Reservations.

Believe it or not!  You can allocate Ride times to beat the crowds if you book up 90 days before your trip!

Ride Reservations are available through a ride reservation system called Disney's FastPass. There are certain restrictions such that it is applicable only to certain rides. It is definitely something worth investigating as it saves a lot of time and on busy days and peak times of year it will save the family needless frustration!!

Ride Restrictions.

See individual attractions for specifications. However as a general note, the minimum age to ride alone on any Magic Kingdom attraction is 7 years old.
