About Aladdin's Magic Carpet Ride® Attraction

Take a flight of fancy aboard your very own magic carpet. Inspired by the Disney animated classic, "Aladdin," this whimsical spin above Adventureland® is filled with ups and downs as you control both the pitch and height of the flight. It's better than getting three wishes!

Magic Carpets of Aladdin loads very slowly, so even a short line can take more time than you’d like to spend. Unless it’s during off-peak season, save this one for later in the day or evening. This attraction is great for little ones like Lily, but the entire family goes on it at least once every trip.

Magic Carpets of Aladdin is a midway-style ride much like Dumbo The Flying Elephant and TriceraTop Spin. The duration of the ride is about 1 ½ minutes. Each ride vehicle accommodates a total of four people with 2 in the front and 2 in the back. The front seat controls the height of the flying carpet. The back seat controls the forward and back pitch. (Most groups of four split and ride on two separate vehicles.) Guests must transfer from their motorized scooter or ECV to an available wheelchair to experience the attraction. Children under the age of 7 years must be accompanied by a person age 14 years or older.

Watch for spitting camels. This is one of the most recent attractions in Adventureland, having opened in 2001. You can hear the music from "Aladdin" while flying on your carpet. The movie's music won the Oscar® for best original score of 1992.

This interactive attraction has a lever at the front. If you are in the front seat, the lever controls the height that carpet flies. If you are in the back seat, the lever controls the carpet's pitching forward and back.

The Magic Carpets of Aladdin opened on May 23, 2001. The centerpiece is a giant Genie’s bottle adorned with characters from the Disney animated film Aladdin.
