🔴 BONUS VIDEO: Live Lightning Lane Q&A from Our Patreon Community

[@johnandmaz]

Rob. Enjoy the videos. After all the different complicated workrounds for Foreign visitors trying to purchase LL - VPNs, GPS spoofing etc. It turns out the very simple solution people in the UK have found, is to turn off location services in settings. Then in the My Disney app settings, set location to United States. Works a treat.

I was actually allowed to overlap quite a bit by modifying throughout the first day of my 7-day window after I first pre-booked. For DHS, I got a 10:20-11:20 Mickey & Minnie, 11:05-11:20 Frozen Sing-Along, 12:15 Oga's cantina, and 12:30-1:30 Rise of the Resistance.

I just want to thank you guys for keeping up with this new lightning lane thing, most channels say things like “so much more coming” and don’t usually say anything else but you guys always deliver, awesome job 👏👏

[@TheMainStreetBear]

Thank you so much for leaving this comment Joshua! It really means a lot to us ☺

[@Kristina-z5s]

I am so grateful for all your videos! We went in 2023 and it was my first time going since 1998! 😱 Your videos helped me plan a nearly flawless trip! So awesome was our trip that my non-excited about theme parks hubby wants to take our baby girl back every other year! I thought our 2023 trip would be IT with him! So here I go beginning the planning of our 2025 trip only to find out the system I had learned intimately has completely changed! Well, first thing I did was come back to ear scouts! Keep up the great work y'all! This TN gal is so grateful for you!

[@TheMainStreetBear]

Thank you so much for watching! We are happy to read that our videos helped you to have a great visit! Hopefully our paths will cross next time you visit the parks. 🙂

[@ThousanWhite]

Amazing video! Do one every 1-2 months!

[@TheMainStreetBear]

Thank you so much for watching, we really appreciate it!

[@ellenreisberg9306]

OMG.. you guys are just too cute with the matching shirts! Thank you both for all of this information!

[@TheMainStreetBear]

Baymax definitely make things better xD. Thank you so much for watching, we really appreciate it ☺

[@cherieh6786]

Thank you so much for all you do! Your videos are the best - always so clear and concise! I would love to see a video on using Lightning Lane with a large group. My family (20 people!) is going December 10-12. We are all staying at Art of Animation. You mentioned 2 people could book at the same time for different days, could you book at the same time for the same park? For example, 1 person booking for 10 people and the other person booking for the other 10? Have fun in Japan! That park is on our family bucket list! Also, are you going to have a Christmas themed Ear Scouts shirt?

[@thehenden7030]

First of all, thank you guys so very much for all of your helpful videos!! I’ve been following you and using them for over a year now. Everything has worked out pretty much perfectly for us! We are going first part of November and I was wondering if y’all will be going to Magic Kingdom or Hollywood Studios and doing a complete day of Scheduling and modifying and playing the slots on all the attractions? I would love to watch these and follow your guide before November.

[@TheMainStreetBear]

Thank YOU for watching - we really appreciate it. 😃. We are happy to read that our tips and tricks have been helpful during your visit. Also, we really appreciate the suggestions for new videos, thank you so much.

[@jenniferkenney4219]

LOVE your videos! I watch them just to enjoy seeing the parks. I would love to see an episode where you deep dive into what you pack for a day in the parks. What's worth carrying around all day, what are you better off just picking up in the parks when and if you need them?

[@SerenityNowTS]

Those Donald Duck ears are amazing! 😁💙

[@bobbowser2876]

Agreed! Might be my favorite Rob ears yet! 💙

[@TheMainStreetBear]

Rob got them in the parks, they are part of Donald's 90th anniversary collection. Thank you so much for watching!

