    I will be visiting Disney World next week for my husbands 60th birthday! I just booked lightening lane passes and noticed the time is not a precise time, but rather a span of time, I.e. 9:45 - 10:15. Does that mean we can arrive anytime within that span?

    Hi Lisa,

    What a wonderful way to spend a milestone birthday! Your husband is in for such a treat with all the planning you have been doing to make it extra magical. The main event is fast approaching!

    You have already done the hard work of making sure to get your Lightning Lane Passes set up, and it sounds like you all are ready to have the time of your lives. The thing I love about this system is that you do not need to show up at an exact time to enjoy your Lightning Lane Pass. You are given a window of time that you show up within. You can arrive at any time within this window but I don't recommend planning to arrive at the very end of the window just to be sure you don't miss your reservation. This means you don't have to worry about jumping out of line for a ride, rushing through a bite to eat, or running to your Lightning Lane because something took a few minutes longer than expected. 

    Since you are celebrating a big birthday, make sure to stop by Guest Services to grab a Celebration Button that tells the world it is your husband's 60th birthday. It is so fun to get birthday wishes all day long while you walk around soaking up the magic! Since you are staying at Disney's Grand Floridian, I recommend stopping by the Enchanted Rose for a nightcap after a full day of celebrating. They have a fabulous collection of champagne, and the Kir Royale is delicious! If he needs some pampering to unwind, the Grand Floridian Spa is gorgeous and so relaxing. It is one of the best massages I have ever had! They also offer a massage for two in a couple's room where you can melt away all the cares of the world together.

    Happy Planning,
    Jenna
