A minimum is the official “or taller” on each attraction, read Monday 2 November 2026, and the ride words are the official tags; a sentence is the place’s own page. Nothing here says who may ride: Disney does, at the ride.
Rider Switch at Disney's Animal Kingdom
When someone in the group is under a ride’s minimum, or would rather not ride, the group can take turns without queuing twice. At the ride’s entrance, with everyone there, tell a Cast Member you would like Rider Switch. The group splits in two: the first party joins the line and rides, while a Cast Member scans the tickets of the second, which waits outside the line, and says where to come back. When the first party has ridden, up to two from the second ride next through the Rider Switch entrance, without the standby line. If only one person waited, one rider from the first party may ride again with them.
It is there too for a guest with a service animal that cannot board, and for one who cannot manage a particular ride’s queue.
