Happy holidays, Anthony! I'm so thankful you stopped by planDisney before your Thanksgiving-time visit to
Walt Disney World Resort. I'm no turkey—I love helping guests plan magical trips. It sounds like you're hoping to take advantage of
Lightning Lane passes, so let's look at how the process will work.
Guests staying at Disney Resort hotels can purchase Lightning Lane Multi and Single passes at the
seven-day mark for their stay (up to 14 days). So, if you have a qualifying hotel reservation, be sure it's linked to your account to purchase those passes now in your
My Disney Experience mobile app.
All other guests can purchase Lightning Lane passes three days in advance on a day-by-day basis. If you still need clarification about your eligibility window, please call the
Existing Tickets line for assistance. They can see your admission type and room reservation to tell you precisely when you can book those passes. I'm sending stuffing, gravy, and pixie dust so you'll book some thrilling rides for Thanksgiving!
I visited the theme parks a few days ago, and I'm happy to report the
holiday decor is in full swing. My husband and I took some breathtaking photos at night with the
EPCOT Christmas tree. I hope you enjoy all the festive and bright sights while you're here!
Anthony, thanks again for coming to
planDisney with your planning question. Whether you're after holly berries or cranberries (or both!) next week, I hope you gobble up some fun!
Magic awaits,
Elaine
