Help! Rider switch with height restrictions

[ljca79]

I am struggling to make FP+ work for my family, even using Rider Switch. The big problem is this - if my older child uses his three FPs and my younger has not used any, do I have to have the younger ride with just one parent on the other rides? Is there any way for the older child to ride along with us on the FPs? I am guessing no as it would seem unfair as it would basically mean he gets six instead of three, but I need some assistance figuring all of this out! We have never used rider switch before as it is the first time the height restrictions are causing us this issue. Thanks!

Schedule one adult and the older child for 3 FPs. On the Swap, the 2nd adult and the older child can ride again.

Schedule adult #2 and the younger child for 3 different height restricted FPs. Adult #2 and the older child, who uses the short kid's MB, can use these FPs. On the Swap, Adult #1 and older child can ride again.

In essence, the older child gets 12 rides. So, you can lower that number by booking FPs specifically for the short child to ride.

I think I sort of get that! So, a child can always accompany an adult on a FP ride, even if they do not have a FP of their own?

Only on the swap.

For rides for your younger one, you'd have to schedule FPs for the complete family or ride Standby as a Family. You can get a lot done Standby-wise at park opening so that does free up most FPs for height-restricted rides.
