    With the new lightning lane replacing Genie +, does everyone on a reservation have to purchase it or can individuals purchase it?

    Hey Howdy Hey Renee and welcome back to planDisney!

    There is so much excitement going on right now at the Walt Disney World Resort as the new Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Lightning Lane Single Pass options have come online. While the process continues to be refined, they will help Guests plan their vacations in advance to have some of their experiences ready for their Enchanting vacation. There were and still are a lot of questions as these products roll out but I will be happy to give you the most up-to-date information to help answer your question. 

    As far as purchasing goes, when you are all set to purchase your Lightning Lane selections, you should be able to select which Guests in your party you would like to buy either option for. Not everyone in the party may be as thrill-seeking as others and some may not appreciate the classics, your options with the purchase of these products will reflect the flexibility. 

    One other really cool option with Lightning Lane Multi Pass is the flexibility. After you make your selections, you can go into your My Disney Experience app to modify the times, pending availability. This will allow you to maximize your time in the parks and mold your day how you want it to look. It can be super helpful with things such as fireworks or parades that you may forget about when making your selections but remember after so you can change the arrival windows of your experiences. 

    Friendly reminder that the window to purchase either Lightning Lane option will open for Guests staying onsite at a Disney Resorts hotel or other qualifying resort 7 days in advance. All other Guests will have their shot 3 days before their date of arrival. 

    I hope this information is helpful so you can better plan your strategy for purchasing and booking your Lightning Lanes. If you have any other questions, please let us know, we are always happy to help!

    To Infinity and Beyond, 

    Nick
