7 Things We Love About Alien Swirling Saucers

6. Toy Story meets Alice in Wonderland—kind of.

The ride experience at Alien Swirling Saucers is somewhat reminiscent of a much older Magic Kingdom attraction—the Mad Tea Party at Fantasyland which features pink, purple, turquoise and yellow teacups as ride vehicles. Like the teacups, the spaceships in the Alien Swirling Saucers attraction spin or “swirl,” but unlike the Mad Tea Party teacups, Guests are not in control of the amount or speed of the “swirl,” but we think that’s one of the things that makes this new Toy Story Land attraction so much fun!

5. The queue

The stand-by queue for Alien Swirling Saucers is very colorful and reminds us of some of the artwork in the queue for the Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin attraction in Tomorrowland at Magic Kingdom. Neither of the stand-by or FastPass queues is indoors, as the attraction is completely outside—in Andy’s backyard, of course! But don’t worry, the Imagineers were kind enough to include lots of fans alongside the great artwork inside the queue!

I am a writer and a Mom to four children and two baby shih-tzus. My first experience with the Magic was in 1988, when my parents surprised my brother and me with a visit to Walt Disney World after a short trip to see friends in Georgia. I still hum the tune played during the Main Street Electrical Parade and remember the feeling of excitement from my very first visit. I introduced my husband to the Magic several years ago, and we take our children to the parks every time we can. No matter how many times I visit Walt Disney World, it seems it’s not enough! The ever-changing experience only gets better with each trip, and I’m thrilled to share the Magic with others, as well as some of the tips and tricks to getting the most out of the Magic with each visit!
