July 9, 2024 / / Comments Off on Genie+ is now called Lightning Lane Multi Pass & Lightning Lane Single Pass!
There are many changes that are going into effect in regards to Genie+. These changes go into effect on July 24, 2024 at 7am Eastern Time.
- The Genie+ name is being changed to Lightning Lane (LL) Multi Pass and the Individual Lightning Lane is being changed to Lightning Lane (LL) Single Pass.
- Lightning Lane (LL) Multi Pass means you will have access to select almost all attractions in a theme park for a fee. Lightning Lane (LL) Single Pass has to do with 1 or 2 attractions per theme park that you can have access to by paying an additional fee separate from the Multi Pass. The Single Pass attractions are not part of Multi Pass. For example in Disney’s Animal Kingdom, you can purchase Flight of Passage as a Lightning Lane Single Pass for $15 (an estimation).
- If you are not familiar with this system, in Walt Disney World you can purchase it in the mydisneyexperience app and gain access to a shorter line for the attractions. It is about $15 to $40 per day per person. You choose an attraction and go to the Lightning Lane during a hour time window. The standby line still exists for all attractions at no cost.
- Beginning on July 24, you can choose 3 attractions per day 7 days before your trip and it is done in the mydisneyexperience app. You can make the 3 selections per day for all the days of your trip beginning at 7am Eastern Time. After you have made the 3 selections for a given day, you will then be prompted to pay for the Lightning Lane (LL) Multi Pass. You will need to pay for the Lightning Lane (LL) Single Pass as well, if you chose any.
- People staying outside Walt Disney World cannot make selections until 3 days before their visit.
- All 3 initial selections have to be in the same park. You are able to choose the one hour time windows you prefer. The one hour time windows can overlap by 20 minutes.
- After you have made the 3 initial selections, they can be modified in the mydisneyexperience app at any point before your trip.
- When you are in a given park, after the 1st one has been used, you can then make another selection in the same park or a different park, if you have the hopper option. The other 2 could be modified to a different park if you prefer.
- For the 3 initial experience choices, you can choose 1 from Group 1 and 2 from Group 2 or all 3 from Group 2. The breakdown of the attractions by group is below.
- For Lightning Lane (LL) Multi Pass in the Magic Kingdom: Group 1 = Big Thunder Mountain, Jungle Cruise, Peter Pan, Space Mountain, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure. In Group 2 = Barnstormer, Buzz Lightyear, Dumbo, Haunted Mansion, Small World, Mad Tea Party, Magic Carpets, Winnie the Pooh, PhilharMagic, Monster’s Inc Laugh Floor, Pirates of the Caribbean, Tomorrowland Speedway, and Journey of the Little Mermaid.

- For Lightning Lane (LL) Multi Pass in Disney’s Hollywood Studios: Group 1 = Runaway Railway, Millennium Falcon, Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster, Slinky Dog. For Group 2 = Alien Swirling Saucers, Beauty and the Beast, Disney Junior, Frozen sing-along, Indiana Jones, Muppets, Star Tours, Toy Story Midway Mania, and Tower of Terror.

They are: Animation Experience, Dinosaur, Expedition Everest, Feathered Friends in Flight, Festival of the Lion King, Finding Nemo show, Tough to be a Bug, Kali River Rapids, Kilimanjaro Safaris, and Na’vi River Journey.
- The attractions included in the Lightning Lane (LL) Single Pass are: 7 Dwarfs Mine Train and Tron in Magic Kingdom, Guardians of the Galaxy in Epcot, Rise of the Resistance in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and Flight of Passage in Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
- If you are already in Disney World on July 24, 2024, you will make your 3 initial selections for July 24 that morning at 7am and then you can make them for the rest of your days as well. You can select the hour time windows to go to the attraction.
- You have to purchase the Lightning Lane (LL) Multi Pass right after you have made the 3 selections in the app, per day. There are no refunds. The system will open each day at 7am Eastern Time.
- During your vacation, after you use the 1st selection, you can then make another choice. It can be in the same park or a different park, if you have the hopper option.
- You can only choose each attraction once during a day.
- For the Lightning Lane (LL) single pass, you can make up to 2 per day. If you choose any, you will be prompted to pay for them right after you have made the selections per day.
- You can modify selections in the mydisneyexperience app.
- Please note: The most popular attractions will book up soon after 7am Eastern Time. (This is a huge advantage to being on site because off site guests can not make selections until 3 days before, onsite guests can make them 7 days in advance.)
- Previously you could make another selection 2 hours after you made a selection, but that no longer is going on. The system will allow you to choose another attraction after you have used a given attraction.
