🎉 BIG NEWS 🎉 regarding Lightning Lane at Disney World!

You will soon be able to make your Lightning Lane selections BEFORE your theme park day!

Changes coming:

On July 24, Walt Disney World will introduce new, simpler names to provide more clarity for everyone. Disney Genie+ service will become Lightning Lane Multi Pass, while individual Lightning Lane will now be known as Lightning Lane Single Pass.

Disney will also be updating Lightning Lane passes to help guests:

🎉 You will now be able to make Lightning Lane plans BEFORE you travel!

🎉 Choose your experiences and times prior to purchasing, so you know what you’re getting.

🎉 Book Lightning Lane passes for multiple vacation days, all in a single day.

Here’s how it works:

Lightning Lane Multi Pass
When guests purchase Lightning Lane Multi Pass, they may make up to 3 Lightning Lane selections in a theme park, in advance of your visit. They’ll also be able to choose available times as they make their selections. On the day of their visit, once they use a selection, they may check the My Disney Experience app for availability to make an additional selection.

Lightning Lane Single Pass
Lightning Lane Single Pass will work much like it does today, where guests can secure a time to ride one of our most highly demanded attractions, but they’ll now be able to make their purchase and plan in advance.

How to Plan Ahead
Guests staying at a Disney Resort hotel and other select hotels (Shades of Green Resort, Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Hotels) will be able to plan Lightning Lane passes up to 7 days in advance, for their entire stay (up to 14 days).

All other guests can plan up to 3 days in advance.

These advance purchase windows will let guests secure some of their must-do rides and experiences after they've had some time to decide what dining reservations they want to book and any other plans they may need to consider.

Beginning Jan. 9, 2024, guests with a ticket with Park Hopper benefits or an Annual Pass will be able to once again visit another theme park at any time of day during park hours (subject to capacity limitations). As a reminder, since returning in 2021, Park Hopper access has only been available after 2 p.m. each day. Now, there will be no more waiting – you can decide when it’s time to visit another park.

On days when theme park reservations are required for Annual Passholders and certain non-dated tickets, Passholders and guests will be able to take advantage of the updates to Park Hopper access after visiting their first park.

🚢🚢🚢 Today, there’s a BIG announcement from Disney Cruise Line…Disney will welcome guests to a one-of-a-kind island destination at Lighthouse Point, located on the island of Eleuthera in The Bahamas, for the first time during its opening season in summer 2024!

Here are the highlights:
☀️ Uniquely Designed, Sustainably Developed

☀️ Fun and Relaxation for Everyone
Lighthouse Point will offer activities and areas for every age group.

☀️ A Bahamian art and culture pavilion featuring special programs and local artists

☀️ A brightly-colored, interactive family water play area will include two slides, water drums, fountains and more, along with a dedicated space for toddlers.

☀️ North of the family area will be an adult-exclusive beach — a glorious stretch of sun-drenched serenity complete with a dedicated dining area.

☀️ Children ages 3 to 12 will splash and play at a themed kids’ club under the care of highly-trained Disney Cruise Line counselors. It will include a splash pad inspired by favorite undersea creatures from Walt Disney Animation Studios’ “The Little Mermaid,” plenty of shade and a dedicated dining area.

☀️ Set away from the activity of the main family area, a peaceful beach along the south-western shore will be lined with 20 premium family cabanas available to rent.

☀️ Additional recreational activities will be available for kids and kids-at-heart, including a covered gaming pavilion; a volleyball court and gaga ball pit; watercraft and bicycle rentals; nature trails for hiking and biking; and more.

On this International Women’s Day I want to take a moment to praise these hard working faces you see below. Some are moms. Some are wives. Some are working multiple jobs. But you know what they’re ALL doing on a daily basis?

Choosing community over competition. Straightening each others crowns. Encouraging, uplifting, and supporting each other in a way you would not believe.

These women, and their incredible hearts and spirits, are the core of Second Star Wishes.

“Be the woman who fixes woman’s crown without telling the world it was crooked”
