    We are planning to visit Animal Kingdom in the morning and Epcot later that day. If we do not book Lightning Lane passes for Animal Kingdom, can we go ahead and book them for Epcot for later in the day even though we’ll go to AK first?

    Welcome to planDisney, Katie!

    Your wonderful Spring Disney Day is coming up VERY soon, how exciting! I love your plan to visit Animal Kingdom in the morning, and then EPCOT later in the day. So let's talk about a Lightning Lane pass strategy for you.

    To answer your question, yes! You may purchase Lightning Lane passes for just EPCOT, even if visiting Animal Kingdom first that day. If you are staying at a Disney Resort, you can make your Lightning Lane reservations starting 7 days prior to check-in, at 7:00 am Eastern Time. If you are an off-site guest, you can do so 3 days prior to your park day. Just log on to the My Disney Experience app, and make sure your party's theme park tickets are all linked ahead of time.

    My family's absolute favorite attraction at Disney World is Guardians of the Galaxy, it's a must-do!! Having a Lightning Lane Single Pass to skip the stand by queue is a big time saver.

    You have a terrific park hopping plan, Katie. Going to Animal Kingdom early is the day is always so fun, as the animals seem more active and lively! Some of my favorite Disney Parks food is found here, so I hope you have time to sneak in lunch. My top recommendation would be Pandora's Satu'li Canteen... their entree bowls are so delicious, and you have to try the amazing Blueberry Cream Cheese Mousse for dessert!

    I hope this helps you plan your magical park day. Please visit me again at planDisney if you have any additional questions.

    See ya' real soon!
