FP+ and Baby Swap

[HeyIt'sMe]

I'm sure this has been asked and answered before so I apologize for asking it again.

My DSIS and her family are visiting WDW for the first time in October. She has a 4 yo DD that will be less than 40" at the time of their trip so DSIS and DBIL will need to utilize Baby Swap.

Question - how does FP+ and Baby Swap work? Do both DSIS and DBIL need FP+ for rides that they need to do Baby Swap?

TIA!
Debbie

Unless it has changed since we were there in December, only one of you need the FP+. When we went, DD was tall enough for Barnstormer and the speedway, but DS was not. I made seperate FP+ reservations for my DH and myself and DD got to go with each of us since she was 2 and didn't meet her own ticket. Worked out great and she got a second ride with the parent that didn't go with her the first time.

Just ask for the rider switch pass at the entrance to the FP+ line. They may want to see the DD, but they aren't going to make a big deal out of it.
