Quick tips - If staying on property, take advantage of
early theme park entry, take advantage of
Disney Genie+. For theme park visits beginning July 24, 2024,
Lightning Lane Multi Pass will replace Disney Genie+ service, and Lightning Lane Single Pass will replace individual Lightning Lane entry. Stay Hydrated and Take Breaks. Florida can be hot, so stay hydrated and take breaks to keep everyone energized.
