YOUR GROUP
What you can ride under 102 cm
The ten attractions with a minimum height, and the forty you ride without checking anything.
Of the 50 attractions we plan around across the two parks, only 10 ask for a minimum height — the other 40 have no barrier at all, so the vast majority of the catalogue is open without reaching for a tape measure. The problem is not a shortage of places to go: it is that those ten tend to be exactly the most photographed in the resort, which is why it is worth knowing precisely which they are before promising anyone anything.
The five figures, and which attraction falls under each, are in The minimum heights, one by one, on this section's page. Here the 102 cm cut-off is enough: below it, Big Thunder Mountain, Star Tours and The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror are out.
With a child under 102 cm in the group there are two ways to solve the day, and they should not be confused. The first is baby switch: one adult rides while the other waits with the little one, and they swap on the way out without queueing again. It exists on six attractions, it is free, and it has a limit that guides rarely mention — it is valid for two people at most on that second ride, so with three adults and a baby the third still does not get on. How to ask for it, step by step, is in Baby switch, step by step.
And here is the distinction that really matters: baby switch solves the adults' problem — both of them ride — but it does not solve the group's, because nobody rides together with the little one. It is a different day, not a smaller version of the same day, and it is worth deciding it that way rather than discovering it in the queue.
The last thing that changes the plan: if there is anyone under six in the group, we ask whether you plan to go back to the hotel mid-afternoon. Tell us and we write that pause into your itinerary so the afternoon is built around it; the algorithm does not place it on its own today, so if the answer changes after the Route is generated, write to us and we adjust it by hand. What that trip back really costs —which is a good deal more than the journey— is in Going back to the hotel mid-afternoon.
This part is fixed as soon as your Route is generated, so that the itinerary in your hand and the details it was built from are the same. If you need to change something, write to us: we'll adjust it and generate it again.
