    Where could I buy my lightning pass and when, our reservation is July 13

    Hey there! Hi there, Diane! You are just days away from your visit to the Most Magical Place on Earth. I can already smell the tempting treats in the Main Street Confectionery, and my mouth is watering. It won't be long before my sweet dreams become your reality!

    I am thrilled you stopped by planDisney as you plan how to make the most of your time with Lightning Lane Passes. These help you speed through the lines at some of your favorite attractions.

    If you stay at a Disney Resorts Collection or other qualified hotel, you can purchase Lightning Lane Passes seven days before your arrival for all the days on your theme park ticket (up to 14 days). If you are staying off property, your eligibility begins three days before your trip to the theme parks. If you have a multi-day ticket, you can buy passes for each day on your ticket as soon as your window opens. 

    Lightning Lane Passes are available on the My Disney Experience app starting at 7 a.m. Eastern. 

    To purchase a pass, open the app and select the Lightning Lane Passes section on the home screen.
    You will pick the date, theme park and experiences. Then you will be able to see the available times for the attractions you have selected. Follow the prompts to confirm the selections and complete the purchase. Once you have finished, you can choose to “Plan Another Day” to purchase another pass, or “View My Day” to see your Lightning Lane selections.

    Diane, I hope this helps you plan a trip that is practically perfect in every way. If you have any other questions as you count down the days until Mickey and Minnie welcome you to Walt Disney World, know you have a friend in planDisney!

    See 'Ya Real Soon!
