Does Disney Genie Plus include all rides?

While many rides are included in the paid Genie+ service, some attractions and entertainment options are NOT included in the standard service. Sometimes, you can still skip the lines at these rides by paying for an Individual Lightning Lane, but other times the standby line is truly your only option.

Is Disney Lightning Lane Worth it Conclusion. As a general rule of thumb we do find the Disney World Lightning Lane to be worth it if you can find a way to save 60 minutes per attraction at a cost of under $11.00 per attraction.

I recommend keeping the number of tickets linked to a given account to about 10 or fewer. As far as theme park reservations go, it is OK to book multiple reservations to cover all of your party. As long as everyone has the same starting park on the same dates, you can all enter the parks together just fine.

If you are going to Animal Kingdom or Epcot While we really, really think Genie+ is worth it at Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios, we feel just as strongly as to it not being as necessary at Animal Kingdom and Epcot. But, while it isn't necessary, it can definitely make touring those 2 parks a lot, lot easier.

You may be out of luck for purchasing Individual Lightning Lanes for any attraction if you're staying offsite on high crowd days. Rise of the Resistance used to be the clear winner of the popularity contest here, and that doesn't hold true anymore either. At all crowd levels, Flight of Passage sells out first.

I think genie plus is pretty good if you don't mind the money and are fast at making your lightning lanes, but some rides just aren't on genie plus, and that's the individual lightning lanes. So if you dont mind the cost i'd purchase genie plus and the individual lightning lanes as you go.

MORE DETAILS

You can only use the Lightning Lane for an attraction once a day. Unlike with Fastpass, you are only allowed access the Lightning Lane once per day per attraction. So if you wanna ride an attraction multiple times, you'll be using that standby line for all but one of your turns.
