Hi Jackie!
Thanks for stopping by planDisney with a great question! As my friend Princess Tiana would say, your Walt Disney World Resort vacation is getting
closer and closer every day, and I'm sure you're bursting with excitement!
Jackie, Guests staying at the
Drury Plaza Hotel Orlando Lake Buena Vista have access to some resort benefits, but not all of them, which can sometimes be a bit confusing. For example, as a Guest at the Drury, you can take advantage of
Early Theme Park Entry, but you'll need to wait to purchase
Lightning Lane passes until three days before your park visit. Our family likes to
combine Lightning Lane Multi Pass selections with Lightning Lane Single Pass purchases to make the most of our time in the parks.
When making your Lightning Lane Multi Pass selections, you can select three rides for a single park. At Magic Kingdom Park, EPCOT, and Disney's Hollywood Studios, you'll be able to select one attraction from Group One and two attractions (or all three) from Group Two. Currently, Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park does not group attractions for Lightning Lane Multi Pass. As you redeem your Multi Pass selections, you can
add additional attractions (based on availability) following a "use one, get one" system. You can also
modify your initial selections before your arrival and throughout your visit to the parks in the
My Disney Experience Mobile App.
Additionally, Early Theme Park Entry is a great way to take advantage of lower crowds and enjoy favorite attractions before the park officially opens for other Guests. I suggest confirming with your hotel what time the first buses leave for the parks to ensure that you arrive in time to take advantage of this great perk!
I hope this information has been helpful, Jackie, and that you enjoy your time at Walt Disney World Resort! If you have any other questions, please stop by to see us again here at planDisney - we're all ears!
Cheers,
Kristi
