Hello dear savvy Disney friends!
Please I need some help with FP.
I already read a lot here but still not sure.
We are going to spend 1 day at MK.
We are 2 adults and 2 girls under 3 years old. They are 36 inches and 40 inches. They are not into princesses yet.
We will be strolling around with a double stroller as well. Not sure how hard it will be even in a wednesday.
My oldest doesn't like noisy and dark places either.
I am hoping we can get in the park around 10 am.
We have selected 3 attractions in the morning hoping we could use 1 more FP in the afternoon after lunch break.
Should we change it or keep it the way it's.
We will be going on 02/24.
Please any help is welcome.
Thank you very much.



09:50-10:50
Meet Mickey at Town House

10:55-11:55
Tomorrow land speedway

12:20-01:20
Dumbo the flying elephant
 
Here are the attractions we are hoping to enjoy.

Attractions considered based on high and islands.

3. Meet Mickey Mouse - Tiwn Square

72. Astro Orbiter

71. Space mountain

70. Tomorrow land speedway

55. Dumbo flying elephant

59. The barnstormer

57. Meet Donald

53. Under the sea

50. Winnie the Pooh ride

52. Seven Dwarfs Train

48. Princess hall

46. Carrousel

43. It's a small world

28. Big thunder

25. Splash mountain

15. The magic Carpet Aladdin
 
For space mountain since only husband and I can ride I thought we could take turns and use the ride alone line option.
 

Change your fast passes from Dumbo and Meet Mickey to Space Mountain and Big Thunder. You'll find a lot better use out of those. Plus, that early you won't need a FP to meet Mickey and Dumbo won't be a bad wait.

Thank you.
I did change.
Now we have FP for the afternoon.

02:45-03:45 Big Tunder Mountain

03:45-04:45 Splash Mountain
If you mean a single rider line, there isn't one. However, rider swap should work for you.

Could my husband use his FP on space mountain then still do a ride swap with me?
i mean this way I could use 1 FP with a different attraction to also ride swap with him.

Bingo. As long as at least one of your children is too short for an attraction, the first parent can ride with a fastpass, and the second can use the rider swap pass later.

Have you done that?
I just want to be 100% sure.
I called Disney and they could not say yes or no.
 
Sorry one more question.
When my husband finish his ride and I am ready to do the ride swap can I take my 2 years old - 40 inches to ride again?
 
Hello, so yes, the method mentioned above is called The Baby Swap, and it has been done many times. Make sure you tell a Cast Member what you are doing, and everything will go smoothly
 
Your shorter daughter will not be able to ride Seven Dwarves Mine Train, Space Mountain, and Big Thunder Mountain.

Well if she's tall enough, then older daughter is tall enough, so rider swap won't work. It only works if the non-riding child isn't tall enough.

Oh wait, you were talking about the older one. Sorry! So yes, that will work. Hubby takes taller daughter on ride; you stay with too-short daughter and get a switch pass; then hubby stays with too-short daughter while you use switch pass to take taller daughter on the ride again.

Yes that's what I meant. Ty!
 
everything with a heigt requirement has rider swap
Really? Cool!
At Disney.com I saw only 6 attractions listed as ride swap.
So whenever we get there we need to let the staff know we will do ride swap. Considering my little one is too little.???
