DAS and rider swap question

[jenny8484]

Hi! We will be going to WDW in late fall with my 10 year old nonverbal son with autism. I also have a 7 year old daughter and an 18 month old son. My 10 year is a thrill ride seeker and many rides I will have to stay back with the 18 month old. Just was curious how the rider swap worked when you are using a DAS reservation. Do I notify the ride attendant that I am staying behind, and when its my turn to ride, does the DAS holder have to be the one who rides the 2nd time?

The DAS-holder must ride in the first party. The 2nd adult plus 1 other can get a swap to ride after the first party is done; you can rotate who rides 2nd, it does not have to be the DAS-holder.

I believe you will need to include all riders for the DAS Return Time (even those riding second) - someone will correct me if that's wrong.

I also believe that is correct

yes and sometimes they will check if the non-rider has a DAS reservation and just have you use that rather than load the 2nd riders band.
