I watched this a bit when I was there in July but don’t remember exactly if it spins around.
I have vertigo issues but the Jingle Christmas version caught my eye and I was thinking I might like to try it. Would be fun with the Christmas music and all.

I remember the cars sliding around but do they actually spin? Cause that would be a definite no for me.

As always, TIA for your suggestions.
 
No, they do not spin. It's not like Mad Tea Party. It's more like Dumbo in a way, with the tail of the ride vehicle sliding left and right. You never actually spin in a circle.
 
I wanna say no but for some reason I’m not sure now lol. If I remember right it’s like a mix of scrambler and tilt a whirl. Now I’m second guessing myself though lol.
 
The ride vehicles do not spin, but the whole ride does. It's not teacup level, but it is a bit more than Dumbo IMO. I have vertigo issues as well. The loop on Incredicoaster sets me off. It's not major vertigo, I just need to stand in one spot for a bit after the rides to collect myself.
 

I do want to toss something out. Mater's is a tractor ride. They do not spin. They do go circular around a track, like the tea cups, except no spinning.

Luigi's are cars that dance to Christmas music. They do spin at the end.
 
Ohmigosh…is my face red!! What a goof, yes I meant Luigi’s. Although now that I’ve looked at YouTube videos, I’ll prolly have to give both a pass.

Man, I hate this dizzy thing but hey, I’m thankful there are still so many attractions I can still enjoy!

On Luigi's, yes, some of the individual cars spin. I can't remember if they all spin every ride, or with just some of the song versions. I know I've been in some pretty darn spinning rides on Luigi. I find the spinning more intense than the tea cups because I can't control the spinning like I can on tea cups-- at least I can stop my cup from spinning!
 
I found these patches on Amazon that seemed to help a lot with my vertigo on rides. I haven’t tried them at DL yet, but I wore them at a local amusement park and rode a ton of rides with didn’t think I could have. Looking forward to trying them out at DL in December!

There are numerous options on Amazon but I just bought ones with a lot of reviews and a good fake spot rating.
