Hello Laura and welcome to planDisney!
You are getting close to your May arrival date! May I be the first to say “welcome home” just a few months early! I love the fact that you are already thinking about making Lightning Lane decisions for your trip!
Guests staying at the
Drury Plaza Hotel Orlando Lake Buena Vista will have to wait to purchase
Lightning Lane passes three days before your park visit.
We recently purchased the
Lightning Lane Multi Pass for
Disney’s Hollywood Studios when my daughter and her boyfriend joined us for a visit from their home in Japan! We wanted to make sure that her boyfriend had the opportunity to experience all the amazing attractions for his first ever visit to Walt Disney World!
When we made our Lightning Lane Multi Pass selections at Disney’s Hollywood Studios we chose
Slinky Dog Dash as our Group One attraction and then selected
Toy Story Mania! and
Alien Swirling Saucers as our Group Two picks, so they were all close by in
Toy Story Land. The key to the Multi Pass is to make sure that once you redeem your first selection of the day that you choose another multi-pass experience as soon as you can! Continue this process throughout the day and based on availability you will be able to enjoy so many of the amazing experiences that Hollywood Studios has to offer! The My Disney Experience Mobile app is like having Mickey’s mouseketools at your fingertips!
The Drury Plaza does offer
Early Theme Park Entry, which is a great way to plan for early “rope drop” days! You can beat the crowds before the park officially opens for other guests and get a chance to enjoy some of your favorite attractions without having to have a Lightning Lane! You will want to check with the Drury Plaza to confirm when their free shuttle service to the theme parks starts in the morning so you can arrive on time for early entry.
Laura, you are almost ready to pack the Mickey and Minnie Ears and get ready for a magical adventure! Make sure you take the time to enjoy a Mickey Bar or two when you get there!
