Lightning Lane Tips

Lightning Lane allows you to reserve times to ride the most popular attractions. ​Here’s how it works:


Using Rider Switch

Traveling to Disney with young kids who aren't tall enough or brave ​enough for some rides? Rider Switch can help so one adult doesn’t always ​have to sit out. Here’s how:


  • Check for Rider Switch: Ask a Cast Member at the ride entrance if they ​offer Rider Switch. Most thrill rides do.
  • Request Rider Switch: Tell the Cast Member you want to use Rider ​Switch. They’ll split the adults into a first rider and a second rider. The ​second rider and any non-riding child will get a Ride Switch ​Entitlement.
  • Swap and Ride: After the first rider finishes, they swap with the second ​rider, who can then ride without waiting in line. The second rider can ​bring one guest to the front of the line.
