Hey there, Michael! Welcome back to planDisney! It warms my heart to see that we've been able to help you with so many Walt Disney World Resort vacations over the years. After all, that's what we planDisney panelists do best!
Michael, it sounds like you're thinking of kicking the tires on the new
Lightning Lane feature that Disney just rolled out. It's going to be such a time saver when you're planning your Disney day!
When you purchase access to
individual Lightning Lane entrances for the attractions that offer it, you can indeed select attractions in different theme parks as long as you have the
Park Hopper Option added to your tickets. Since you're a
Disney Resorts Collection hotel Guest, you can hop into the
Disney Genie section of your My Disney Experience mobile app beginning at 7 a.m. to schedule your experiences for that day. The app should offer times for eligible attractions in your first park (in this case, Disney's Animal Kingdom Park). Then, if you look at options for subsequent parks, the available times should begin after park hopping opens at 2 p.m. Just remember that you can only purchase two individual Lightning Lane selections per day, and that you can't select the same attraction twice. Also, you can still make Lightning Lane selections for other attractions in addition to your individual purchases
if you've added Disney Genie+ to your day.
Disney has so many ways for us to plan a practically perfect vacation, Michael! I'm excited for you to
explore the moon of Pandora and then
join the Resistance on Batuu. You're definitely in for some out-of-this-world adventures!
Thank you so much for coming back to see your planDisney pals, Michael. Have an amazing vacation, and we'll see ya real soon!
Keep Disney Dreaming,
Kathy K.
