Disney’s NEW Lightning Lane Multi Pass- Was It Worth The Money?

Disney's NEW version of their skip-the-line service is here, in the form of Lightning Lane Multi Pass! We decided to give it a try on day one, at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom. We started the day later than a lot of guests would, around noon. How much could we book with the new system, and get done? Was it worth the money spent?

Who wants to get up at 7 am That is why I like universal You show up when you want and ride the rides without scrolling for ride times and hoping you get the ride

[@ACoupleOfParkHoppers]

It’s a little better now because you can book your days in advance. If you’re referencing Universal Express vs Disney’s system, Universals is less complicated but a lot more pricier, some days even out pricing your actual park admission!

[@dandicristina1389]

@@ACoupleOfParkHoppers I have express pass after 4pm premier pass

[@ACoupleOfParkHoppers]

@dandicristina1389 as do we, but an annual pass benefit is a different discussion! This is for one day/available all day at park open. Universals one day is available at park open and you pay a lot more for it.

[@dandicristina1389]

@@ACoupleOfParkHoppers ya you pay more but you are not on your phone scrolling hoping to get the ride

[@genuinemissc]

Seems like all the rides left after 7pm are all attractions you could ride after 7pm with a short wait...

[@ACoupleOfParkHoppers]

It definitely felt that way. Obviously could differ day to day. We chose to not book those attractions but those were at least available. But unless you spent the whole time refreshing your modification screen, you likely weren’t going to find one of the major attractions popping up.

[@billneville596]

Worth it for the whole day for sure. Selections definitely get less and less throughout the day. Will be interesting to see see what happens when people can book LL in advance.

[@ACoupleOfParkHoppers]

Well definitely try it again for an entire day and do another video, maybe at a different park!

[@alwaysbusy8516]

Thank you so much for taking us along with you today for the first day of the new lightning lane system. I appreciate you Talking about the price for MK and what to do if one of the ride on your Lightning lane temporarily closes.

[@ACoupleOfParkHoppers]

Thank you so much! Wanted to give a realistic look at the experience. You aren’t always going to get what you want, attractions do experience down time, and endless other factors.

[@angelcordero717]

GREAT, informative video, THANK YOU

[@ACoupleOfParkHoppers]

Thank you Angel!

[@metallicnole4514]

It’s gonna get a lot more complicated once hotel guests start snagging all the good rides/times. The first week won’t be a true representation of what we’re gonna be dealing with

[@ACoupleOfParkHoppers]

It’ll definitely be interesting. Only saving grace, FP+ used to be free and resort guests could book 60 days out for their whole trip, and there was almost always stuff available. Depends really on the inventory they put up as available.

[@AmazonEmails]

Thanks for the video! I think we’ll try it on our next trip!

[@ACoupleOfParkHoppers]

Yahoooo! Have fun!

[@micheleleso1181]

Would be interested to see all the standby wait times compared to what you did …. Can’t see the laugh floor booking out ???

[@ACoupleOfParkHoppers]

If we’d spent the whole day there, probably would’ve booked more of those type of attractions… but Laugh Floor, Philharmagic, It’s A Small World, Mad Tea Party were readily available all day, just chose not to do them in the time we had allotted. Thanks for the comment and thanks for the watch! Hope you’ll subscribe for more 😊

[@kuhnology8803]

Thank you for the review. It is still early first day use. It would be interesting to see were it is in seven days or a month from now. The process still seems like a lot of work, and elitist, sad to be poor in the park unless your a local with a season pass. I live by Disneyland and have a season pass, so if I only ride a few rides it is OK, I will be back. WCDB

[@ACoupleOfParkHoppers]

Resort guests definitely have an advantage with the 7 day window over every other ticket type. It’s definitely a lot of work to try and get everything you want during the day, but the work reaps benefits. Reminder that “fast pass” stuff is always voluntary when it’s an upcharge, and yeah it’ll be interesting to see how it works after some time like you said. Thanks for the comment!

[@rw4022]

Seems like a waste of money. You barely got anything without the hotel guest booking 7 days in advance….I can’t imagine the slim pickings for those booking in 7 days from now.

[@ACoupleOfParkHoppers]

Yeah only time will tell. Only saving grace is hotel guests used to get 60 days, and it was free. We’ll see what kind of inventory is available for each attraction. We did 6 top attractions in 6 hours, which isn’t bad, and definitely could’ve done more. Only real problem is the need to be glued to your phone all day refreshing… which was also what was needed in the FP+ days.

[@andrewworly5192]

With genie plus, you couldn’t ride more than once with LL. Can you reride with multi pass?

[@ACoupleOfParkHoppers]

Sadly no, wish that was something that came with the new program.

[@cre8ivjay]

What is the difference between the individual LL, the multi mass and the "Virtual queue"?

[@ACoupleOfParkHoppers]

MultiPass is the all encompassing FastPass system, one cost includes everything (excludes top ride in each park, which are sold as Single Pass) Virtual queue opens at 7am and 1pm (sometimes 6p for deluxe guests) and is complimentary. Currently offered. For Tiana, Guardians, and Tron.

[@cre8ivjay]

@@ACoupleOfParkHoppers Thank you!

[@gusnanney7213]

Question - do you have an Iphone or Android you are tracking this on?

[@ACoupleOfParkHoppers]

Booking lightning lanes? iPhone.

[@cathinieto39]

This doesn't sound great but thanks for posting.

[@ACoupleOfParkHoppers]

There are way too many variables to make a definitive opinion. The experience could be vastly different depending on the day. Would recommend giving it a try, to see how you like it yourself!

[@crickett6519]

This is ridiculous paying more the already high price to go to the park. I had enough of the ridiculous prices and greed. The parks are empty because of greed . Why bother walk around Disney Springs if you need Disney

[@ACoupleOfParkHoppers]

Thank you for your comment! One interesting thing is that out of all the theme parks, Disney’s fast pass program is the lowest cost. Definitely understand where you’re coming from though.

[@bruceeigsti5274]

no not worth it just nickel and dime you $29 plus cant use for tron? nuts

[@ACoupleOfParkHoppers]

We did 6 attractions on LL in the 6 hours we spent in the park. Thats $5 per attraction which we saved on average 30 minutes in line. 3 less hours we had to spend in line, is probably worth $29. Time is money, but totally understand the other point of view. Tron can be accessed via virtual queue at no cost as well. Thanks for the comment, Bruce!

[@sarahbennett7235]

@@ACoupleOfParkHoppers Agree to a point, as a family of 5 add about $150 per day and thats without any ILL. I think they are doing a disservice to families- we save all year to go which means we will skip shopping and table service meals.
