Disney World Lightning Lane Multi Pass EXPLAINED

[@jkimmie7488]

Wow, you explained the system so well. This has truly clarified the the Multi and Individual Lightning Lanes. I wonder how long it would have taken me to understand it without this video. Probably at the park while I was making a lot of bad decisions and mistakes. 😂

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@nicolestall5511]

Best video on this that I’ve seen ❤ thank you Nina. Love the tip to let a ride time expire 1st thing in morning to try n grab a 2nd tier 1 ride before they are gone

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

YAY! Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@libraryminnie5908]

Most excellent and clear explanation for someone who never used the later versions of fast pass but used DAS during those years. Fast forward 10 years, and am finally going again! DAS is not going to be a thing with the changes, so I need to soak up all the knowledge. I will be awaiting any of your updates, as you really hit this one out of the park. Thanks, Mermaid Nina!

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

YAY, happy to hear it! Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@Paladin-zn5vv]

Awesome!!! Thanks so much!! I'll be watching several other videos of yours. You're very thorough and cover all the bases. I appreciate your hard work and dedication.

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

Thanks! And thanks for watching/commenting!

[@whitetyger06]

Great info Nina! I was very confused when I first heard about it but your explanation definitely helped!

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

Glad it was helpful! More to come once its out. Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@korenkartes3065]

Such great explanation! Thanks Nina!

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

You are so welcome! Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@mattthorne330]

Great video, we're going on the 25th July and we're international, so we were really stuck! Very helpful video.

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

Sorry! But have FUN! Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@tlo11738]

I really hope they'll have more rides available day off. Also scared all times available will be in the afternoon and you have to wait all day to use them when you're trying to hop but still cant book in that new park since you havent used your morning ones. I wonder if Disney/guest services will let you cancel your first 3 if they're all in the afternoon but you park hop.

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

We really won't know until about 2-3 weeks into the new system. They need to work out the kinks and get the ball rolling. Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@jamiecus03]

You are so great at explaining system 🏰

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

Thank you! 😃 Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@jennifergratzer8219]

Thank you. Your explanation was clear and helpful. I like the visuals. I think your day job must be teacher. 😊

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

I was a teacher, lol. Day Job is Travel Agent :) Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@FamilyFoodReviewers]

We really need pricing. Waiting until the day it starts for pricing is so wrong

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

True!! But the price will be different each day, each park so really...we won't know the exact price we will pay until its our day to purchase, if that makes sense. Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@Marshall_2022]

Thank you for this video !

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

My pleasure! Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@chelsea9774]

Love your videos! We happen to be going to Magic Kingdom on July 25 after the switch happens. If young kids (under 36 inches) what Tier 1 and Tier 2 rides would you pick first? We are staying at a resort and usually try to jump on the most popular ride first before the park opens to save our Genie+ for another ride. It will be our first time at Magic Kingdom.

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

I am a fan of Jungle Cruise unless you want Tiana's. Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@sarahbennett7235]

I am looking forward to seeing your video when this is actually live and how it will work. I just watched your genie+ videos for our future trip and felt ready lol. I hope this works out. Back on our 2018 trip I could not book FOP 60 days out- that is my biggest concern. Rides being booked up before my 7 day window opens. I know FOP is individual LL now but same idea with the most popular tier 1 rides. We do not purchase LL as a family of 5 it gets way to pricey.

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

Yep and I assume dates, crowds, time of year will all affect it - so nothing is promised until its your morning. Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@candacev.3802]

I’m excited about the new system except that off site and on site don’t have the same amount of time to schedule. It seems like you should get the same perks if you are paying the same price for it.

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

Disney has always offered those staying on-site this perk. Its always been this way. Disney has great values and great prices which also give people the same perk.

[@candacev.3802]

@@MermaidNinaTravelsyes, I know that. But in the past the system was free. Now, if paying the same price for the same service, why make it better for some and not others?

