Hi Katie. Thank you so much for reaching out to planDisney!
You are my kind of planner! I am
all about strategizing and maximizing my time in the Walt Disney World Resort theme parks. And
Disney Genie+,
Individual Lightning Lanes, and
Virtual Queues help me do just that. This way, I have more time to ride rides, snack around the parks, or shop for merchandise.
I'm very happy to report that the answer to your question is yes! At 7 a.m., you will be able to try to reserve a Boarding Group through the Virtual Queue, make your first Lightning Lane reservation through Disney Genie+,
and buy an Individual Lightning Lane since you are a Guest at a
Disney Resorts Collection Hotel. In fact, if you wanted to, you could buy two Individual Lightning Lanes at that time since Guests are allowed to purchase two of those selections per person, per day.
Before your trip, make sure that everyone in your travel party is linked through the
My Family & Friends list. Also, ensure that you have a
Theme Park Reservation for
Magic Kingdom Park as that is the only way you'll be able to join the Virtual Queue for
TRON Lightcycle / Run Presented by Enterprise.
On the day of your trip, before 7 a.m., purchase Disney Genie+ for every member of your party who wants to use the service through the
My Disney Experience mobile app. Also, select your Boarding Group party that wants to ride TRON. At 7 a.m. on the dot, you should aim to get your Virtual Queue spot first as they usually fill up the quickest. Then, immediately switch to purchasing your Individual Lightning Lane for
Seven Dwarfs Mine Train. Afterward, make your reservation for
Peter Pan's Flight.
If there is more than one adult in your party, you should both try to get into the Virtual Queue on your own devices. Then, divide and conquer with one person purchasing the Individual Lightning Lane and the other going through Disney Genie+. If you are unable to secure a Boarding Group in the morning, keep in mind that you'll have another chance at 1 p.m. However, you have to be in the park to join this time around. Keep in mind that if all else fails, you can purchase an Individual Lightning Lane for TRON if it's available. I tend to do this as I like to ride the attraction at night and that's the only way you can potentially choose your return time.
Katie, I'm so excited for you to
experience the Grid for the first time. It's such a great addition to Magic Kingdom Park. If you have any other questions, please
reach out to me again!
End of line,
Matt
