Hey there, Jessica! As a fellow Sunshine State resident, I'd be happy to help you today. Don't you love being Mickey's neighbor? You'll be on your
Walt Disney World Resort adventure soon, so let's talk about how you can zip through attractions like lightning.
Lightning Lane Premier Pass is a fabulous way to streamline your theme park day. Since you don't have to book specific return windows with this pass, you can wipe out all the eligible rides in one area of the park before moving on to the next. No need to race back and forth! For these reasons, I think you'll be able to mark nearly everything off your must-do list, but let's talk strategy.
My pal Shonette used this pass last year and confirmed that you can scan in for attractions
during Early Theme Park Entry. So if you're staying at a Disney Resort Hotel, my first tip is to set your alarm and start your day early.
Another tip is to make a list of your must-do attractions by area. For example, if
Mickey's PhilharMagic isn't a priority for your group, save it for later. Do all the other Fantasyland attractions that are important to you, and if you feel like you made good time, hang out with Sorcerer Mickey and his number one pal Donald before you move on to Frontierland.
Once you scan in at a Lightning Lane entrance, you'll still wait a bit for most rides. That's the unpredictable factor that could slow you down. If you see a long line for the Lightning Lane, I suggest skipping that one and coming back later.
Since I don't know what the crowds will be like or which theme park you'll be using the pass for, I can't guarantee how many attractions you'll be able to experience before the park closes for the special event. But if you start early and have a strategy in place, I think you'll be able to accomplish a ton! I'm sprinkling a cloud of pixie dust your way for a practically perfect day.
Jessica, please come back to
planDisney anytime. I'd love to hear how your day goes using the pass. Enjoy your visit!
Magic awaits,
Elaine
