Don’t forget D23!!!! While it sold out before I could decide I’m kinda glad I’m not there for them trying to do reserved seating in an arena this year! They could shove large groups in to open seating in a timely manner I can’t imagine that disaster! Haha
Yes, I’m sure it depends on an individual park goers touring style, but for me and my extended family it was great. I really don’t like Genie+. My son has some sensory sensitivities and will currently only go on about 3-4 rides at MK (on a good day, other days it’s limited entirely to the train.) If we had FP+ we could easily get the rides he wants over and over, because they’re all pretty much C-list kinda rides like the Speedway (these days anything and everything can get a substantial wait though.) With Genie it’s this big extra cost to make sure we can skip the line once. And it seems like that method probably contributes to longer waits anyways - I don’t understand why they don’t have the “no re-ride” rule apply only to e-tickets.
This is where I think that Disney can get into some problems if it comes down to them just telling those with disabilities to just buy Genie+. People with disabilities are supposed to have equal access. Genie+ does not give you that. Typical people can ride the same thing over and over if they wanted to, Genie+ doesn't allow for that.
The DAS CM I spoke to yesterday on the video chat told me nothing would be released until May 20th. In other words, all the stuff we're hearing and reading is crap supposition. Will some of it turn out to be true, maybe but she was adamant that the CMs were in training and nothing could be discussed.
Who’s riding things “over and over again”?
But the things people want to ride can have waits of 1 to 2 hours, so it’s self-limiting.
GAC, before it changed, was a total skip the line system. GAC holders were brought in through the exits a lot of the time. It was like having a free VIP tour line access but maybe better and definitely cheaper.
Technically yes but... if they don't separate the line then a whole bunch of people will have to move for a wheelchair to gain access this is a logistical issue. Just remember there are only 2-3 spaces for wheelchairs/scooters we have had to wait for 3 buses at times when the 'standby' line emptied out each time. We have been sitting there waiting for a bus while everyone has left for the parks.
Oh I wasn’t saying it’s wrong…. I don’t think it’s a “line skip” either. i didn’t think anyone would think it was! Haha
In June of 2021, the lightning lanes seemed very empty to me.
I don't think there's a court out there that's going to buy that argument. I doubt Disney is worried about it in the slightest.
They should have been…it didn’t start until the fall
Especially since nobody in an Orlando Disney park has ridden things “over and over again” in going on 2 decades
I had some luck with back-to-back rerides using FP+.
Very few and VERY far between
Not for me. It happened several times.
I can only speak for myself. I'm not saying my experience was typical, but FP+ could be used in this way by those interested enough.
That’s an interesting issue. Disney is likely going to limit line accommodations quite a bit, which may lead to a lawsuit being filed fairly quickly.
Anecdotal
