I purchased Lightning Lane Single Pass for Guardians this Saturday. It was relatively easy and preferred it over Genie+ but I still don’t like having to pay.

Can only book through July 28 even though I have an AP. It does automatically stack your 3 attractions starting 40 min after park open so I guess that’s the new start time. I picked my 3 rides and got

August 14th for me. EDIT: ^That.
As of this morning, your park reservation as an Annual Passholder does not need to match which park you choose to purchase Lightning Lane Multi Pass.
For example, if you have a park reservation at Magic Kingdom, you can still chose Disney's Hollywood Studios and have times available before 2pm.

I can't buy because I have no tickets, but it let me see that far out. I have a hotel stay on 8/3 before a cruise. Nobody on my FF list is eligible to purchase on 8/14. But I can see the prices.

Yes, but if you select a park, it will say you’re ineligible.

I was able to book reservations from Saturday through Monday. Everything was super easy, and I shockingly didn't run into one singular bug/crash. Peter Pan and Test Track weren't selectable options for me. I am a UI designer, so I may be a little biased, but I felt all click through felt super intuitive and easy to follow. I was very nervous knowing Disney's technological infrastructure, but I was very pleasantly surprised.

I noticed this, why does it show August 14th pricing when no one should be eligible 21 days out?

They’ll need to fix the coding. It also isn’t letting me book more than 4 days out. July 29 says ineligible and that I can book July 26 at 7 am? At last check, 3 days before is not 7 days before. Someone messed up.

Typical Disney not doing testing before rolling something out mainstream.

So you can't pick the times you want to ride?

Each listing has a modify button that shows you times later in the day.

I have friends getting in next Friday, so I checked that date. For them, it said they are eligible to buy this Friday at 7 Eastern.
So apparently it is showing prices to let people see them, but only letting you buy when you're eligible. But it's also telling you when that is.
I think I woke up through the looking glass, because a new Disney IT rollout is acting user friendly and intuitive.
I'm going back to bed so I can wake up in the real world....

Closed rides (like Peter Pan) cannot be selected when you pick your 3.
