Hi-ya, Jamie!
Welcome to planDisney, Pal! It's great to have you here. I hope you are having a wonderful time counting down the last few days until your magical Walt Disney World Resort vacation. Once my family gets to single-digits it's definitely time for a single-digit dance party!
It sounds like you've got the planning all figured out for your upcoming stay and the
changes to Lightning Lane Entry beginning July 24, 2024. Up until that date, you'll be able to continue using
Disney Genie Service. At 7:00 AM (EST) on July 24th, you will be able to purchase Lightning Lane Multi Pass and/or Lightning Lane Single Pass for that day and the rest of your trip (up to 14 days.) Unfortunately, the new Lightning Lane passes will not be available for Guests in advance of July 24.
I also want to share a few extra tips that I have learned about Lightning Lane Multi Pass. When you select your first 3 experiences and arrival windows at the time of purchase, you'll have to make the same selections for everyone in your party. However, once the purchase is complete, you'll be able to modify each Guest's choices and select other multi pass experiences or arrival windows (subject to availability.) This gives your travel party flexibility—so you can share all the same Lightning Lane Multi Pass selections or enjoy different experiences. Also, once you have redeemed your first experience, you can use the
My Disney Experience mobile app to check availability for another Lightning Lane Multi Pass experience and, if available, add it to your plans. If you have a ticket that includes the Park Hopper Option, you can even begin selecting additional multi pass experiences from another park! (Subject to availability.)
I hope this helps clear up any questions you have about the new Lightning Lane Passes. If there is anything else we are able to help you with, please let us know. Have an incredible vacation, Jamie!
Magical Wishes,
Lauren
