Santa's Sled

The Magic Sleigh Ride is a Santa Claus-themed excursion, found on the Night Club Rooftop during the Christmas Party 2009. Segregated only for members, it consists of a giant sleigh with a sack of presents at the back and a control panel in the front. Players can earn a Santa Suit if they achieve the goal of accurately delivering fifteen presents.

After all the presents are delivered into chimneys of igloos, the Sleigh returns to the Night Club Rooftop, and players are awarded a Santa Suit if they won. The circuit then continues.

Tour guide Description
If you are giving a tour on the Sleigh, the Tour Guide Description is:

"Ho Ho Ho! We are on the Sleigh! Help drive the sleigh with the Controls, And press the red buttons to drop presents into the Chimmneys!"

The Ride
The Sleigh starts off on the Night Club Rooftop, where you are taught the main controls of the sleigh. You can actually stop the demonstration by immediately pressing Fly, or wait for the demonstration to finish and then it will fly. During the Countdown, you can stop it and get off the Sleigh by pressing Land. After the Countdown, the Sleigh will take off and you can start delivering the presents. You deliver the Presents by pressing the Present Release button when a chimney is near the hole in the Sack of toys. The Igloos are based on the current Christmas Igloos from the Igloo Upgrades Catalog, which are the Snow Globe Igloo, Basic Igloo, Candy Igloo, Deluxe Igloo, Deluxe Candy Igloo and Gingerbread House Igloo. As soon as one has delivered all fifteen presents, a Santa Suit will be availiable for a limited time. If you already have it, a Seasonal Message will appear. The Circuit then continues, though some penguins press Land after completing the Ride. If you land, it will land on the Night Club. It is unknown how you go back where you started, as you go forward. And when you land, you get back on the Night Club Rooftop, and if you start the circuit again, it starts like when you first started.

Real World Comparison
In real life, this sled would be a big epic failure since the wires which are tangled on one of the sled's blades would eventually tear apart every time the sled decsends back on the rooftop of the Night Club. Although this is only a "virtual sleigh", CP should have hid the wires to make it more "real".

Trivia

 * The event is similar to the Hot Air Balloon Ride due to the countdown panel and the Present-count.

 * The only free item given to you when you finish dropping all 15 presents is the Santa Suit.
