15 Sneaky Disney World Lightning Lane Secrets

[@kellybarr5346]

Just back from trip and can confirm the loophole is real. Anytime we arrived within 3 hours of start of lightening lane time, it was green. We also received a new lightening lane once the expiration time. We were able to stack. It took the stress off of having to run across the park. Great find!

[@karookst]

Confirmed as well. I previously asked do you have to check into the park first for it to begin working. No you dont. HOWEVER, you cant book another tier 1 until you tap into the first ride. So you can stack BUT you cant stack new tier 1s until you tap into the first ride.

[@shlopez13]

Excellent tips! That loophole is super interesting. I can’t wait to see how Quincy uses the loophole in her challenge. Thanks Breedlove and Emma!

[@edcurran4511]

I'm gonna need a FULL VIDEO on exploring the loophole!! Sounds too good to be true!!!

[@alishagray7771]

Agreed. I was super confused. I have not yet used LLMP but have an upcoming trip in Nov.

[@karookst]

@@alishagray7771 We exploited this like crazy this past week. Ask away any questions on how it works and Ill be glad to answer.

[@rebeccalicari5168]

Prebooking, stacking, and the ability to hold three reservations at once???? Hello Multipass!! also, y’all are simply amazing at what you do!! Thank you for all of your efforts

[@PixieDustFamily]

Breedlove!! I didn’t want to interrupt while you were working at Tony’s Town Square yesterday, but it was so great to see you! I just have to tell you that the “Breedlove Method” works for us! We were able to book more rides one hour after each ride expired before even entering the park, and we rode them all when we made it to Magic Kingdom mid day. Thanks again! ♥️

[@krichter044]

Thank you for sharing that amazing tip, Breedlove!!! That’s awesome you were able to figure that out!

[@christinemiller5515]

I used the loophole and it was great!! I got a little overwhelmed mid afternoon - but it absolutely worked. 😊🎉

[@nickdiamond7907]

When did you do it? Was it this week?

[@angelcordero717]

Wow wow wow, can’t wait for “ THE BIG TEST “, stacking

[@kayceyv]

Craig = GENIUS Love you two, and so excited to see Quincy’s video! ❤

[@angelcordero717]

I thought, what else can they say about Lightning Lane- WOW ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ EXCELLENT/ INFORMATIVE video- thank you thank you thank you

[@robs7229]

Great Tips guys!!!! Its always helpful to know all these different things that help with our trips!!! Keep up the great work guys 👍

[@jasonsadventures64]

I just got back from Disney World, I wish I'd known this last week lol. Disney will probably "Fix" this by the time I go again in November.

[@victoriabrake2103]

LovE the loophole! I hope they don't change it now that you guys Are catching on!

[@Sam4G0d]

This was brilliant, thanks for sharing!

[@mariapadilla4849]

Yay Breedlove! Would love your top food picks.

[@FlexwithDoctorJay]

I feel like the loop hole doesn't work anymore already. We tried waiting for our pass to expire. Although it says you can book your next one, none of our passes showed we were eligible. We could be doing something wrong but just wanted to update everyone.

[@LauraBlair-v9f]

Love Breedlove in videos!! I met him last year and he is such a sweetheart

[@mandeeTerrane]

Ooh love that last tip! I wonder how this works with shows (if it does). Maybe it lets you scan in to the next show time. I hope Quincy tests this in her challenge! Great job y’all!

[@D.JasonChildress]

Great tips. 2 questions for those who have used the “loophole”: 1) does it work for the first LL of the day? I have read experiences from others that make me think not. 2) if you miss the 3 hour window, can you rebook that attraction later or do you lose it for the day?

[@anasofiaespinosa7587]

I had no idea you were able to use more than three lightning lanes per park day!!! Amazing!!! So basically unlimited lighting lanes depending on timing and availability right?

