TRANSCRIPT: Welcome to Attraction Checklist. I can show you the world.Shining, shimmering, splendid.  That's because on today's episode we're going to ride The Magic Carpets of Aladdin at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom.

The Magic Carpets of Aladdin opened at Magic Kingdom on Wednesday, May 23, 2001. 2.  While similar to Dumbo the Flying Elephant which we covered in Attraction Checklist Episode #164, each carpet  vehicle of The Magic Carpets of Aladdin can hold more than two riders. 3. The riders in the front of the magic carpet can control how high each carpet can soar into the air. 4. The Magic Carpets of Aladdin inspired two similar versions of the attraction in other Disney Parks.  Flying Carpets Over Agrabah in Disneyland Paris and Jasmine's Flying Carpets at the Tokyo Disney Resort. 5. The infamous spitting golden camels at the entrance to the attraction had a former life as part of a flat in the Aladdin's Royal Caravan Parade that ran from 1992 to 1995.

In 2011, Fantasyland went under construction and as part of it, the Dumbo attraction was relocated and updated with a entire second carousel and an interactive queue. 5.
