Same. And we usually didn’t have much trouble getting more after those 3. But if they’re taking out meet-and-greets then that might make it more difficult now. Even if we don’t use them someone does and now they’ll be booking rides.
Exactly. Who would buy this say in the summer months when they go and dont plan on the parks until the evening. My buddy is leaving in a couple weeks. He hasnt been in 3+ years and i hasnt used genie yet so was explaining how to stack
How is that any different from genie+ for someone that doesn’t plan on visiting the parks until the evening?
You weren’t stuck with only 1 T1 ride with G+. Also with G+ people with longer vacations than you couldn’t eat up all the inventory before you could even select anything.
APs making day visits (i.e. those not staying in a resort) will have the same 3 day rule as other day guests.
Let’s hope this is the case. I feel like they keep trying to revamp the Guest assistance card but people end up finding a work around. I don’t want to go off on a tangent on that topic so I’ll leave it at that.
The system is broken. In a few months the same complaints and issue that have grown for 15+ years will grow and amplify.
Nobody is buying those “full priced packages”. Discount levels are as high as they have been in forever.I wouldn’t be surprised if they started offering this “free” to anyone who books a full price package through Disney that includes park tickets and a hotel room similar to how they used the free dining plan. Then the high price actually makes the “free“ offering seem more valuable….similar to DDP.
What I’d like to see is a package deal developed that includes Genie+ with a multi day park ticket. Maybe make the per day price on the lower end but you have to buy for all of the days of a multi day ticket and maybe throw in an individual lightning lane or 2 or 4. So in your example maybe with the 5 day ticket you pay and extra $120 per person for 5 days of genie+ and 4 individual lightning lanes per person.
What about a non local that uses the AP for a week long vacation off site (say multiple during the year). Are they just 3 days in advance or will there be a park reservation component to allow them to book multiple days at once.
Same 3 day rule applies.
You mean are they gonna make accommodation for passholders who don’t stay onsite?
Literally impossible. They are going to have to open a ton of more G+ slots to make it so there is inventory to offer to everyone holding 3 slots that day.
It depends on how many people buy. If the same number of people buy into this system who were previously buying into the original genie+ system then the same number of slots will be used unless under the original people regularly only got to 2 rides a day or less which should not have been the case on any but the busiest days. Under FP+ everyone booked 3 rides a day but I would assume far less people will participate in this.
Under fp+ everyone could book 3, this will be less than that.
…I think you need to prepare yourself for some bad news.
