Lightning Lane for an attraction once a day. Unlike with Fastpass, you are only allowed access the Lightning Lane once per day per attraction. So if you wanna ride an attraction multiple times, you'll be using that standby line for all but one of your turns.

Child Swap Each ride and attraction has a family room where one member of your party can wait with the little ones while the rest of your party rides. Once they are finished, switch places so whoever rode can stay with the kids, and the adult(s) who sat out can enjoy the ride.

Most Walt Disney World Resort attractions are suitable for Guests of any height, but there are some Disney thrills worth growing up for. With a minimum height requirement of 48 inches, TRON Lightcycle / Run in Magic Kingdom Park is one of those thrills.

MORE DETAILS

There are no height restrictions or health and safety advisories for Frozen Ever After. The ride vehicles are boats with four rows of hard bench seats with hard backs. You must step down to board the boats. Guests must transfer from their wheelchair, motorized scooter or ECV to board the ride vehicle.

A person can purchase Disney Genie+ service and book Genie+ Lightning Lane attractions for anyone that appears on their Family and Friends List in My Disney Experience.

MORE DETAILS

Genie Plus is definitely worth it for Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios, and if you don't like early starts, you might consider it for Epcot and Animal Kingdom. If you are park hopping, Genie+ is even better value as it maximises the number of rides you have access to.
