    We have a Disney 14 day pass but my family are wanting to only come to Epcot and potentially animal kingdom. Is there anyway they can buy individual lightening lane if they buy tickets on the day at the park? We are wanting them to join our plans if poss

    Hiya, Charlee! 

    Thanks for stopping by planDisney to discuss your upcoming visit to The Most Magical Place on Earth. I always feel that these visits have a bit more pixie dust when experienced with those you love most, so I'm delighted to hear that your family will be joining you at Walt Disney World Resort! EPCOT and Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park happen to be my two favorite Walt Disney World destinations, so I'd love to help you maximize the magic of your family's experience! 

    Your family will be able to purchase a 1-Day or 2-Day Theme Park Ticket (with or without the Park Hopper Option) once they arrive in the United States through the Walt Disney World Resort website or the My Disney Experience app. If they are unsure of the exact date within your 14-day window they would like to accompany you then they are more than welcome to purchase tickets at a ticket window once they arrive at a Walt Disney World Resort theme park. While they will still have the option to purchase Lighting Lane Multi Pass and Lighting Lane Single Pass even if they purchase their tickets the day they plan to visit the theme parks, same-day availability for the most popular attractions might be limited, so I suggest purchasing the tickets in advance if possible to maximize the value of a Lightning Lane purchase. 

    As a reminder, Lightning Lane passes are available for purchase 7 days before check-in for Guests of Disney Resort hotels (and a few select others) and 3 days before all other Guests plan to visit Walt Disney World Resort. For maximum availability, I highly recommend purchasing Lightning Lane Single Pass or Multi Pass as soon as you are able. Of course, should your family need to wait to make their purchases, all hope is not lost! In my experience, Lighting Lane entries for even the most popular attractions can be secured same-day by refreshing the app periodically. Availability is constantly updated as people change their plans, so be persistent!

    I hope this was helpful for you as you plan your magical vacation. If you are in need of additional information or suggestions, feel free to stop back by. I'm always happy to help!

    Thinking Happy Thoughts,