[@emilianomaia7258]

the system will get abused and we will lose this time window

[@kellybarr5346]

Can we please test again asap!? I am so curious!

[@andrewt1556]

This was so good, THANK YOU!

[@JoyEll]

Thank you for this really great information!

[@MagicalAdventuresWithCass]

Omg I noticed this during my last trip with my LL expiring but not disappearing from the app, but I didn’t even attempt to try to ride! So sneaky!

[@mattjohnston810]

Was at Disney last week and we stumbled upon this as well and road on several rides up to an hour after ride window and had 3 other lightning lanes booked. I would imagine they allow this so there’s not as many people going to guest services

[@dougetue4430]

Multiple people have informed me that you can not stack after a lightning lane has expired. Being as you had a different experience, and he went last week, has this changed?

[@moemcninch]

So helpful! Thank you!

[@jenj6489]

Thank you for the great tips! One suggestion though - when you are showing the screen shots on screen of the MDE app it’s hard to determine where you’re tapping. Could you maybe do a quick pause and insert an arrow to show where you’re tapping? That would be super helpful. We’ll be there in a few weeks so I hope we can say hi and thank you in person! ❤️

[@terrimellinger2508]

OMG!!!! You guys are amazing!!! I have 10 day trip coming up...I have plenty of time to try this tip!!! Can't wait to beat Disney at their own game😁 Thank you for your hard work to make our trips easier 🤗

[@faitthy]

Love the vid! Cant wait to see the loophole in action ❤

[@nurspreneurnay]

Great tips! I hope these work well for the holidays for non-resort guests!!

[@ashley-n9j]

I’m confused on how you got the additional 2 at MK. If you’re not letting them expire, you could only have 6… so where did the other two MK ones come from?

[@muttshouse]

I wonder if the secret 3 hour window depends on how popular a ride is?

[@lindajmaglionico]

So I saw the 2 of you in MK on this day - it was hot as BLAZES ... I couldn't even think straight it was so hot. I have no idea how you guys manage to look good, be upbeat & coherent in that broiler oven. AND do challenges!! How do you do it?

[@CraneFamilyAdventures]

Has any of this changed or all seem to still exist? 3 hour window for example. Will be in the parks Saturday

[@michael_and_ness]

I leave for my trip next Wednesday, does the loophole still work?

[@PixieDustFamily]

Love this duo!! Thanks for the helpful tips! I will now be making our park reservations before the 7 day booking window and stacking because we are not rope drop people with 3 small children 😅 Breedlove dishes invaluable information once again!

[@marthaburge5209]

We got up early to book Tiana's, 3 days prior to our visit. Started right when it opened up and this was already gone. Any tips on how we may still be able to get on this ride??? Very sad

[@Meeshwell]

VERY interesting loophole!! Though you did say that at the one hour mark you can book your next reservation, tier 1 or tier 2. I’m assuming this only applies starting at your second ride of the day since you can only open up additional tier 1 LLs AFTER scanning into one ride, correct? I’ve seen that tested and, at least in the first week or two of multipass, you could not book another tier 1 LL until you had scanned into the first ride, even if your first LL had expired. Then again… things are always changing!

[@maliapercic8213]

This is what I'd like to know, would this work starting in the morning with an early time if you haven't scanned into the first ride?

[@philipsmedley9850]

So i just did this BIGGEST TIP EVER for HS but didnt work in MK. regardless was able to hit all rides. Most helpful piece of info for hollywood studios my party rode all the rides stacking per land to decrease our step dow. To 8.2 miles and out by 7.

[@FletchyMcFletch]

This is crazy like a fox, especially the setting of multiple alarms. I commend you.

[@jazzgod21]

do you actually have to ride the burner ride? can i just scan and leave?

[@danasaccomano7966]

What happens if you miss your VQ return time? Is there an extra 2 hours to scan into that ride as well?

[@newyearsproject09]

Please let us know if this stops working! Going in 2 weeks!

