Disney World Genie+ & Lightning Lane 2024 Guide: Best Tips & FAQ

This guide to Walt Disney World Genie+ and Lightning Lanes dives into the “paid FastPass”, how to use the Disney Genie Plus service, tips on which rides you should use Genie+ for, which rides have Lightning Lanes at Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Hollywood Studios, and Animal Kingdom, and how you can take advantage of loopholes in Genie Plus system to maximize your Walt Disney World day.

Walt Disney World Genie+ is a complete replacement for the previous FastPass Plus service. The Genie Plus service allows guests to make attraction “reservations” from the Walt Disney World Genie Plus app. Guests then return to the Lightning Lane for the specific attractions at the designated time. There are over 40 attractions that can be reserved through the Genie Plus service.

The Genie Plus service is quite a departure from the FastPass+ service where guests would schedule attractions far in advance. This new system is much more like the MaxPass system previously available at Disneyland with a few tweaks. This 2024 guide to Disney Genie Plus at Walt Disney World will dive into all the specifics you need to know as you get ready to make Lightning Lane reservations with Genie Plus.

What is Disney Genie+ at Walt Disney World? What Are Lightning Lanes?

Walt Disney World Genie+ gives guests access to shorter queues for popular attractions called Lightning Lanes. Guests pay for the Genie+ service and then can book reservations for the Lightning Lane at select rides. There is also an option to purchase Lighting Lanes a la carte without paying for the entire Genie+ service but this is only for a small number of rides. There is also a multitude of free features guests can use on the app which is just referred to as Genie.

Is your head spinning yet? Let's start with a helpful breakdown of the lingo:

• Genie: the FREE planning tool that is built into the My Experience App. Genie can help you plan your day and make suggestions for trip planning.
• Genie+: this is the PAID service that gives guests access to shorter lines for popular rides. Guests staying on-site can book their first Lightning Lane at 7AM and book their second one once they redeem the first ride OR 120 minutes have passed since park opening.
• Lightning Lane: this is the name of the shorter line you pay for access to. Most rides will have two lines: a regular line and the Lightning Lane. The Lightning Lane will always be a much shorter wait, often less than 20 minutes and sometimes as quick as a walk-on.
• Individual Lightning Lane: this is the name of the five rides (yes, that's it!) that you can purchase access to without needing to buy Genie+. These rides are purchased separately which means you can pay for access to these rides AND Genie+ at the same time.

How much is Disney World Genie+?

Disney Genie+ starts at $15.98 per day per person after tax at Walt Disney World and can go as high as $39 per person, per day. This is actually $15 less per day than the starting price per person of the Disney Genie+ service at Disneyland. However, the most common price is around $25 per day and it's rare to see the cost of Genie+ on the lowest end of the spectrum.

Walt Disney World also prices Genie+ differently for those with 1 Park Per Day Tickets and Genie+ prices are based on the park you are visiting. So the cost of Genie+ for Magic Kingdom could be different than for less popular parks like Animal Kingdom.

Walt Disney World Genie+ also includes complimentary downloads of on-ride photos taken while on an attraction. This perk is only available for photos taken on days guests have purchased Genie+. This doesn't include photos taken by PhotoPass photographers.

You can see how this pricing stacks up with your full Walt Disney World budget in our guide to the cost of a Walt Disney World vacation.

How much are Individual Lightning Lanes?

For the Individual Lightning Lanes, these costs vary based on the attraction. These rides are NOT included in the general Genie+ purchase but you also do NOT need to have purchased Genie+ to purchase these. Access for Individual Lightning Lanes will vary depending on the day (busier times of the year will create higher prices) but you can average anywhere from $10 to $20 per person, per ride, depending.

Individual Lightning Lanes are often the most popular rides in the park like the NEW TRON at Magic Kingdom and Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind at EPCOT. So it often feels “worth it” to pay for this access.

What happened to FastPass?

FastPass was discontinued and replaced by Genie+ at Walt Disney World. Genie+ is very different from FastPass as this is now a paid service (FastPass was free) and you cannot currently make reservations for rides in advance. But this will change in the future, keep reading for more information!

Can I Book Genie+ In Advance?

You cannot purchase the Genie+ service until the morning of your trip. Once you make that purchase in the My Experience App, you will be able to book your first Lightning Lane at 7AM if you are staying on-site at a Walt Disney World hotel. Guests staying off-site will need to wait until the enter the park to book their first Lightning Lane.

