    We are travelling to Disney next week, staying on the resort. I’m seeing so much conflicting information on booking lightening lane while outside the country. Can we book 7 days in advance while still in Canada? Thanks!!

    Hi Jordan, and thanks for bringing your question to planDisney! I used Lightning Lane Multi Pass on a trip with my friends last month and it was such a time saver. Less time waiting in line means more time for all the Mickey-shaped snacks!

    So, I’m happy to confirm that Canadian guests staying at a Disney Resort hotel can purchase Lightning Lane Passes up to seven days ahead of your check-in date, for your length of stay (up to 14 days). Booking opens at 7:00 A.M. Eastern Time so don’t be late for this very important date! This is a great perk because it gives you a better chance at snagging those popular Lightning Lane attractions like Slinky Dog Dash and Tiana’s Bayou Adventure!

    Speaking of perks, Lightning Lane Multi Pass also comes with complimentary digital downloads of select attraction photos and videos. My favorites are the ones on attractions with large ride vehicles, like Frozen Ever After and Pirates of the Caribbean, where you can get an action shot with your whole crew. My family loves these pictures more than our posed photos in front of Cinderella Castle!

    To be sure your Lightning Lane booking day goes as smoothly as possible, download the My Disney Experience app and double-check that your theme park tickets are linked to your MyDisney account. In the app, go to ≡ in the lower right corner and then press My Tickets & Passes. 

    I’m so excited for your trip next week! This is one of the most beautiful times to visit Disney World because EPCOT will be covered in colorful plants for the Flower & Garden Festival. I love looking for all the Disney character topiaries around the park and trying the different food from the Outdoor Kitchens (my favorite is the frozen desert violet lemonade from Pineapple Promenade). You can also check the website to see who will be playing at the Garden Rocks Concert Series when you’re there!

    I hope you have a magical visit to Disney World next week! And if you have any other questions, we’d love to have you back at planDisney.