[@fullmoon-ena]

does it still work??

[@vincent412l7]

On the loophole, don't you need also an alarm to tell you to start heading to the ride? Instead of alarms, would a spreadsheet work better? You could color code it; and construct a timeline.

[@lindakuhns7513]

Is the 3 hour loophole still working in October...do you believe it is still going to remain a loophole into November? Also , did it work in all parks?

[@preppylilprncess]

I was hoping this loophole would work for upcoming trip. I was thinking of booking in Hollywood studios 1:slinky dog, 2: Toy Story Mania and then 3: Muppets (just to let it expire) and then book Minnie and mickeys railway as my 3rd. but I'm thinking that if I haven't tapped into the park yet that this may not work right?

[@karookst]

Any feedback on this? Also wondering if you have to check into the park first for it to work

[@kellybarr5346]

You have to have tapped into a ride

[@GrimGinger]

Don’t count on the loophole being there forever. Some system settings are likely being relaxed as it is used live for testing.

[@MoMukh]

Please let us know if this gets fixed...going in November for the first time ever, and hoping the loophole is still there!

[@buckhorn615]

Haven't scrolled through all the comments, but are you saying once I ride an early tier 2 ride, I am able to book another tier one ride?

[@AllEarsNet]

Yes!

[@LaciJo16]

Yay Breedlove!!

[@bernardes13]

This loophole still works? Thanks

[@blossombunnie]

I would also like to know

[@nurspreneurnay]

I need a full video on tip #15 lol

[@cuneorama]

Seriously. I want a whole channel about it.

[@Adaranova]

Me too

[@sarahcason2149]

Emma where did you get your sunglasses they are SOOOO CUTE AHH, AllEars style queen

[@philipsmedley9850]

Still working? I am going next week and my reservation window just opened

[@ReckFamily]

I’m worried they might suddenly change the 3 hour thing without announcing it

[@stacygarris2219]

Does this work on Single Passes too?

[@Kristen-v8j]

Does this work at Disneyland too?

[@keithevans8299]

Can anyone verify if this loophole still works currently?

[@awhytchannel]

You guys need to explain this much better. I understand the 3 hour window if a reservation conflicts. But I don't get the 1 hour thing. Can you book a new LL every hour in addition to unlock you get after scanning in during the 3 hour window. Does this only work with dining reservations?

[@philipsmedley9850]

Reservation time is at 10a.m. for Tiana: 1. The ride will expire from your app at 11pm so you can now book a new Lightening lane. (The app assumes you missed your return window but you have 3 hours to return not 1) 2. Make sure you have rode Tianas before 1p.m. 3. Go ride the next ride right after you get off of tiana

[@ocean44432]

Just an fyi Tron does not have a virtual queue as of September 9th per the Disney app.

[@timtaylor1789]

I wish they had an option that you pay a bunch of extra money for but its all express pass unlimited, no app needed.

[@wrenmarietattoos]

They cannot legally have anything like Universal’s system. It’s patented.

[@Goomba_Smash]

@@wrenmarietattoos Didn’t Disney use basically that same system 2 decades ago though with the original FastPass system?

[@vincent412l7]

Do a VIP tour

[@nonnauu3977]

Like Universal. It’s a fortune but SO much easier!

[@jabba108]

Great advice but don’t like the loophole, hopefully they fix it. It will waste times.slots and keep people from getting rides. And like you said, you didn’t even use some of them

[@livefromconcerts]

great video! just wondering, is the three hour return window for every multi pass, even is the pass doesn't conflict with a dining/other ride reservation?

[@victoriabrake2103]

I was wondering the same thing.

[@kathleenbeachmaui]

Hey guys ! Thank you so much for this. I’m headed out to Florida in about two weeks and will be spending about 5-6 days in the parks so this is helpful and me planning ahead of and the day of.

[@dougetue4430]

This is my first time watching. Who is Quincy?