However,Disney has teased an upcoming update to Genie+ at Walt Disney World in 2024 that would allow guests to pre-plan their Lightning Lane bookings before the day of their visit. Once this change is implemented, guests will be able to pre-book their Lightning Lanes and purchase Genie+ before their park day. It may also include a method to make individual Lightning Lane selections in advance.

This is in response to guest feedback as many guests miss the ability to pre-book their reservations for attractions. In the days of FastPass+, guests staying at Walt Disney World hotels could prebook their FastPass (which we now call Lightning Lane!) selections before they arrived. This means you would enter the park and already have 2-3 rides planned for the day which was a large advantage for hotel guests.

As of now, there have been no further details about this 2024 update for Genie+ or a starting date. I imagine we will see this return to pre-planning to model the prior FastPass+ program which gave this perk to hotel guests.

Genie+ Can Become Expensive During Peak Travel Times

Genie+ has hit record high prices during the last holiday season and this is a trend we expect to continue during upcoming peak seasons at Walt Disney World in 2024. This includes three-day weekends (think President's Day, Labor Day, etc.), Spring Break, and the holiday season. The highest we have seen Genie+ reach is up to $39 per person for popular parks like Magic Kingdom.

Disney has changed the structure of Genie Plus to have variable pricing for the different theme parks so the most popular parks, Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios, will see higher costs during peak travel times. This only applies to guests that purchase One Park Per Day Walt Disney World tickets, guests with Walt Disney World Park Hopper Tickets will pay a set price to include access to all the theme parks.

Genie Plus can also sell out during peak travel times of the year. This is actually a good thing because if too many people are using Genie+ then the service becomes useless. Walt Disney World also needs to price the service at a level that not everyone will purchase it to ensure that not every single guest purchases the service (this renders the service useless).

Park Hopping with Genie+ at Disney World

Park Hopping restrictions are NO LONGER in place at Walt Disney World which means you can park hop at any time you want which has greatly increased the flexibility for Genie+.

This means you can now book Lightning Lane return times for other parks for the current available time. Previously, it would default to a later time after park hopping was allowed. This is only available for guests with a Park Hopper ticket.

What Disney World Rides Have Lightning Lanes Where You Can Use Genie Plus?

There are over forty Disney Genie Plus rides across the four Walt Disney World theme parks. You will choose the next available time on the day of your visit for a variety of experiences and attractions using the Lightning Lane entrance.

Every guest, regardless of where you are staying, can book their first Lightning Lane reservation at 7AM each day of their visit. You can book another ride reservation once 120 minutes has passed OR you've redeemed your previous reservation- whichever comes first. Keep in mind that even though you book your ride reservation at 7AM, that 120-minute rule won't kick in until the park officially opens.

All attractions offer traditional standby or virtual queues with Lightning Lanes receiving priority. Below is the full list of Genie+ Lightning Lanes for all four theme parks that are included with the Genie+ service. The two most popular rides to use Genie+ on at each park is in bold.

All of these attractions and shows are included with your Disney Genie+ purchase. You can reserve a Genie+ Lightning Lane reservation once every two hours or once you've redeemed your Lightning Lane reservation.

You can only ride each attraction once using the Genie+ selection. If you want to ride something again you will need to use the standby line. It's also important to know that if you don't show up for the specific time slot you reserved without canceling it, Genie+ won't let you book another one and consider it as your one ride. So if you can't make a reservation, make sure you cancel it so you can book another one later!

You can also redeem your reservation up to five minutes before the arrival time.

Disney Genie+ Lightning Lanes for Premium Attractions

Lightning Lanes Individual Attractions service is an option for guests to purchase one-off access to the most popular Walt Disney World attractions on the same day of their visit.

You do NOT need to purchase the regular Genie+ service to purchase access to these rides as they are all priced completely separately.

This service is limited to two attractions per theme park which include:

 Individual Lighting Lane- Magic Kingdom

• Seven Dwarfs Mine Train
• TRON Lightcycle Run

 Individual Lighting Lane- EPCOT

• Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind

 Individual Lighting Lane- Hollywood Studios

• Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance

Individual Lighting Lane- Animal Kingdom

• Avatar Pandora Flight of Passage

Guests can book for everyone in their party and prices will vary for each attraction depending on day and wait times. You can book access for up to two Individual Lighting Lanes per day. You will be given the choice of what time you want to ride when you make your purchase in the Genie app.

PERK for on-site Walt Disney World hotel guests- Guests staying on-site at Walt Disney World can book their upcharge Lightning Lane reservations at 7AM while guests staying off-site have to wait until the park opens.

