I've also done the frequent trips, and LONG LIVE THE TTA! It is one of the best at Disney.

Can you stay on the TTA if nobody is waiting when your ride ends?

When our son was about that age, we used to ride it for his naps. CoP is another good napping place for little ones as well as the American Adventure. Have a fun trip!

Here's a link to a very fast (FAST as in about 1 minute!) ride on the TTA that I shot and cut together.
At the very end, you can hear the CM ask us, "are you guys gonna go around again?"
Sorry that the quality must be so reduced for posting on the web-

Stay-on repeat rides aren't allowed (or possible) on PotC in the Magic Kingdom.
Perhaps you were thinking of Small World? Or perhaps Pirates in Disneyland? Pirates in Disneyland loads and unloads at the same point, so if there's no line I'm sure they'd allow you to go around again. But on Pirates in Florida, after unload the boats go through a backstage area and lift hill before returning empty to the load platform. (They also go through a VERY low archway when coming out at the load platform... You'd have to be laying flat in the boat to make it through)

Not to worry. The archway at the unload platform is tall enough for a person to go through. There's just a heavy flap of some sort hanging down to the level of the top of the boats. It's some sort of vinyl or plastic. It wouldn't injure you if you went into it. I also wouldn't be surprised if there's a sensor attached to that flap so that if something in the boat pushed it out of the way (like a person sitting in the boat), it would E-stop the ride.

There are photocells, but i dont know if any are positioned that high up to see an object that shouldnt be there pass through.

I know my dad rode it for at least an hour straight when my little brother was just a few months old. It was the perfect way to get him asleep, and I think its commonly used for that purpose by parents.

This reminds me of the time when we were about to ride the Haunted Mansion. We passed through the stretch rooms and into the queue area. As we were about to step on the conveyor belt to get into our Doom Buggies, we saw 2 teenagers coming around from the unload area! They must have exited from their Doom Buggy at the end of the ride, then jumped back on when the CM wasn't looking! They got away with it too, because the CM at the load area did not notice as they passed by her from the backstage area!
I'm suprised that it doesn't happen more often..

That's actually standard procedure. Guests with disabilities (wheel chairs, crutches, etc) are loaded into the vehicle at unload since it's less crowded and there's more room for the chair. Also, if crowds are really light the CMs have been known to let people just keep on riding if they want to.