[@kateroba1508]

Regarding tip 15 --Do you have to be IN the park after LL expires to book the next one? For instance, could we book a LL for open, let it expire, and book another from our resort without being in the park?

[@billlipper5318]

You say to put the single pass LL later in the day. Given that Rise of the Resistance is prone to closures, would you make an exception to that rule on your Hollywood Studios day?

[@angelcordero717]

Thank you

[@adventuremode2048]

Excellent advice! Two of the best influencers, Breedlove is so funny.

[@carriea7114]

I don't understand any of this. First of all if I'm paying to get into the damn park I shouldn't have to pay extra to ride the rides! Also this sounds like you would be bouncing all over the park then. I will be using an EVC and I can't go from one side to the other side all the time. Someone please help me understand.

[@carolperez8365]

Anyone tried the loophole (recently) and found success? WDW famous for finding and plugging loopholes.

[@angelcordero717]

YES, I’m watching it a third time!

[@Jeylei]

I wonder if you need to be scanned into the theme park to start booking subsequent lightening lanes with this loophole? Can I do all this from the comfort of my hotel & then just arrive at the park at my leisure? 😅

[@victoriabrake2103]

Probably not since you have to have used at least one LL to modify. Maybe if you go and scan in one go back for afternoon break and just keep stacking for the evening making sure to come back before 3 hours after the first one expired?

[@xatuyou8045]

Can anyone tell me how the lines for Tiana are during not so scary?

[@jmchinch]

In late August, the standby said 40 minutes but it was less than 20 about 10pm

[@aek2897]

Breedlove rocks

[@marcismith2440]

HELP! For our upcoming trip , we'll be resort guests, BUT due to traveling, we won't be able to get to the park on our 1st day until 11 am (at the earliest). Planning to do MK because it's a party night. We'll buy a Single pass for Tron, and Tiana is a must, so it will be our 1st Tier 1 Multi-pass selection. We won't try for the virtual que at 7 am. though, since we can't make it in the park early enough but we may try the virtual que at 1 pm to ride it twice. What are your tips for starting later in the day on a party day? Next, we will start at Epcot on day 2, BUT hop to MK that afternoon so we can enjoy MK at night...the only rides we MUST do at Epcot are Spaceship Earth and Cosmic Rewind (we'll try for a virtual que at 7 am AND purchase a Single Pass) then we'll eat and drink some of our favs before we hop to MK (we will buy a Single Pass for Tron again). What's your recommended strategy for this day? Oh, and it's the Monday of Thanksgiving Week 🤪

[@victoriabrake2103]

Get spaceship earth as MPLL along with a couple others you don't care scan into whichever is earliest time and modify those two slots to MK (I would do one tier 1 and the second whichever smaller ride I want to ride that will expire no more than 3 hours after I plan to get to the park) When they expire book another for MK while you continue to enjoy the showcase and ride cosmic rewind. This would be my strategy at least based on my understanding from the info on this video.

[@marcismith2440]

@victoriabrake2103 Thank you. That's what I was thinking, too, for the Epcot/MK day after watching the video. For the 6ish hour MK day... I'm hoping that since it's a party day, crowds will be manageable. It does concern me since it's Thanksgiving week. We usually avoid the parks around the holidays, but this year, we had to work around my daughter, who is a 1st year teacher.

[@grintwigplays]

Did you try the loophole with any Single Pass rides?

[@angelcordero717]

Had to watch it twice

[@moonchilde666]

yeah that’s about to not be a thing anymore. thanks so much.

[@MeMyselfAndUs903]

Seems like using lightning lane and getting what you want after multiple attempts would give great fun for people who are competitive.

[@stevee8260]

I'll judge the new LL system after Christmas.

[@loriobrien1246]

I strongly suspect it’s a glitch for only some accounts. Other people have tested this over the last few weeks and the rides turn blue after about 15-20 minutes, as they always did before for most people. And I have talked to at least one person who said this 2-hour grace period has been like that for her for several years! If it really worked this way Disney couldn’t use this system to plan how many people are riding and know when to drop more and so on.

