Hi, Daniel! Welcome to planDisney! I always love it when my Florida friends stop by for a visit!
It looks like you'll be hopping over to the Walt Disney World Resort very soon. If you ask me, that's one of the best things about living in the Sunshine State. In fact, I think I may need to take a little magical road trip myself!
My family definitely made use of FastPass+ to make our Disney days work with our schedules. As
the Walt Disney World Resort began its reopening process last summer, however, FastPass+ was suspended. Now
we've just gotten the news that FastPass+ has officially been retired to make way for a brand new way to organize your Disney plans called Disney Genie!
It looks like your next visit will be happening before
Disney Genie launches in the fall, so you'll just hop in the standby queues to ride your favorite attractions for now. But since you live in Florida, I'm sure you'll have a chance to check it out soon. Disney Genie will allow Guests like us to create custom itineraries based on our favorite Walt Disney World experiences, along with tip boards, mobile food ordering, real-time help from a virtual assistant, and more!
You'll also be able to add Disney Genie+ to your tickets for access to the Lightning Lane, which lets you zip through the queue at many attractions. With your Disney Genie+ purchase, you'll select one attraction to hop aboard at the next available time. After you ride, you can select another attraction, and continue throughout the day. Lightning Lane access will also be available for purchase separately for some of the most popular attractions in the theme parks.
Disney Genie and Disney Genie+ will give you lots of flexibility for planning your future Disney days, Daniel. For more details, you can
check out this video with an overview of Disney Genie Service on the Disney Parks YouTube channel. There's also a
video that features some of your planDisney pals asking questions about Disney Genie for our Guests!
I hope this helps you plan lots of fun Disney trips to come, Daniel. Have a blast, and please come see us again real soon!
Keep Disney Dreaming,
Kathy K.
