Hey there! Hi there, Noel! I am so glad to see you back at planDisney, where you are as welcome as can be. A lot has changed at
Walt Disney World Resort since the days of FastPasses. Let's get you ready to leave the world of today and immerse in the worlds of tomorrow, yesterday, and fantasy.
There are a few options for programs similar to what you are used to with FastPasses, which are all now
Lightning Lane Passes.
You can purchase a Lightning Lane Multi Pass, giving you access to multiple rides throughout the day. Like the old FastPasses, you select three experiences before your trip. With these, you can pick an additional attraction after you scan into one. Unlike the old days, you do not have to use all three before adding something new. And if your theme park admission includes the Park Hopper option, the additional selections can be in any theme park.
With a Lightning Lane Single Pass, you can skip the standby line for one or more attractions in each theme park. Currently, these include
TRON Lightcycle / Run,
Seven Dwarfs Mine Train,
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind,
Avatar Flight of Passage and
Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance.
To enjoy all the experiences with Lightning Lane entries in a single theme park, you can purchase a
Lightning Lane Premier Pass. This pass lets you enjoy the Lightning Lane entries without scheduling return times. It has the most flexibility to know you will get to enjoy everything and do so at your own pace. Unlike the Multi Pass, however, it is only available for the one theme park you selected when purchasing.
These Lighting Lane passes are available for purchase before your trip. You can get them seven days before if you stay at a Walt Disney World or other qualified resort. If you are staying elsewhere, you can buy them three days before your theme park visit.
A few attractions have
Virtual Queues for access to standby lines. Currently, these are available for Guardians of the Galaxy and
Tiana's Bayou Adventure. The Virtual Queues open at 7 am on the morning of your visit for all Guests, and a second chance opens at 1 pm for people inside the theme park.
There is always more magic than hours with a Disney trip. If you have not been on Guardians of the Galaxy, I would prioritize getting to enjoy this... I don't even know what to call it. It is more than a ride. More than an attraction. It is a mind-blowing experience. Head down the Bayou with Tiana and Mama Odie. And if you have missed the news,
Country Bear Musical Jamboree has a
beary new take on Disney classics!
Noel, if you have any other questions about your trip,
planDisney's commitment to helping you has not changed one bit. We are here for you!
Thinking of the Happiest Things!
