Welcome to planDisney, Karen.
What a wonderful way to spend the
holidays...with a big group of the people you love at the
Walt Disney World Resort. The
decorations, the snacks, and the atmosphere all make for a lovely visit. Did you happen to catch the
announcements that were just made for some of the offerings that will be available for this upcoming holiday season? You can even get
a sneak peek at some of the merchandise and
download some wallpaper to get you all set and ready. After all, we're halfway to the holidays!
One way to avoid long lines for attractions is to purchase the
Disney Genie+ Service. With this service, which you can purchase each day you'd like to use it for whomever would like to use it, you can reserve
Lightning Lanes at included attractions, one at a time, starting a 7 a.m. These Lightning Lanes will give you access to shorter wait times. For the most popular attractions at the resort, you can purchase
Individual Lightning Lanes, which work much in the same way except you are charged per person, per ride, and can purchase up to 2 per person, per day.
Another solution is a
VIP Tour. This is a customizable experience where you get to tour the parks with your own VIP Tour Guide. You'll get to plan with them ahead of time, be whisked from park to park in your own private vehicle (as long as you have the
Park Hopper Option on your ticket), and you'll get to go through some of the Lightning Lane entrances. Pricing ranges depending on the time of year and you must have
valid theme park admission in addition to the tour. Please note that VIP Tours accommodate up to 10 Guests, so since you have 11 people, you would likely need a second VIP Tour Guide. But these are details that you can discuss when you call the number listed on the
Disney Private VIP Tours page.
Karen, enjoy your holiday visit to the resort and spending time with the little ones at the Most Magical Place on Earth! If you have any other questions,
please don't hesitate to reach out.
Ohana means family,
Matt
