Rider Swap Fast Pass ?

[EMHDad]

Fast Pass Times are now being enforced.

Does anyone know if rider swap passes have return time limits?

 

[MnMomW3Boys]

Nope no return times on the rider swap, just the days date.

 

[EMHDad]

Great! thats what I was hoping. That is going to give us a little leeway when going on rides.

Correct as of last week.

Thats just awesome. We rider swap every ride possible. With a little planning, we can save the rider swap passes for a little later in the day when its crowded and take better advantage.

Oh, that's just perfect.

I'm looking forward to using the heck out of rider swap on our June trip - since DD3 is just not going to grow enough in the next month to get on the 40" rides. DS6 will get to ride them a lot, though!

huh?

good. This is helpful to know! Thanks!

The full day window is very useful! We've gone 3 times with our twins (who are almost 3 now) and depending on wait times, by the time the first rider was off there would often be reasons the second rider couldn't go right then (meal or bottle time, diaper change, just needing to do something the kids could enjoy). We'll often save up some of the switch passes for when they fall asleep in the stroller or when we can pass them off to our nanny for an hour or two and then get them all in at once so the kids have as little awake wait time as possible.

Well, then enjoy the rides

I know you have to 'show' the non-riding baby/child when you get the rider swap pass - but do they have to be with you when you return to use the pass?

In other words, if I get a swap pass in the morning and stay with DGrD(1) while DD, DSinL, DS and his GF all ride - can I return later in the day with DS and his GF to use the swap pass if DD and DSinL take baby for a nap? or does baby need to be there both times? KWIM?? lol I'm confusing myself

Nope! Just the people riding on the rider swap pass need to be present when you go to use the rider swap.

Can someone refresh my memory on how it works. Do you get the rider swap pass immediately, when the first person steps into the standby line, or do you go through the line and come out the exit line and then ask for one.

Also, showing the nonrider will be easy. My son has a way of making sure people know he's there. lol

 

[jjsdad]

They give it to you when you enter the line. They usually hand it to the person walking into the line but I have also had them just give it to the person staying behind with the child.

You get the rider swap pass before your first ride, when you enter the standby or FP line (if you've chosen to obtain FP for your first ride through).

Thanks elphie! That will work great for me The last two trips I've taken have been alone with non-thrill-ride-rider DGrD(8) - so I am excited to think I'll get a chance to ride my favs this time - and with my DS - who is coming in from Calif.

Another quick question. One of the links in some of the other threads regarding Rider Swap said it was only available for rides with FastPass. I thought it was available for all rides... Granted, the rides my son is too small for are FastPass rides, but just want to make sure.

Another thing that is being taken advantage of.

How long till Disney stops doing this kindness due to people pushing the intended purpose?

People never cease to amaze me, a company tries to do something nice and help people and they have to see how much they can push it.

Nice.

It is only for rides with a height requirement and I think all of those have fast passes. Not 100% sure if all height requirement rides do so don't hang me, but I think so. Does PW? that one I'm not sure of.
