Aimed primarily at younger Walt Disney Studios guests, Flying Carpets Over Agrabah is very similar to the Dumbo the Flying Elephant and Orbitron attractions at neighbouring Disneyland Paris. The ride’s backstory is based around the Genie character from “Aladdin” becoming a movie director, with riders becoming extras in a flying carpet scene.

Guests board one of sixteen carpet-themed gondolas, which circle around a central “lamp”. Riders can control the height of their carpets using a lever, in much the same way as they can on Dumbo and Orbitron.
