Hello Angela! Welcome back to planDisney!
To me, there's nothing better in this world than a hot summer day at
Walt Disney World Resort! Being from Massachusetts, (and currently waiting for snow!) I love to feel the warmth of the Florida sunshine, and I even welcome the possible midday thunderstorms that tend to really clear out the Parks! Don't forget to pack your rain poncho just in case!
The new
Disney Genie+ Service that is available at all four Theme Parks is really helping Guests maximize their time, allowing them to essentially "skip" the lines for more than 40 attractions around the Resort. Guests can expect to have time to wander, snack and enjoy other attractions while waiting for their return time where they'll use the
Lightning Lane to enter the attraction with little to no wait. You can expect to be able to use this service for approximately 2-3 attractions per day. Disney Genie+ Service currently costs $15 per Guest, per day, though prices are always subject to change. I think the best part about having Genie+ is that you can even use it if you have a
Park Hopper Option Theme Park Ticket, making it easier to book Lightning Lane attractions for the evening, before you've even set foot in your second Theme Park of the day!
When it comes to
Individual Lightning Lanes, remember that you don't need to purchase Genie+ to grab your Individual Lightning Lane for some of the most popular attractions in the Parks. You're correct that
prices change day to day and ride to ride, though it is possible to see the prices daily on your
My Disney Experience mobile app! With this feature, you'll be able to track the prices of Individual Lightning Lane attractions over the course of a few days and see what their price range tends to be. Just open your mobile app, click "View My Day" under the Disney Genie Service bar on the homepage, and then click "Tip Board" at the top of the page. Scroll down to see available times for Genie+ experiences as well as times and prices for Individual Lightning Lane attractions!
I don't know if you noticed, but some of the most sought-after attractions, like
Frozen Ever After and
Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway, are included in Genie+ Service until August 7th, 2022, making Genie+ even more worth it! Did you know you can even book Lightning Lanes for shows and parades like the
Disney Festival of Fantasy Parade? You'll get the perfect view of your favorite character pals as they make their way down Main Street U.S.A.
Happy planning!