[@clairefinley910]

thank you for this video! I have a Sept trip and am so happy to have this prep

[@jmalkin55]

Love your videos! Question... I saw during the Q & A someone asked if 2 people in your planning party could book lightning lanes at the same time for 2 different parks. So at 7 am 7 days out, can I book for our arrival day at Hollywood studios and my daughter book for our 2nd day at Magic Kingdom at the same time? And if so how do you handle paying for the multipass for the entirety of your stay if you are both booking simultaneously? Do we need to purchase the multipasses ahead? Thanks so much for your help!

[@gracelanz1368]

I level of detail and thought put into each video is incredible and very much appreciated. You guys are amazing! One question for you! If you have early entry access as a resort guest (8:30am for us), is it possible to modify rides during that early entry window once you have tapped into the park? When you are at home booking, hypothetically what is the earliest time slot available for a lightening lane?

[@jusantos6824]

Robert just an information about the selections from outside the us, here is Brazil we are using a very easy trick to schedule from here. If you go to disney app settings and unlable the option of shared location and do the same thing in your Phone settings you are able to book from Brazil no problem. Not sure if it works wouldwide but is worth the shot! Thank you for your vídeos! ❤

[@paulasanchezmejorada933]

Woohoo! Tokyo! Have fun!

[@TheMainStreetBear]

It's been amazing! Thank you so much for watching ☺

[@alishal.176]

SO HELPFUL! I'm getting a trip together for 14 people and my mind is bumble with all the planning needed. When I went to book dining reservations we found out 7 people was the max per reservation. Luckily, my husband hopped on to book for the remaining 7, but our reservations are still at little apart. Hopefully, we get that sorted when we get there! As he said at 51:38ish, can I book lightning lanes for my whole party of 14?? Disney really needs to streamline this process because nothing works smoothly unless you are a single family smaller unit.

[@nurspreneurnay]

I’m nervous coming for Christmas as a non resort guest 🙈

[@ItsameBS]

At Epcot I think Frozen is a more important Tier 1 LL to get first. It seems easier to get a LL at the park for Remy during your visit. The only time that changes is if Frozen is your Early Entry attraction, then Remy LL would be more important.

[@jessicalorenzo324]

So incredibly grateful for your videos you have helped my trips tremendously! I did have one question if possible. We will have a party of 5 but my dad has health conditions and won’t be able to ride all the rides. Is there a way to book some rides for him with our group and leave him out of some bookings? Trying to figure out the best way to include him in some and not in all of them

[@MarthaJOHNSON-iu4wk]

Great video

[@TheMainStreetBear]

Thank you so much for watching ☺

[@JanelleBey]

Is there a way to watch the prebookings without a park ticket? In other words, can I check to see what's available 7 days out from today to get a feel for what I might expect during my trip?

[@KacieMulhern]

Hi Rob! I just saw this question online and knew just where to go to ask ;) If you tap into a ride at 8:15 (like at AK, 8am opening) can you book at another park that isn’t open until 9?

[@savanahbarrett6528]

AK opens and hour before HS. My plan is to rope drop AK and the. Hop to HS. I don’t want to purchase LLMP for HS and have to wait to use LL until we get there bc by then the other tier 1 rides may be way far out or gone. If I book the earliest LLMP at AK let’s say at 8:10a, do I have to wait to switch to other tier 1 rides at HS until that park opens or does the initial scan at AK still unlock it?

[@kateshields5670]

Thanks for all this information. Sadly missed this live. We are from UK .I will have to buy a MLL for the whole family knowing my husband will not want to ride particular rides he may even still be at the hotel. So how do we navigate this if he is linked to us as i dont think we can cancel him?..its all or nothing but he is a possible for some rides depnding on how he is feeling on the day. He is a great bag carrier but we also want him to skip some rides with us where he can and go on some family non spinning rides😢 dont want to discount him completely although understand its not value for money.

[@matpmod]

Thanks for the brilliant info. Where did you get your Baymax ears? I love them and want a pair of my own!

[@TheMainStreetBear]

Thank you so much for watching! Rob got them at EPCOT but we have seen them in all the different parks, even at Disney Springs.

