Which is Your Favorite Hub and Spoke Ride at Magic Kingdom?

Never let it be said that every idea Disney has for a new ride is original. Today we salute the classic hub and spoke ride design that takes guests round and round and up and down in three different Magic Kingdom Lands!

Vote for your favorite and then tell us why you chose it!

Though I really like the facelift that Dumbo has gotten with it's move to Storybook Circus, The Magic Carpets of Aladdin is my favorite version of this ride. It's not too high, and I just plain love Adventureland.

I voted Magic Carpets as well...DH loves Dumbo and thoroughly enjoyed taking our son on it, but I prefer Adventureland also.

It was a tough choice between Aladdin and Dumbo. I like Dumbo a little more.

Had to go with Dumbo because my nephew just loved that ride so much when we were there in October. The Magic Carpet ride was closed for refurb so we didn't get to give it a go.

I voted for Aladdin, although I love Dumbo, the carpets just seem to suite this type of ride. And it always puts a massive smile on my face. laugh

You forgot Triceratop Spin in AK. That is the only one I've been able to persuade DH to ride - he hates spinning rides, and thinks he's too old to ride Dumbo. With TS, there was no one around, so he gave in and rode it with me. biggrin

I like the look of the new Dumbo the best though, so I'll vote for that one.

I don't do any of them. If they're slow enough not to trigger my motion sickness, they're boring. And we have rides like that closer to home.

I had a tough time deciding between Dumbo and Aladdin. I finally voted for Aladdin based on location.

I voted for Dumbo. I don't go on any of those rides due to motion sickness, but it's the best looking, especially after the makeover.

Finngirl, I think she was just picking the ones in the Magic Kingdom. I also picked Aladdin because of location. It's usually the first land we go to.

I voted for Aladdin because of it's location, the camels, we've never had to wait very long and the 3 of us (me and my 2 dds) can ride together.

Would you believe we have yet to ride Dumbo and Aladdin? eek eek

I didn't vote because the only one we've ridden was Astro Orbiter, and I can't say it's a favorite.

Well, apparently I can't read! Totally missed that. I'm glad I voted for Dumbo at least. biggrin

I voted for Dumbo because if I were to ride one of them it would be Dumbo.

I picked Aladdin because I love Adventureland and I love the movie. I was so disappointed when we missed out on riding it last time. It was open the first night we were there but we decided to save it for another night and then it was closed for refurb the rest of the trip Sad

I am pretty sure Atro Orbiter would be doing better if the line weren't so long. I do admit, it usually isn't worth it. But if you take the line factor out, this one is my favorite. Love seeing the whole park and beyond from here.

I voted for Aladdin. When we were in WDW for my elder son's 5th birthday, the Cast Member let us ride over and over since there was no one waiting in line, and it was my son's favorite part. Smile
