My DH and I are traveling with 2 small kids but don't want to miss out on some of the thrill rides. Can you please tell me which rides (in all 4 parks) have single rider lines? I'd imagine the wait is quite a bit shorter than the stand by lines. Thank you!
 
There are not many:

Test Track - much faster than standby as the cars seat 6 and they will fill every seat.

Rock 'N Roller Coaster - Warning, this single rider line can take just as long as stand-by because of how the grouping works.
 
Only a few have single rider lines, but all other thrill rides will allow you to do Rider Switch if you are travelling with small kids.

Essentially one of you will wait in the regular line and you will be given a Rider Switch pass. Once the first person has waited in the regular line and ridden the ride, the second one will show the Rider Switch pass at the FastPass+ return line and will get to go in that much shorter line. You can use the Rider Switch pass anytime that day, so the person staying with the kids doesn't have to sit around and wait for the person waiting in line to be done. You can go off an do other things with the kids and then come back and use the Rider Switch pass later.


Here are the list of attractions which offer rider switch:

Magic Kingdom Park
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
Splash Mountain
The Barnstormer
Space Mountain
Stitch’s Great Escape
Tomorrowland Indy Speedway


Epcot
Mission: SPACE
Soarin'
Test Track


Disney’s Hollywood Studios
Rock ’n’ Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith
Star Tours® - The Adventures Continue
Twilight Zone Tower of Terror


Disney’s Animal Kingdom Park
DINOSAUR
Expedition Everest - Legend of the Forbidden Mountain®
Kali River Rapids
Primeval Whirl

Expedition Everest also has a single riders line.

Yep, that's all three of 'em.
 
Oh wow, that is a lot fewer than I expected. Disneyland had quite a few. For those particular rides would you recommend doing the single rider line, or spending a precious FP+ on it? We are going 3/14-3/22 and plan to be at each park for RD.
 
If the single rider entry line generally helps for Test Track but not so much at Rock n Roller Coaster, because of how the ride vehicles are configured -- how much do you think the single rider line helps at Expedition Everest?

I'm hoping to (finally) get the courage to ride EE during our next trip, but it would only be me and I'd like to gauge how to best fit it in.

Thanks!
 
I always ride EE once with the fiancé than ride it another 1-2 on my own with single rider(she gets sick if she does to much of any coaster in a short period). I seemed to have pretty good luck usually waiting 15-25 mins.
 
I wish there were more Single Rider lines in WDW... It's incredibly convenient at Disneyland as there are plenty of opportunities for Single Rider on E Ticket attractions... Helps in touring.
