Disney Genie+ Package for Lightning Lane Access The Disney Genie+ service allows you to purchase multiple Lightning Lane entries under a single price. The cost of Genie+ varies based on date and demand; expect to spend somewhere between $15-$25 per person, per day. The more crowded the parks are, the higher the price.

MORE DETAILS

Can Genie+ sell out? Yes. It can. Although it isn't common, we've seen it happen a few times during busier times of the year (like over the holidays and Spring Break).

MORE DETAILS

Can you have more than one Genie+ Lightning Lane reservation at a time? Yes. The Genie 120-minute rule says that you can always make a new reservation if two hours have passed since you made the last one, or two hours since park opening if you made the reservation before the park opened.

MORE DETAILS

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.

“Until August 7, 2022, Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway, Frozen Ever After, Remy's Ratatouille Adventure (beginning May 31, 2022), Space Mountain and Expedition Everest – Legend of the Forbidden Mountain will be included via Disney Genie+ service and will not be included as individual Lightning Lane entry selections.”

Standby Skipper is an app that works alongside Genie+ to search for available Lightning Lanes, then books them for you automatically. On our last trip to Disney World, we tried it out and absolutely loved it — honestly, I have yet to meet anyone that doesn't love this app.

MORE DETAILS

All guests, regardless of where they stay, are limited to a maximum of two pay-per-ride attractions per day and can only book a particular ride once per day. What about Annual Passholders? Annual Passholders will need to purchase Genie+ on the day(s) of their visit.

MORE DETAILS

Lightning Lane is simply the name for the line you use to skip standby! These attractions are selected one at a time using the My Disney Experience app, beginning as early as 7:00 AM. You don't choose all your rides for the day at that time, though!

MORE DETAILS

Over the course of the last 2 years, our experience across all of Walt Disney World has been that actual wait times average about two-thirds to 75% of posted wait times most of the day. That drops to around 50% at night, if not lower.

MORE DETAILS

Because the number of park reservations is limited, they can occasionally run out. If you have found that the date you wish to visit no longer has reservations available, it's still worth checking the theme park reservation availability calendar often. You never know when other Guests may need to change their plans.

MORE DETAILS

The 120-minute rule is determined by when you make the reservation, not the return time for the attraction. So if you both log on at 9 AM to make a reservation for different attractions, you will both have to wait 120 minutes (or after riding the attraction, whichever comes first) to make your next selections.

MORE DETAILS

The Genie 120-minute rule says that you can make a new reservation at most 2 hours from when you made the last one, and this countdown timer doesn't change if you modify the reservation. If you made it at, say, 11 a.m., then your two hours will be up at 1 p.m. even if you modify the reservation at noon.

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.

Depending on the experience, Guests utilizing a wheelchair or scooter will either wait in the standard queue or receive a return time at the attraction that is comparable to the current standby wait.
