What a surprise this morning, Disney dropped some huge news!
Disney Parks will be piloting a new option called Lightning Lane Premier Pass (both Walt Disney World Resort and Disneyland Resort)
✨Lightning Lane Premier Pass will be offered in very limited quantities and will give guests one-time entry to each available Lightning Lane entrance in the theme park they are visiting that day. This includes attractions included in both Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Single Pass, but with Lightning Lane Premier Pass, guests do not need to select an experience time. Lightning Lane Premier Pass will be a premium offering, and prices will vary based on the date and theme park guests are visiting.
✨ At Disneyland Resort, the Lightning Lane Premier Pass will be available first come, first served beginning two days in advance of a theme park reservation and will be valid for use in both theme parks. The first date it will be available is October 23, 2024.
✨ At Walt Disney World, when Lightning Lane Premier Pass launches, it will be available to guests staying at Disney Deluxe or Deluxe Villa Resorts and may be purchased up to seven days in advance of their stay. It will only be valid for use in one park of the guest’s choice per day. The first date it will be available is October 30, 2024.
💸 Prices for Lightning Lane Premier Passes vary by date and theme park. At launch, prices will range from $129 to $449 per pass, plus tax with the highest prices falling on a limited number of days over peak travel periods. Eligible guests will be able to view prices in the My Disney Experience app.
This seems like it may be a much easier system. To sum it up, you pay one fee and get entrance into each Lightning Lane available at that park, once per person. At it is at a lower cost than VIP tours.
If you’d like to upgrade to deluxe, please let me know! We will also have our Lightning Lane documents updated today to reflect this for all our traveling guests 🤩
