You can take advantage of ‘Rider Switch’ too if other members of your party want to ride on those rides. How does ‘Rider Switch’ work? One adult waits with the non-rider whilst the rest of the group enjoys the ride. The waiting adult will be given a return time, scanned on to their Magic Band/park ticket. When the original group is off the ride, they can look after the non-rider and the other adult returns to the ride at the given time and gets to head straight to the FastPass+ line.

Rider Switch is available at all height restricted rides.
