Hi C!
Welcome to planDisney!
You’ll be more than welcome to purchase Lightning Lane Premier Pass for Animal Kingdom and Lightning Lane Multi Pass for Hollywood Studios on the same day (pending availability) since you have a
park hopper ticket. If you really want to go all out with the Lightning Lanes, you could purchase a Lightning Lane Single Pass for
Rise of the Resistance at Hollywood Studios, as well (again, pending availability!). Just make sure that you choose Lightning Lane return times that work well with your itinerary when purchasing Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Single Pass for the second part of your day.
When your
Lightning Lane booking window opens, I highly recommend purchasing Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Single Pass for Hollywood Studios first, then purchasing Lightning Lane Premier Pass for Animal Kingdom. That way, you’ll have a better chance at snagging the Lightning Lane return times you’re hoping for at Hollywood Studios.
Since you’ll be staying off-property, your Lightning Lane booking window will open at 7 AM Eastern, 3 days prior to the start date of your ticket if you have a date-based ticket. You can also modify your Lightning Lane return times leading up to your trip and on your park day if you see something that works better for your schedule.
Of course, you won’t need to worry about return times at all when using Lightning Lane Premier Pass at Animal Kingdom. You’ll just scan into the attraction whenever you’re ready. Premier Pass makes for such a laid-back day!
I hope that helps! If you have any other questions as you continue to plan, feel free to come back and visit us.
