    If my child is 2 years old, can I not purchase lighting lane passes for him? I’m trying it pre purchase but it says he is not eligible without a reservation but he I free so doesn’t need a ticket ?

    Hi there, Katie. Welcome to planDisney! 

    As Mickey Mouse would say, "Oh, boy!" I am so excited to hear that you'll be bringing your little one to The Most Magical Place on Earth in just a few days! I am a Gigi to a toddler granddaughter who is under three years old. Seeing her smile when she met Minnie Mouse and hugged the princesses was such a magical moment. I can't wait for you to experience that magic through your little Mouseketeer's eyes!

    Katie, I see that time is of the essence since you're purchasing your Lightning Lanes today, so let's do the Hot Dog Dance and get right to your question!

    Since your little one is two years old, they are considered an honored Guest of Mickey Mouse and do not require a theme park ticket. YAY! I have more good news for you! Because your child doesn't need a theme park ticket to enter the parks, they also do not need to purchase Lightning Lanes. When we visited the parks with our two-year-old, all of us with theme park tickets and Lightning Lane reservation times entered the Lightning Lane queues, scanned in, and our two-year-old joined us in these lines without any issues.

    Katie, I hope you and your family have a magical time! While I would love to share all my tips for using Lightning Lanes, recommendations for dining spots, or how much my granddaughter loved her bubble wand, I understand that you're in a hurry for this information, so please feel free to reach out again if you need any further tips, help, or advice. You are always as welcome as can be here at planDisney! Enjoy every special moment! 

    See ya real soon,
