Hi Erin!
Welcome to planDisney! As my friend Princess Tiana would say, you're
Almost There! I bet you are so excited about your Walt Disney World Resort vacation starting in just a few days. Have you started packing yet? While you're finishing getting ready for your trip, you may want to check out some of the best tips that my fellow panelists and I have for
staying cool during your trip. There are a few handy packing suggestions that you may find helpful!
Erin, you'll be in the parks during a very exciting change - the transition from
Disney Genie+ to the new
Lightning Lane passes. For any days you plan to visit the parks before the release of Lightning Lane passes, you can use Disney Genie+ service,
Individual Lightning Lane Entry, and
Virtual Queues. At 7:00 AM on July 24, 2024, the new Lightning Lane passes will go live in your
My Disney Experience Mobile App. Since you'll already be in the middle of your vacation when the transition occurs, you should be able to purchase Lightning Lane Multipass and any Lightning Lane Single Passes for the remainder of your trip at that time. As a reminder, the Virtual Queue process will remain unchanged for those select attractions. Your first chance to join the Virtual Queue will be at 7:00 AM each day you visit the parks.
If you have a ticket that includes the
Park Hopper Option, it's important to note that your initial three pre-arrival selections for Lightning Lane Mutli Pass must be from a single park. However, you can choose additional Lightning Lane entries (based on availability) as you use them and those same-day selections can be from any park.
Erin, I hope this information is helpful and that you enjoy a wonderful visit to Walt Disney World Resort! If you have any other questions, please stop by planDisney again!
See ya real soon!
Kristi
