    Hello, my wife and daughter are going to Walt Disney World for a cheer competition in early March. We go to Disney every year and are not used to not having this info. Is there anyway we can get it so we have access to lightning lanes 7 days in advance?

    Welcome back to planDisney, Thomas! What an exciting adventure for your wife and daughter to experience a cheer competition at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex together this year! The excitement of these competition events is always unmatched in spirit and energy, and I know they will have the best time making magical memories together! I look back on my daughter's past competition trips fondly because it gave us time together letting her do what she loves most in the Most Magical Place on Earth!

    Thomas, it sounds like your wife and daughter may have booked a hotel travel package directly through Varsity, which bundles your theme park tickets and your Disney Resort hotel reservation together. Typically, Varsity will email your ticket confirmation numbers 7-10 days after your package has been paid in full so you can link these details to your My Disney Experience account and make necessary Theme Park Reservations. Regarding the Disney Resort hotel reservation, previous event guides suggest that you will receive your hotel assignment three weeks before the competition by email. Hopefully, with this timeline, you will have your reservation linked in enough time to make your Lightning Lane selections in advance! 

    I hope this helps, Thomas! If you're looking for a more specific timeline, I'd recommend reaching out to your Varsity travel representative or your daughter's team coach if they registered as a team; they may be able to provide you with more detailed reservation information! You can also find your event online here and click "Learn More" to follow the Varsity updates about the competition as they are posted. Usually, about a week before the competition, they will publish an event guide with lots of valuable information to make your visit even more magical!

    If there's anything else we can help with while you finalize your countdown, come back to planDisney anytime and let us know! Three cheers for magic and memories!

    See you real soon,
    Alison