Average Pricing

Here is an example of pricing per person so you can see what to expect:

• Rise of the Resistance: $15 weekday and weekend
• Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind $14 weekday / $17 weekend
• Avatar Pandora Flight of Passage: $11 weekday/$14 weekend
• Seven Dwarfs Mine Train: $10 weekday/$12 weekend

Of course, if you're visiting during a peak travel week like Thanksgiving or Christmas week you can expect to pay the higher tier of pricing even if it's a weekday. The price is influenced most by crowd levels but this is an average of the trends we've seen in price.

How to Use Genie+ at Walt Disney World

All of this information can certainly be overwhelming but it's worth the time to figure out so you can avoid standing in long lines on your Walt Disney World vacation. Genie+ is pretty easy to use once you get the hang of it so first let's start with the basic rules of Genie+ and then go through a sample step-by-step day in the park.

Genie+ Rules 

• Walt Disney World hotel guests can purchase Genie+ and book their first Lightning Lane ride at 7AM.
• Walt Disney World hotel guests can purchase Individual Lightning Lanes starting at 7AM.
• Off-site hotel guests can purchase Genie+ and book all their Lightning Lanes once they enter the park.
• Once you book a Lightning Lane, you cannot book another one until you redeem the existing one OR 120 minutes have passed.
• Guests can only book two Individual Lightning Lanes per day.
• Guests can hold an Individual Lightning Lane and regular Genie+ Lightning Lane reservation at the same time.
• You can only use Genie+ on an attraction once per day. For example, if you use Genie+ on Space Mountain, you cannot book it again that day.

Genie+ Example Day at EPCOT

Since most guests stay on-site at Walt Disney World, let's go through an example morning of using Genie+ for someone staying at a Walt Disney World hotel and going to EPCOT.

• Purchase Genie+ and book Remy's Remy's Ratatouille Adventure reservation at 7AM. If you're quick, you will likely get the first time of the day from 9AM to 10AM.
• Purchase Individual Lightning Lane to Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind at 7AM. You will get to pick from available times throughout the day, I would pick a time around noon to ride other attractions in the morning.
• Enter EPCOT at 9AM and ride Remy's Ratatouille Adventure.
• Book the next Lightning Lane reservation for Frozen Ever After. Since this is a popular ride, you may end up with a later return time. If the time is more than 120 minutes out, set an alarm so you can book your next ride reservation once 120 minutes pass.
• Ride Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind when your return time is ready.

This is just a few short steps but you can get the idea. Once you get the hang of it, you're just looking at My Experience App to grab your next available Lightning Lane.

I highly recommend you read through our extensive Walt Disney World theme park strategy and touring guides page for each theme park which includes my advice on how to best use Genie+!

Essential Walt Disney World Lightning Lane & Genie+ Tips

Now that Genie+ has been around for awhile we've had time to find the best tips and tricks on how to use it.

Use Genie+ on the most high demand rides

For some guests, trying to ride as many rides as possible with Genie+ can become stressful and the better strategy is to snag reservations for rides that will end up with the longest waits in the park.

Always have a reservation booked

Have a lunch reservation? Heading back to the hotel for a break? Always make sure you have a ride reservation in place beforehand. You can book your first reservation at 7AM everyday so be prepared to book one at the beginning of the day! There are Walt Disney World Genie Plus refills in the morning so if you aren't seeing anything you want right around 7AM, be sure to check again about 15-20 minutes later for an additional drop of reservations.

Refresh, refresh, refresh!

Keep refreshing the app (pull down on the screen to reload it) to check for Genie+ reservations that may have ‘sold out' or are too late in the day… as people cancel, times will get released back to the pool for everyone else to grab.

Only pay for what you need

Individual Lightning Lane attractions do not require the purchase of Genie+ since they are a separate purchase. For parks like Epcot with limited high demand attractions, you may be better off just purchasing the individual attraction access.

Know when to book next

You can book your next ride reservation once 120 minutes have passed or you've redeemed your ride reservation. Some rides book up really fast, especially in Hollywood Studios (looking at you, Slinky Dog!) so try to make that reservation before you eat lunch, take a break or have other plans in the park.

Know the grace period

Typically, you have a grace period of five minutes before your reservation officially expires. Try tapping your Magic Band or discussing with a cast member but be nice- Disney is not required to allow you to redeem your pass if you missed your arrival time!

Multiple Experience Passes

If you have a ride reservation and the ride breaks down you will be given a Multiple Experience pass which you can use on any attraction within the same ‘tier' of what you originally booked. The app will tell you which rides qualify!

