Hey Howdy Hey Carlos and welcome to planDisney!
Thank you so much for stopping by with your questions about Lightning Lane Entry selections. I would be happy to give you a little more information on when you can book your Lightning Lane Entry selections.
When it comes to Lightning Lanes, two types are available to you. The first one, we can think about as the "standard"
Lightning Lane is available with the purchase of
Genie+. This option gives you access to most attractions throughout all of the Walt Disney World theme parks for the day. When you purchase Genie+ for the day of your park visit, anyone can make their first Lightning Lane Entry selection starting at 7:00 AM EST regardless of where they may be staying. The next time you can make another Lightning Lane Entry selection would be 2 hours after the park officially opens to the public or after your tap into your first Lightning Lane Entry selection, whichever comes first.
The second option you would have is the a la carte option being
Individual Lightning Lane Entry. With this option, you do not have to purchase Genie+ and it is available on its own. The attractions that have this option are the super popular attractions in each park such as
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind in EPCOT. Guests staying onsite at a Disney Resorts Collection hotel or other select hotels can make their purchases starting at 7:00 AM EST on the day of their park visit. Other select hotels are noted online being Walt Disney World Swan Hotel, Walt Disney World Dolphin Hotel and Shades of Green Resort. Guests staying at resorts other than these will be able to make their first Individual Lightning Lane purchase starting at the official park opening time.
I hope this information was helpful for you to better plan your trip and note when you can make your Lightning Lane Entry and Individual Lightning Lane purchases. Please feel free to stop back with any further questions you may have, we would be happy to help!
Have a Magical Day,
Nick