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

@@candacev.3802 Guess they need to give perks to Resort Guests as they are paying $$$ to stay on Property.

[@marionarda2790]

And guess what if you are not American you wont get any at all . Even if you are onsite

[@dottyanna53]

Disney is having a difficult time filling their hotel rooms at their inflated prices, so they are offering this as an incentive to pay even more for this service. So now you pay for Multi-Pass AND you pay an extra $100-$400 a night to stay on property. Pretty slick.

[@dldfarm]

So you only get like 3 rides a day?? Or you get to choose 3 at a time all day? That’s all I need to know

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

You start with 3 - you can get more which I discuss in the video. Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@barefootpirate]

Are those single lane rides available for virtual que?

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

VQ changes and is currently only available for 3 rides. Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@jenniferadams-hill6711]

So if I'm park hopping do i just purchase for the first park in visiting? They're all different prices so i just want to make sure i plan accordingly.

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

Yep, the first park. Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@ThousanWhite]

Where's Luc Besson's check?

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

lol. Multipass! Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@matthazen3307]

I'd really like to see if using a VPN on my phone then using the app will allow me to make LL selections/purchase

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

YES, that is the hope. Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@MrMaxRebos]

Always informative

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

Thanks!!

[@zerokool-2058]

Is a long name also. They should have kept the name (Genie +)

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

It is! If they kept the Genie+ name, then needed to change the LINE to Genie+ LINE to make it easy. Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@MrMaxRebos]

Problem can be when your window to book is here all the tier 1 rides can already be sold out for your park day from people who booked days before your time.

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

True! Anything can happen with availability.

[@marymellone5548]

Thank you so much ❤.. I feel more prepared for my September vacation!!

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

Awesome! Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@reneehughes]

Love the new names, great video, thanks!

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

Me too! They make MORE sense. Genie+ - what even is that, lol. Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@RAEdio-Gaga]

When park hopping, once you use a pass and are ready to book a new pass at your second park, does it have to be a ride in the same "tier" as the one you just used? So, if I use a pass for small world can I make my next pass for Frozen, or do I only get to choose from tier 2 rides?

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

Any Tier...same as if staying in the same park. Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@TheHoody22]

Thank you so much for the video! Question, how long apart should you book your first 3 rides?

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

100% depends on ride goals, location, etc. Some can be back to back and others might be later in the day. Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@EliteJCTV]

My ticket is for 9/6-9/10 so I’m assuming I can book 3 days in advance. It’s crazy I was just mentioning to Scout Ears that I spent so much time learning Genie Plus now I have to unlearn and learn the new Multi Pass Lightening Lanes. Thank you for a more detailed breakdown.

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

Yes you can book your trips worth at ONE time. Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@EliteJCTV]

@@MermaidNinaTravels Thank you, will you be doing a on location walkthrough when the new program drops?

[@hollisthomas8881]

If you are a rope dropper & have the early entry for MK I would select Tiana & rope drop Peter Pan then by park open you have 2 top tier rides done or selected. I thought the same - select other rides ride after park opening to try for the other top tier rides.

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

YES! This was a previous FP technique but right now people RUN to 7 Dwarfs...so you have to pick, lol. So really, it depends on Ride Goals. Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@hollisthomas8881]

@MermaidNinaTravels Actually I would buy 7 Dwarfs (single pass) book Tiana's then rope drop Peter Pan.

[@hollisthomas8881]

@MermaidNinaTravels I like the other hack you mentioned. Our 1st park day we will be driving in & won't get to EPCOT until 1PM. Book Remy for 2pm & book 2 others we don't really care about for park opening - let those expire & as we are driving book Frozen & then Soaring. So we enter the park with all 3 top tier rides.