When to Use Genie+ at Walt Disney World

Most guests want to know: when can I skip Genie+ and just use standby? When should I use Genie+ at Disney World? This will all depend on the time of year you visit but generally, some lines remain consistently more popular than others. This list will help you focus on what is included in your $15 per day Genie+ access.

Remember: the most in-demand attractions are separate from what's included with Disney Genie+ and you pay separately for.

Magic Kingdom

Yes, you definitely need Genie+ for Magic Kingdom due to the sheer amount of rides that are in this park! You will get the most for your money purchasing Genie+ at Magic Kingdom.

You should book either Big Thunder Mountain for your first reservation time- not just because this ride is popular but because the weather can often shut this ride down making it a must to do it early. This is a good rule of thumb anytime you're visiting Walt Disney World, those afternoon rain storms can come in quickly and most outdoor rides will stop until the storm passes.

Pro tip: stay late until park closing! I have walked on to many rides at Walt Disney World in the late evening even popular ones like Space Mountain, Peter Pan and Pirates of the Caribbean!

Hollywood Studios

You should always book Slinky Dog Dash first in this park since it is easily the most popular ride! The Genie+ reservations often run out (which can happen!) within an hour for this ride so you should prioritize this if you don't want to wait in a long line. This ride easily has the longest line of all rides in the park (aside from Rise of the Resistance) so I would always use it for Genie+ before others.

Booking Slinky Dog Dash first will likely give you a return time beyond two hours which means you can't book other rides the first two hours of the park opening. In this case, I would recommend going right to Tower of Terror and Rockin' Rollercoaster. You can usually ride these two rides with the lowest waits of the day early in the morning and since they're right next to each other it's easy to finish both within the first hour of the park being open.

Genie+ is a must for Hollywood Studios-especially since it's such a popular park with fewer rides than Magic Kingdom… meaning the lines tend to be longer here.

Animal Kingdom

The top two tier attractions on the included Genie+ list for Animal Kingdom are Kilimanjaro Safaris and Na'vi River Journey. I always try to do Kilimanjaro Safaris for Animal Kingdom first just because the animals will be more active! I would book this ride first just for that reason. And then at rope drop, I would go ride Expedition Everest (which is an attraction that is a separate purchase!) because it will always have a small line first thing in the morning.

Animal Kingdom is a park where you could get away with skipping the $15 per day purchase of Genie+ and instead buy the individual attractions (Flight of Passage is a must!) which could save you money. If you are starting your day at Animal Kingdom, you can easily ride both Kilimanjaro Safari and Na'vi River Journey in the morning with no wait!

Epcot

Remy's and Frozen Ever after are easily the most popular attractions in the included Genie+ list for Epcot so I would make your reservation for Remy's before the other rides. After Remy's, the next most popular would be Frozen Ever After and the rest can usually have low waits during most times of the day.

This is also a park where you could skip purchasing Genie+ if you're just doing a 1-park per day and not park hopping.

Walt Disney World Genie Plus and Lightning Lane Frequently Asked Questions

Let's dive into some of the frequently asked questions on Genie Plus at Walt Disney World we have been answering recently.

Can I make Genie Plus reservations 60 days in advance?

No. Walt Disney World Genie Plus reservations can only be made for the same day you are experiencing this attraction. This is the most dramatic difference from the Walt Disney World FastPass Plus offering.

How do I purchase Walt Disney World Genie Plus?

Genie Plus can be purchased on a daily basis each day of your trip or added in advance for the length of your trip. Either way the service costs the same $15.98 per day. It is very simple to add the service to your tickets each day of your trip, but if you know you want the amenity for each day there is no reason you shouldn't add it in advance.

Do we really need to make Disney Genie Plus selections at 7 am? Is there a true impact?

Some attractions will sell out for the day during the first 7 am release of Genie Plus slots. By waiting to make a reservation until you are in the parks you are giving up on an additional potential attraction. We do recommend getting up and getting your selection made.

If you do miss the exact 7 am window, there will be more reservation slots released throughout the morning.

What are Genie Plus refills?

Warning – this is an intermediate to expert level Disney Genie Plus tip.

Additional time slots are added for some attractions throughout the morning and day. Starting around 7:05 am and lasting until 7:25 am, additional ride slots may be added for attractions that are earlier in the day than the initial drop for the attraction which will likely have return times shoot late in the afternoon right after the service opens for guests to make Genie Plus selections at 7 am.

There are lots of nuances to this trick, but it really works. We are going to share more in a separate article soon.

When can I make another Disney Genie Plus reservation?

