    If we are going to purchase the lighting pass, does 2 years old have to purchase one

    Welcome back to planDisney Debra! Thanks for reaching out with your question. I'm excited to help you! How wonderful that you're planning a trip to Walt Disney World Resort! You’re sure to create some amazing memories at The Most Magical Place on Earth!

    Children under 3 years old do not require a park ticket, which includes not needing to purchase a Lightning Lane Pass for them. This makes it easier for families with little ones, as you won’t need to worry about getting a pass for every member of the family.

    For attractions that have height restrictions or are more popular, only the adults and older children in your group would need a Lightning Lane pass to skip the regular lines. If your 2 year old is able to ride with an adult (and meets the height requirements), they can join in the fun without needing a separate pass. When it comes to attractions, your child can accompany you in the ride as long as they don't exceed the height limit or have any other restrictions, and your Lightning Lane pass will cover them when you ride together.

    This also means that if your 2 year old doesn’t meet the height requirement for certain attractions, you can still use the Lightning Lane for the adults or older kids, and your little one will still get to enjoy the time in the park without needing to worry about tickets or passes for them. This is a great way to make the experience smoother for families with young children, and it's one of the perks that makes Disney visits a bit easier with toddlers.

    I hope this information helps you prepare for an exciting visit to Walt Disney World Resort, Debra! Please feel free to reach out to me directly with any further questions you may have. Thank you again for visiting planDisney. We'll see ya real soon!
