You Won't Need A Fast Pass For These Magic Kingdom Attractions

The Magic Kingdom is home to many classic attractions.  It can be tempting to use your FastPass selections to ride these attractions, but it may not be necessary.  Before you set your FastPasses for your next trip, this article will let you know what attractions and why you don’t need to waste a FastPass on them!

1. Magic Carpets of Aladdin

This spinner attraction is located in the middle of Adventureland. It is very similar to Dumbo and allows guests to raise and lower their magic carpet and take in views of the Magic Kingdom. Wait times for this attraction rarely exceed 20 minutes and isn’t a great use of a FastPass. If we are waiting in line for it, we always to make sure to grab a Dole Whip or Citrus Swirl before hopping in line so we can enjoy a delicious treat while we wait.

2.  Mickey’s Philharmagic

Located in Fantasyland, this attraction takes guests into a 4-D experience in a giant movie theatre. The line consistently moves as the show room can accommodate a lot of people. The show itself is about 10 minutes long, so if you miss a show, you will only have to wait a small amount of time. Don’t skip out on this attraction – we love the show, music, and the ability to get off our feet for a little bit in the middle of our day at the Magic Kingdom.

3. “it’s a small world”

This attraction can become crowded at certain times of the day (usually early morning and during rain showers), but if you just circle back to the attraction, chances are the line will die down and you’ll be able to board a boat with a minimal 10-15 minute wait. We recommend riding towards the end of the day because Cast Members can allow you to enjoy a second ride if the line isn’t substantial.