[@sadiakhan9300]

Hi Rob, really appreciate your videos. We’re visiting for just two days Feb 2025, please suggest strategies for park hopping between EPCOT and Hollywood Studios with Multipass and SinglePass. Our top priorities are Remy, Test Track (if open), Gaurdians, Soarin’, Slinky Dog, Rock N Roller, Tower of Terror, Runaway Railway and Rise of the Resistance. We are also hoping to catch Fantasmic. ☺️ Thank you so much! 💕 P.S. We’re staying at Pop century so we’ll have access to the Skyliner.

[@MossFamilyTravels]

I personally would not hop between those two parks with that list in mind. You have so many bangers on the list it is going to be challenging, not impossible but challenging. Honestly if you want any hope for Slinky you’re gonna have to use that as your multipass pick. Guardians is on Single pass and so is rise so buy both of those. I would rope drop Remy. Then head to Soarin’. If you do not mind splitting your party up I would do Test Track in the single rider line then I would pick an early Guardians. The problem comes in 2 points. Orlando weather is unpredictable and usually downpours in the afternoon. Slinky will close if there is lightning in the area. As soon as you tap into one of your HS rides on MP you can book another. Rise do as soon as you can when you get to the park because you look at Rise funny and it goes down. They have a tendency to not bring things back up if it is late in the day too. So, keep that in mind. Honestly if you’re there for just 2 days I would enjoy 1 park or the other otherwise you will be running around like chickens with your heads cut off and will not be able to enjoy yourself.

[@sadiakhan9300]

@@MossFamilyTravels thank you so much for your suggestions! 🙏🏼 much appreciated! My crazy plan was to 1) book Slinky dog and Tower of terror in advance and buy single pass for Rise and possibly also for Guardians. 2)Rope drop Remy since we’ll be using the Skyliner 3)instead of walking across EPCOT I was thinking to hop back on the skyliner and head to HS so we can start scanning rides and booking more LL’s 4)once through all the HS rides we want, head to Epcot to do Soarin’ and Guardians (Test Track will most likely still be closed). 5) Hoping to have some downtime at this point so go rest at the hotel 6) Head over to HS at night in time for Fantasmic. 😅 You’re right, it might be a bit much! lol

[@xaviermunguia7571]

Can two adults in the same group book different days at the same time?

[@TheMainStreetBear]

Yes, that's how Rob and I did it the first time we tried the new system. Just make sure that your whole party is linked together on the app. Thanks for watching ☺

[@MrMaxRebos]

I am at the park too right now

[@TheMainStreetBear]

That's awesome! What has been your favorite area so far? For Rob and I, it was Fantasy Springs.

[@dagobertofigueroa8392]

I am wondering if the good neighbor hotels have the benefit of purchsing the lightning lane at 7;days or 3 days.

[@triton6127]

Heigh Ho! Looks like it’s just Disney resorts, Swan, Dolphin, Dolphin Reserve and Shades of Green for the 7 day perk. All others have 3 days.

[@AnnFlanagan-iq6bj]

The younger members of our group want the more aggressive rides like roller coasters, but us middle-aged folks prefer the tamer rides. Any suggestions about booking strategies?

[@triton6127]

Are you wanting to stay together as a group all day? Or are you willing to split up?

[@NXGNfamily]

Hi. I’m going to Disney World for the first time this year. I booked All Star Movie from Monday to Friday. Then tried to add Sunday but ASM was not available so I booked All Star Music. I had a chat with CM and he said that 7 days before the Sunday I will only be able to book LL for Sunday, then I’ll be able to book for Monday to Friday 7 days before Monday, because I have two separate reservations. Is that true? (Sorry English is my second language so I’m not sure if I’m explaining it correctly). I was expecting to book the whole Sunday to Friday 7 days before the Sunday. Have anyone experienced the same situation? Thank you in advance.

[@emthecactus]

Omg I’m so early!! Hey Rob! Do you have a PO Box so we can send you gifts?
