    Hello! If we book lightning lanes for our entire stay, but the first park changes to a later date due to weather, what happens with all the lightning lane selections? We have first park Wednesday with others Saturday-Monday but may move the first to Friday

    Welcome to planDisney, Clarissa!

    We're so glad you stopped by with a question for us. I know that many guests are anxious about the impending storm and looking to adjust their plans. I am keeping my fingers crossed that there will be minimal impacts and that you can all enjoy your vacation at Walt Disney World Resort as planned.

    When purchasing Lightning Lane Passes, guests do have the option to modify their selections. Should you decide to switch the date of your visit, change your selected park, or edit one or more of your initial 3 attractions/return windows you can do so, subject to availability. Keep in mind that pricing may be different for your new selections and that you will be required to pay any difference in cost when making modifications.

    Wednesday looks like it will be a wet, blustery day to say the least so I understand why you are thinking about shifting things to Friday. You should be able to make edits within your My Disney Experience Mobile App now, but unfortunately, your existing selections will not automatically transfer when modifying.  Instead, you'll need to make selections from the available pool. My pal Elaine shared some helpful tips here and even indicated that she saw new availability throughout the day on a recent visit. I hope you'll be able to adjust without issue and enjoy everything you originally selected.

    If you experience any tech issues I recommend reaching out to a Cast Member via phone or online chat for more assistance. You can also visit the Guest Experience Team within the parks for troubleshooting and additional questions or concerns.

    Clarissa, I'm wishing you a safe and magical visit this week. Please come back and see us again if we can answer any other planning questions.

    Magic and memories,
    Amy
