    Are there any plans to open up Premier Pass in the near future? I was able to use it unexpectedly in January and Loved every minute!! I’m planning to bring my family and fur kids later this year and stay offsite for cost savings.

    Hey there, Candi!

    Welcome to planDisney! Thank you for your fantastic question. Every day is a good day when you're wearing Mickey ears, but adding a Lightning Lane Premier Pass is like sprinkling pixie dust on top of pixie dust mixed with a bit of Blue Fairy magic! 

    Like you, I also recently tried the Lightning Lane Premier Pass for the first time at EPCOT and Hollywood Studios. If you don't mind, I'll borrow your words..... I absolutely LOVED every minute of it, too! My husband and I always track how much we walk during our visits to Disney Parks. We like to think that all that walking burns enough calories for some extra DOLE Whips! Did you know that at EPCOT, because we were able to circle the park once—riding each attraction as we passed without needing an arrival window—we actually walked 6,000 steps less than usual? Although we burned fewer calories, it was okay because we still enjoyed the extra DOLE Whips on our trip anyway, with no guilt! I totally understand why you love this experience. 

    Unfortunately, I don't have any information about when this service may open to Guests not staying onsite. However, a friend and fellow panelist, Lizzie, pointed out in a recent question that the Lightning Lane Premier Pass webpage mentions they are "piloting the rollout of Lightning Lane Premier Pass with very limited quantities." So, we don't yet know what changes may be made as this service becomes more established. My advice is to keep an eye on the Disney Parks Blog for the most up-to-date future updates. 

    Candi, please stop by planDisney again when you plan your future trip this year. We're dedicated to helping you experience the magic! 

    Faith, trust, and pixie dust!
