Hi there, April. Welcome to planDisney.
In the words of Lightning McQueen, "Ka-Chow!" Before I answer your question, let me buckle my seatbelt and pull on my yellow safety tab because you are putting the pedal to the metal and gearing up for an epic Disney day! I love it!
Ready, set... let's GO straight to your question! I'm happy to report that you will absolutely be able to purchase a
Lightning Lane Premier Pass! I recently purchased a Lightning Lane Premier Pass for EPCOT, and it was amazing to race through the park at my speed with no pre-selected arrival windows. Let me drive you through the process of purchasing your pass.
Guests staying at a Disney Resort hotel or other select hotel can purchase a Premier Pass seven days before their arrival date. If you are staying off-site, you will need to wait three days before your theme park visit. These passes will become available on your
My Disney Experience app at 7 AM. When you buy your pass, you will be asked which theme park you wish to purchase (Animal Kingdom or EPCOT).
Additionally, if you wish to plan ahead, prices are visible on the My Disney Experience app 21 days in advance. To check pricing, open your app, and on the home page, you'll find the purchase options for "Lightning Lane Premier Pass." Click the purchase button, select your desired date, and you'll be able to see the corresponding price.
April, you are going to have a wild time in Animal Kingdom, and while you are racing through EPCOT, I hope you'll have some time to explore the
EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival. This is one of my favorite festivals! You'll find the flowers blooming, butterflies fluttering, and the most delicious Outdoor Kitchens with the freshest flavors. There is no extra cost to enjoy this festival as it is included in your theme park ticket!
I'm so happy you raced over to planDisney with your question. Follow us on
Instagram! We hope to see ya again real soon-we are always here to help!
Enjoy the magic,
Shonette
