Hello David!
Welcome to
planDisney. Your Walt Disney World vacation is just around the riverbend, and with a stay at
Copper Creek at Disney’s Wilderness Resort and
Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge, I am sure you are excitedly putting the finishing touches on your vacation plans. I love that you have made this an annual trip to look forward to every year!
The new
Lightning Lane passes allow you to skip the standby lines to enjoy shorter wait times and the ability to experience even more magic during your theme park visits. As a Disney Resort hotel Guest, you can make your Lightning Lane selections up to 7 days in advance of your stay, for the length of your stay (up to 14 days). This includes the entire duration of your split-stay. So even though you will be changing Disney Resort hotels, you can book Lightning Lane selections for your whole trip once the window opens 7 days before you check in at the first resort. Lightning Lane selections can be booked starting at 7:00 AM Eastern Time.
Split stays are a great way to enjoy the magic of two resorts in one trip! I hope you make the most of what each resort has to offer during your stay. With the wonderful wildlife of Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge and the serene surroundings of Disney’s Wilderness Lodge, you are sure to have a magical vacation at
Walt Disney World Resort. If we can help answer any more of your questions, David, please bring them here to
planDisney. We are all ears!
See ya real soon!
