Hi Paige!
Welcome to planDisney! As my friend Princess Tiana would say, you're
Almost There—almost to your Walt Disney World Resort vacation, that is! My family likes to purchase
Lightning Lane passes during our park visits to help us make the most of our time, and I'm happy to share more with you about checking availability.
Paige, Lightning Lane Multi Pass entry is offered for the following rides and attractions at
Disney's Hollywood Studios:
- Alien Swirling Saucers
- Beauty and the Beast - Live on Stage
- Disney Jr. Play and Dance!
- For the First Time in Forever: A Frozen Sing-Along Celebration
- Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular!
- Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway
- Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run
- Muppet*Vision 3D
- Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith
- Slinky Dog Dash
- Star Tours - The Adventures Continue
- The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror
- Toy Story Mania!
As a reminder, Lightning Lane Multi Pass allows you to select three attractions for expedited entry before the day of your park visit. At Hollywood Studios, you'll find these attractions are offered in different groups, and you can select one "Group One" attraction and two "Group Two" attractions as your initial choices. Once you tap into your first Lightning Lane entry of the day, you then unlock the ability to add additional Lightning Lane selections with the "use one, get one" benefit of the system, based on availability.
Additionally, Lightning Lane Singe Pass entry is offered for
Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance. To access this particular attraction via Lightning Lane, you will need to purchase a separate pass just for this ride. A standby line is available for this attraction as well, and I also noticed they had a single-rider entrance offered during my recent visit, but this may not always be available.
Your
My Disney Experience Mobile App allows you to check the latest Lightning Lane availability for your visit on December 28, 2024, before committing to your purchase. In the app, you should see the option to purchase Lightning Lane passes at the top of your screen. It may seem like you're committing to a purchase right away as you select the "purchase" button and then choose your date and park on the next screens, but you will be able to make your three pre-arrival selections with Multi Pass or view available return times for Lightning Lane Single Pass before clicking your final step to complete your purchase.
It's also worth noting that availability can sometimes change throughout the day as other Guests may cancel or change their Lightning Lane plans, and rides that were previously unavailable may start showing return times listed again. This happened to us several times during our visit earlier this month, so I'd encourage you to continue checking your app for the latest information on which rides and attractions are available both before your visit and during your day in the park.
Paige, I hope this information has been helpful and that you enjoy a wonderful visit to Walt Disney World Resort! If you have any other questions, please stop by to see us again here at planDisney!
Cheers,
Kristi
