Always ask before getting in line about the parent swap. So many rides have a different procedure of doing the parent swap. For example the new coaster at AK (Yeti) tells you, you must all get in line together and at the ride they will place the child and one parent in a holding/waiting area while the other parent rides. I did not like this since my little one was sleeping, the CM said, I'd have to carry the little one in and wait on line holding him , it was much too long of a wait to stand in line with two little ones, one asleep and the other asking why can't I ride?. So, we took turns on the singles line and that saved us some time and frustration. I was surprised the CM could not give me a pass seeing as the child was sleeping in the stroller All of the rest of the rides we had no problem.
Interesing, we got a rider switch pass at EE several times during our Easter trip this year, April 6th - 15th 2007 and never had to have the toddler wait in line with us. In fact children under the height requirement are not even allowed to enter that queue area. At least not when my dd wanted to ride and I had my neice with me.
I do agree its best to ask but in my experience all the height restricted attractions will give you the rider swtich pass for the second parent to enter via FP. The only exception I have ever run into is Star Tours which always has you switch at the exit.
