Lightning Lane at Walt Disney World

[dreday3]

Interesting…Dollywood now has 3 different tiers of “fastpasses” depending on the rides you want to go on basically. Some unlimited. Some not. Some not including the popular rides.

Interesting to see how other theme parks are doing it differently. Not sure what the answer is for Disney though

Huh.

I wonder if her hotels get the Premium included with the stay?

Ah, they create a whole new level which is the only one that covers the new ride

Makes me wonder if universal will do something like this where only a new tippy-top level express pass included Epic Universe

At least for the Dreammore resort you do but it mentions a $60 savings which would be the lowest tier

Yeah that's what it was when we stayed, but before the tiers. I would hope they'd bump the perk up to the premium time-saver!

Not really. Most parks have at least 2 levels of skip the line pass.

WDWMAGIC now provides detailed pricing data and historical trends for Disney's Genie+ and Lightning Lane purchases at Walt Disney World.

Try it out now at https://www.wdwmagic.com/genieprice.htm

Slightly strange Genie+ pricing behavior over the last 10 days. No changes to any of the pricing options for ten days and counting. We would typically see price changes every couple of days.

Could just be testing how many people will still pay these prices as demand drops off.

 

[Disneydad1012]

Hopefully prices start changing again next week when we arrive. And please change lower. Gonna be a big increase from lasts years $15 a day to $25 now.

Like many Disney rides built this century, they clearly don't build for capacity any more - it boggles my mind that people are fighting playing the phone lottery game for the privilege of paying $11/head to ride the almost 10 year-old 7DMT.

$27 for late August seems crazy. Can't image what Xmas week will be this year.

Increase of attendance this week?

I feel like the price increases are done to recoup less use. So the revenue stays same even though less people are buying

It’s all crazy…. And beyond excessive for all WDW pricing at this point. Sad to say, but they really have taken a lot out of it all, in my opinion.

 

[Sirwalterraleigh]

Hey…you gotta pay when you need the “magic” of avoiding wait times that are artificially doubled to make you buy the genie

You can always “not fall for it”

This morning’s Disney Dish surmised that about 25% of the LL lines were comprised of paying G+ customers, with the balance made up of blend of DAS and VIP crowds. I rarely see plaids at WDW. Are there really that many DAS folks utilizing that system?