[@datavortex]

I bet there's zero chance Disney does not crush this now. They'll at least knock it back an hour or more.

[@adventuremode2048]

I would hope they are already aware and just haven’t told anyone.

[@datavortex]

@@adventuremode2048 No question they're aware. But I suspect if we see this have widespread use then they'll pull it back, at least some.

[@williambutler2701]

That window on the right is very annoying and it does not stay closed. I stopped watching because of it.

[@sha2596]

Crossing my fingers that this still works when I’m there in 2 weeks!

[@summerratzlaff]

Ok, so you’re saying if we book dining reservations, it will give us up to 3 hours to use the multipass LL we have booked? How many dining rez did you do?!

[@awhytchannel]

Lol I'm wondering the same thing. But I think it doesn't matter if you have dining reservations. 3 hour window regardless. I'm not sure about the part not checking into your first ride and still being able to unlock all LL after an hour. If that's right good to know.

[@summerratzlaff]

@@awhytchannel Oh ok, I rewatched a couple time, lol. So in general, there's technically a 3 hour window on the LL, from what he is saying, so if you let the LL expire, and book another...hmmm, I'm definitely going to need a video on this broken way down and told to me like I'm a kindergartner!

[@awhytchannel]

@@summerratzlaff 😆 I rewatch more than a couple times. Sort of understand but not quite 100 percent sure. Did mention it on FB group and asked people to let me know if it works. So if you let it expire the 3 hours window opens? IDK . But like others have said Disney will probably close that loop hole.

[@awhytchannel]

I hope they read comments and reply with answers. I'm just going to assume it doesn't matter what type of reservation ride or dining if there's a conflict the 3 hour grace window happens. And you can reserve another LL an hour after your LL reservation during the 3 hour window. But you can still use that LL even if the app is saying you are past the return time because of the 3 hour window. Then keep stacking LL.

[@AdamLaMore]

So in short, the old 15 minute grace period is now a 2 hour grace period?

[@jayokee714]

Way too confused on this loophole...

[@stevee8260]

I understand the loophole. I'm wondering if it's intentional or if it will be closed. In the meantime, nice catch you guys!

[@caitandrews533]

Yea it was a bit long winded. If you let a multipass LL expire, you can still redeem it up to 3 hours after the return window ended. If my LL was from 1pm-2pm, I actually have until 5pm to use it. An hour after a multipass LL expires, you can book another LL of any tier. If my LL was from 1-2pm and I don't use it, I can book another LL starting at 3pm. If I do, now I have 4 MP LLs to use instead of 3.

[@jayokee714]

@@caitandrews533 but he said it did NOT work at three hours.

[@cuneorama]

I'm responding to multiple comments. He did say it doesn't work at 3 but he's saying it works up to2 hours and 59 minutes. And he said that as soon as it expires you can book a new one not an hour after it expires. So if your window is 10am-11am you let it expire at 11 and at 11:01 you can book a new LL using that now empty slot and you have to use the 10-11 one by 1:59pm@@caitandrews533

[@kaylainchrist]

@@caitandrews533what I’m not getting is, if we’re waiting an hour for something to expire, why not just ride the ride on time? We get to select a new ride as soon as we scan in, I don’t really get how it helps to waste an hour

[@Big_Dai]

"The up-charge is worth it" .. this is why these awful systems are here to stay.

[@xxSydneyFox]

It baffles me that people actually pay so much money for the LL. If we all refused to pay they may bring back the fast pass but that's not gonna happen when they are getting more money this way. Sigh.

[@MeMyselfAndUs903]

What about just starting your visit later in the day….like 2 pm or later. Why rush, rush, rush first thing in the morning?

What about us from the UK? Not allowed to start at all.
