Welcome back to planDisney, Debbie!
Can you believe your
Walt Disney World Resort vacation countdown is almost in the single digits?! Have you decided whether or not to purchase
Memory Maker for your trip? I ask because purchasing Memory Maker - Advance Purchase at least three days before your arrival saves money and ensures all of your party's
Disney PhotoPass memories will be available for download. It's also available for a one day purchase, depending on your park schedule. Magical food for thought.
I'm glad to hEAR you have your
park tickets and
park pass reservations, including Disney Genie+ service, all set for your upcoming trip. Genie+ is a digital tool accessed via the
My Disney Experience mobile app during your park days that allows you to book arrival windows for
Lightning Lane entrances at over 40 attractions throughout the four theme parks. That's right, Debbie. Genie+ is available at all four theme parks: Magic Kingdom park, EPCOT, Disney's Hollywood Studios, and Disney's Animal Kingdom park.
Scroll down and click "Read More" under each park to view a list of attractions currently available for Genie+ Lightning Lane bookings. If your park tickets include the Park Hopper option, you can even book Lightning Lane attractions for multiple parks on the same day, just make sure the arrival window you select for your second park does not open until
park hopping hours begin, which is currently 2:00 p.m. Each theme park also has a select number of Lightning Lane entrances available as separate à la carte purchases, which are listed as "Individual Lightning Lane Entrances" attractions.
From now through August 7, Debbie, Genie+ is granting even more wishes as Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway at Disney's Hollywood Studios, Frozen Ever After at EPCOT, and Space Mountain at Magic Kingdom park have been added to the list of attractions available for Genie+ Lightning Lane bookings. These popular attractions are sure to fill up fast, so make sure you're on your Tip Board in your My Disney Experience app right at 7:00 a.m., ready to select your first Lightning Lane attraction on each Genie+ park day. One person can make a Lightning Lane booking for up to 12 members of your traveling party, as long as everyone is connected as
Family and Friends. If your Lightning Lane arrival window is at least two hours after park opening or the time of booking, you will be given a time to make your next Lightning Lane booking. Set a timer on your phone so you can take full advantage of your Lightning Lane bookings throughout the day. Alternately, you are eligible to select your next Lightning Lane attraction as soon as you tap into your first.
Thanks for tapping into planDisney's desire to help Guests plan their magical Disney vacations. Hope to see you again real soon!
Choose magic,
Jennifer