[@emileefloyd9874]

I’m looking forward to your video when this goes live! Ready to learn all that there is to know before our next trip! I was hoping they were going to change 7 dwarfs from individual lightning lane to a tier one for multi pass

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

Guess they have to do something, otherwise there would be like 7 rides in Tier 1 for Multi Pass. Still wish it was just ONE system of passes, but whatever, lol. Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@marionarda2790]

My app works just fine here in France . They just deliberatedly block this

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

Really? Hmmm... Perhaps its the booking system for the passes? Sorry. Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@marionarda2790]

@@MermaidNinaTravels 10 years ago i could book fastpass +

[@loricaruthers223]

Will all areas of MK open at early entry w multipass or still only Tomorrowland and Fantasyland still?

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

I assume they will keep Rope Drop as is. Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@hollyrambin1534]

so I don't have to use my first Tier1 ride before booking another Tier 1 ride? (I can use my lower tier ride first/scan into it then book a Tier 1 ride if available?)

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

Yep, any pass.

[@hollyrambin1534]

wondering if I am going to two parks in one day due to a special event (halloween party, christmas party, etc.) will the system allow me to book rides in both parkseven tough I dont have a park hopper ticket? ...Since you can go into the parks at 4 with a party ticket, even though the party (no lightning lanes needed) doesn't officially begin until 7?

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

I doubt it. It might be for Hopper Tickets only. Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@gerihall6683]

I am keeping an open mind but i will miss the LL. I averaged 5-7 LL each time i purchased it, and i went to Disney 4 times last year. I will miss the abilities to STACK because i liked to go to the park later in the day as a solo guest.

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

Yes, for those that mastered Genie+ - this will be a change. Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@kristabrowning4382]

What if we’re staying at 2 diff Disney hotels (split stay)? Or if we are going for over 7 days?

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

At this time, I assume its like Dining...might be split dates since split arrival dates. I never suggest Split Stays for this reason. We will find out soon enough, thanks for watching/commenting!

I never got to use genie+ because i wasnt at disney when it was a thing but just because of your videos i felt so ready hahaha. And now with you im sure ill be ready for this when i go for my 40th birthday in 2026 haha

You can get 3 rides but the rides you want can be sold out when you go to book then. 7 days or 3 days. It can happen regardless

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

Always. Fastpasses were like this too. Don't know what will be available until its your time. Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@Nursejustinreviews]

Won’t they have to release the prices 7 days before July 24? Because that’s when people who stay on property will be able to buy multi passes?

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

I think July 24 is the first day, otherwise the date would be 7 days before July 24?? Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@jmarkey86]

I think 7/31/24 will be the first guest who actually get to book 7 days in advance. 7/24-7/30 do t get the full 7 days of advantage.

[@lindacardona2449]

So let me ask if my 14 yr old and I want to ride Tiana Bayou around 9am but my husband and 8 yr old will not, husband is scared of heights and my 8 yr old it's not to fawn of big rides yet. Soooo in order to ride ut I have to select Tiana Bayou 7 days as we will be resort guest. Once the day if the park we can then modify so that both my husband and younger son can select Peter Pan for their first fancy ride if available? I know my husband will and young son will get on this ride only cause it's not as intense as Tiana Bayou. But just to confirm we can modify if ride us available? Second once we ride the first attractions we can now select another ride by my question is do we have to wait for the 120 minute rule? So let's say first ride at 9am, 2nd ride selected for 3pm and third ride selected for 7pm. So after riding the first ride I can automatically select a new ride without having to wait for the 120 minute rule?

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

You can modify immediately and I never mentioned a time frame, so that's immediately too. Thanks for watching/commenting!

[@lindacardona2449]

[@dieSterbendeGiraffe]

Ohh, I was waiting for your video on this, I really like your explanations. Would you consider doing a video on the new DAS, maybe with feedback from guests you booked for? Edit: my husband said VPN should work with the app too, I'll report back in late October haha!

[@MermaidNinaTravels]

[@dieSterbendeGiraffe]

@@MermaidNinaTravels that's a good point. I'm just so nervous about possibly not getting it when we'd never have booked a Disney trip without it. At least we still have a few months so we'll be saving some more money for LL.
