Rider swap question...

[jksmith17]

We are a family of 5 - my husband and I, and our 3 daughters (3, 8, 10). On the rides where my 3 year old is not tall enough to ride, will they let us do a rider swap where my husband and oldest daughter ride, and then they swap with me and my middle daughter? That way someone is able to wait with our 3 year old. The explanation on the website is more geared towards a family of 4 where a parent would swap with the same child. Thanks for any insight on this!

Yes. In fact the 8 & 10 year olds could both ride again.

Example. We get fp for splash for 2. Mom and one daughter ride, they get a pass for 3 to come back, so dad and both kids can ride. Then we do the same for big thunder, and we rotate which kid gets to ride twice.

That's exactly how it works. By the end of our last trip, my three year old was leaning against a tree and singing "The Baby Swap Blues"!

Thank you for the explanations! So let me understand this a little better... for all 4 of us to ride Big Thunder Mountain, for example (although not at the same time), we only need to get a FP for 2? And then get the swap for the remaining 2?

Yes, exactly

yes but the child with FP+ could also ride the second time so 3 ride that time
