Welcome back to planDisney, Nadine. I’m so excited for your upcoming trip! You’re going to have a blast!
As you’ve likely discovered,
Lightning Lane Multi Pass and
Lightning Lane Single Pass can be great ways to save time when visiting the
Walt Disney World Resort. With each, you’ll get access to a shorter wait at so many different attractions across the four theme parks. And once you use a Multi Pass selection, you can book another that’s available. With all the time you save, there will be plenty of time for
snacking,
shopping, and just taking in the incredible details of this truly amazing place.
Just like Sorcerer Mickey in
The Sorcerer’s Apprentice, having access to powerful magic is exciting, but casting too many spells at once can quickly lead to chaos. While the system
may allow you to use different devices to purchase multiple passes for different dates, it is not recommended. Instead, if possible, have some other Guests connected to your reservation through your
Family & Friends list help you out. Assign each person a day (or days) and when the clock strikes 7 a.m. EST, when you’re eligible to make your purchases, go for it! This way, you’ll be the masters, not the apprentices.
Otherwise, you can quickly make your selections on your device for one day, complete the process, and then go for the next day. In my experience, it typically takes no more than five minutes to book Lightning Lanes for each day, and then I move on. A little restraint and coordination will help you stay in control of the magic, rather than being swept up by it.
One more quick note for you: each Guest can only book Lightning Lane Multi Pass reservations in one park per day in advance. However, if your ticket has the
Park Hopper Option, when you go to book your next Lightning Lane after using one on the day of your visit, you can select an eligible and available attraction in
any of the four theme parks. Furthermore, each Guest can book up to two Lightning Lane Single Passes per day.
One last option is
Lightning Lane Premier Pass, which will give you access to all of the Lightning Lanes in one park (including both Multi Pass and Single Pass selections) in a day without having to make reservations. That’s right, you’d be able to join the Lightning Lane queues at all of the eligible attractions in a single park at any time during that day. Now,
that’s Sorcerer-level access!
