Hi Sarah! Welcome to planDisney.
It's great to see a fellow planner thinking ahead to their next Disney adventure. Since there is so much to see and experience for
The World's Most Magical Celebration, planning ahead will help you maximize the magic. Every group needs someone like you, Sarah.
So "let's get down to business." If you "wish" to ride as many attractions as possible during your trip, then Disney Genie+ and Individual Lightning Lane entrances are the way to go. Purchasing
Disney Genie+ will allow you to choose the next available arrival window for over 40 Lightning Lane entrances throughout the Parks. After you enjoy the attraction, or two hours after making your selection, you can then choose another Lightning Lane entrance.
Individual Lightning Lane entrances can be purchased for some of the more high-in-demand attractions. You can make up to two Individual Lightning Lane entrance purchases per Guest, per day.
As of today, you can make a reservation for up to twelve Guests for a Lightning Lane arrival window or an Individual Lightning Lane entrance. However, if your party exceeds that number, you can simply assign two or more people in your group to be in charge of making selections. You just need to make sure that each person in your group is linked through Family & Friends on
My Disney Experience. Then have those who are in charge of booking Lightning Lane arrival windows and/or Individual Lightning Lane entrances search for availability at the same time. This way, you can make sure everyone in your group will have the same arrival window, even though you're technically booking multiple groups.
Even in a large group, you can still enjoy the fantastically immersive
Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, the whimsically enjoyable
Remy's Ratatouille Adventure, the wild and thrilling
Kilimanjaro Safaris, and the delightfully nostalgic
Peter's Pan's Flight.
I hope that's helpful, Sarah. I hope you have an enchanting trip.
Mike
