Magic Kingdom’s $450 Lightning Lane Premier Pass Sold Out for Thanksgiving Day

    Published:

    The expensive Lightning Lane Premier Pass continues to sell out during Thanksgiving Week. We previously noted that multiple dates had sold out at multiple theme parks, and now a new sold-out date has popped up. According to the My Disney Experience app, Lightning Lane Premier Pass is no longer available for purchase at Magic Kingdom on Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 28th.

    Lightning Lane Premier Pass Sold Out at Magic Kingdom on Thanksgiving

    Lightning Lane Premier Pass, the top-of-the-line skip-the-line pass at Walt Disney World, was priced at $449 for Magic Kingdom on Thanksgiving Day. This represents the previously announced ceiling for the service at Walt Disney World’s most expensive theme park.

    Lightning Lane Premier Pass allows guests to skip the line at all eligible Lightning Lane-enabled attractions in a theme park without the need to book a return window. Other skip-the-line products such as Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Lightning Lane Single Pass require guests to book a 1-hour return window in which they can use the pass, based on availability.

    Lightning Lane Premier Pass is certainly a premium product that isn’t for everyone, and the value proposition is usually extremely unbalanced when compared to a good touring strategy and Lightning Lane Multi Pass, but it will prove to be most useful during the busiest times of the year.

    We typically see a massive reduction in the number of Lightning Lane attractions that a guest can enjoy using Multi Pass as crowds increase. Because Multi Pass requires you to book a return window for each attraction that you want to skip the line at, attractions can run out of return times. During the busiest times of the year, those return times disappear quickly, and the usefulness of Multi Pass disappears quickly, too.

    With Lightning Lane Premier Pass, you do not have to book return windows, and attractions can not “sell out” during the day. Without the need to worry about return windows selling out, Premier Pass guests can have a worry-free day skipping the lines even during the busiest times of the year.

    Of course, you will pay handsomely for that privilege, with per-park, per-day pricing climbing north of $400 for Magic Kingdom. Standby lines remain available to guests.