Guests can make another Disney Genie Plus reservation either after they have scanned into their first reservation or 120 minutes* after they made their first selection. This 120 minutes gets tricky because there is an asterisks on that time. The 120 minutes starts once the park opens so if your first Genie Plus reservation isn't until after 2 hours post park opening your first time to make another Genie Plus selection will be 2 hrs after the park officially opens. If you follow the tips here to make an early selection you shouldn't end up with a Genie Plus slot more than 2 hours after park opening.

How early and late can I arrive to Disney Genie Plus slots?

The Walt Disney World Genie Plus system is built to allow for guests to scan into Genie Plus attractions up to 5 minutes before the stated window and 15 minutes after the state window. Anything beyond these times is up to the discretion of the Cast Member.

Can guests choose return times for an attraction?

No. Just like the original paper FastPass system, you cannot pick a return time for a Genie Plus reservation.

Does Genie Plus at Walt Disney World include unlimited PhotoPass downloads?

No, at Walt Disney World unlimited PhotoPass downloads are not available as part of the Genie Plus package. Disneyland Genie Plus does include unlimited PhotoPass downloads.

Will Disney Genie Plus increase the length of the lines for attractions?

No. In fact, the queues for attractions should all be shorter now than they were during the FastPass+ era because fewer guests are utilizing the paid service and you can only ride each attraction once per day using the service.

Is there any Disney Vacation Club or Annual Passholder add on for Disney Genie Plus?

No. Disney Vacation Club members and Walt Disney World Annual Passholders are able to add Disney Genie Plus on a daily basis, but they are not able to add the service on for a set yearly rate.

Does Genie Plus sell out at Walt Disney World?

The Genie Plus service has sold out at Walt Disney World multiple times. Read our full analysis of Genie Plus selling out at Walt Disney World.

What is Disney Genie? Is it separate from Disney Genie Plus?

You do NOT have to pay for Genie+ to experience rides at Walt Disney World as each ride will still offer its same standby line or virtual boarding queue in the case of Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind. Some guests will choose not to utilize the new Disney Genie+ service and that is ok.

The free version of Disney Genie in the app has a number of itinerary planning tips and suggestions, but we have found these suggestions to be largely convoluted and unhelpful. In success, a Walt Disney World itinerary planning service that was responsive to inputs including your interests, weather, crowd levels, and wait times would be very popular but this service is not yet at that level. For example, in Magic Kingdom I have seen the itinerary builder recommend attractions that would have low wait times throughout the day like the carousel in the morning rather than encouraging you to rope drop Seven Dwarf's Mine Train. You will be far better off familiarizing yourself with our tips for using Genie Plus listed above and reading our general Walt Disney World strategies for touring rather than messing around with the Disney Genie touring itinerary builder in the app.

The most helpful aspects within the Disney Genie Plus service are:

• Mobile order option
• Restaurant wait list, check in and reservations (this was actually very helpful during our most recent trip)
• Attraction virtual queues (available at select attractions)
• Virtual queue options

Disney has mentioned they've also been forward thinking about cell phone battery usage when developing these features. Using Genie will not continuously drain your cellphone battery as it will only reoptimize your plan when opening the app, it will not be running the background. So this shouldn't have too large of an impact on your cell batteries.

What about the DAS program for guests with disabilities?

The existing DAS program received new enhancements such as the ability to pre-enroll in the program before arrival and for DAS participants to select attractions from the app. This is a great improvement for the DAS program because sometimes it can be tricky for guests to find areas where the Guest Services cast member are located to receive a new DAS time.

Guests will be able to utilize live video chat to register for the program with a cast member up to 30 days in advance of their visit. During the video chat, guests can also select two experiences per day using the new DAS advance planning option.

The same in-person DAS program will remain so it's not required to use the app if you don't wish to! You can read more about options for guests with disabilities at Walt Disney World in our guide.

What else is included with the new Disney Genie+ service at Walt Disney World?

Guests are also given additional perks who purchase the Disney Genie+ service at Walt Disney World. The other perks that Disney has shared so far include:

• Augmented Reality Lenses for use throughout Walt Disney World
• Exclusive behind the scenes audio tours with appearances from Walt Disney Imagineers that make the Disney magic

What special perks are included for Walt Disney World Hotel Guests?

Walt Disney World on-property hotel guests will have the opportunity to purchase some of the limited Lightning Lane access before non-hotel guests at 7AM each day. The Disney Genie planning service will also integrate with the Walt Disney World hotels to provide recommendations to start your day.
