    I'll be at Disney in July, visiting parks on 23, 24, 26, 27, and 28 and staying at Coronado. With the new Genie+ changes, how will booking work on the 24th? Can I book for 24, and others at 7:00 AM on the 24th? Do I still get Disney guest benefits?

    Hi Beatriz!

    Welcome to planDisney!  Thanks for stopping by with a great question!  There are already so many great benefits to staying in the Disney Resorts Collection and the release of the new Lightning Lane passes adds another perk as resort Guests will be able to make Lightning Lane selections and purchases seven days in advance for the entire length of their stay!  

    Beatriz, the release of the new Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Lightning Lane Singe Pass takes place July 24, 2024 - which just happens to be during your vacation!  On July 23, you'll have the option to continue to use Disney Genie+ as currently available however, when you wake up on July 24, you'll find the new Lightning Lane passes available for purchase in your My Disney Experience Mobile App beginning at 7:00 AM.  Since you are a Guest staying at a hotel in the Disney Resorts Collection, you should be able to make your selections and purchase any desired Lightning Lane passes not only for July 24 but for the remainder of your stay!  As a reminder, even with these changes to selecting and purchasing Lightning Lane entries, the Virtual Queue process will remain unchanged with options available to join the Virtual Queue for select attractions at both 7:00 AM and 1:00 PM each day.

    I'm sure you'll have a wonderful time enjoying all of the attractions and entertainment offered in the parks, but I hope you also save a little time to check out everything Disney's Coronado Springs Resort has to offer as well.  When I stayed here a few years ago, the Dig Site was one of my favorite places to relax and unwind with the Lost City of Cibola pool being one of my favorite spots on property.  We also enjoyed the dining options around the resort!  Toldeo - Tapas, Seafood, & Steak is always a popular choice, but don't overlook more casual choices like Rix Sports Bar and Grill.  The "Watchos" (waffle fry nachos - yummy!) and a burger make for a great meal and I love that they have the option to substitute a plant-based patty on both of their burgers.

    Beatriz, I hope this information helps as you continue your countdown to your trip later this month!  Please stop by to see us again here at planDisney if you have any other questions!

    See ya real soon!
