Hello Randall!
Welcome to planDisney!
Disney’s Genie service will be complimentary to all Guests and will be your go-to way to plan your park day. Let Genie know your interests and must-do attractions and the system will lead you through the day, along with real-time wait data to make the most of your park experience! Then, Guests will be able to take their day to the next level with the purchase of the Disney's Genie+ option, as well as individual attraction purchases. With Genie+, Guests will be able to choose access, one attraction at a time, to the Lighting Lane which will offer faster than typical waits!
I know many of us are anxious to know when Disney Genie+ will be launching. (Including me!) I was hoping there would be an announcement this past weekend for the kick-off of Walt Disney World’s 50th Anniversary Celebration, but for the moment, we are still waiting. As of this writing, Mickey still hasn’t told us when to expect Genie+ to be available for purchase, other than we expect it to launch this fall. Stay tuned to the
Disney Parks Blog for all the latest announcements as that is where the news will hit first. I find following them, and the Walt Disney World Resort on social media channels is the easiest way to stay up-to-date with the latest and most magical information.
Happy Planning!
