As we prepare to cover a new era in skip-the-line access at Walt Disney World, Disney is making a few adjustments for the debut of Lightning Lane Passes next week. As you may know, Disney Genie+ will be retired and replaced by Lightning Lane Passes on July 24th. There are a number of changes to the skip-the-line system that will significantly change how you plan, such as the ability to pre-plan and the ability to hold up to three Lightning Lane Multi Pass selections at a time. For a rundown on what’s changing, check out our earlier article.
To prepare for the upcoming change, Walt Disney World has sent out emails to guests with a vacation booked for next week. On launch day, Disney Resort hotels and Guest Relations locations will have extra support available to assist guests through this new process.
On July 24, guests may be able to purchase Lightning Lane Passes in the My Disney Experience app for use that day, and can immediately plan their Lightning Lane experiences for the rest of their trip. Until then, Disney Genie+ service and Individual Lightning Lane entry may still be available to purchase for use through July 23. Guests should download the latest version of the My Disney Experience app prior to July 24 to purchase Lightning Lane Passes.
