Editorial Summary

Trevor provides a comprehensive guide of time-saving strategies for visiting Disneyland in 2023. He emphasizes the importance of arriving for rope drop to utilize the golden hour when lines are shortest, while advising against rushing immediately to the most popular attractions. For resort guests, he notes the benefit of early entry. The creator shares specific insider hacks for rides like Haunted Mansion and Star Wars Rise the Resistance to bypass portions of the queue, and suggests choosing left-hand lanes at attractions with split lines. Other strategies include waiting near rides that are temporarily closed to catch their reopening, utilizing parades and fireworks to avoid crowds, and purchasing dining packages for nighttime spectaculars. He also covers the efficiency of mobile ordering through the Disneyland app and the necessity of advanced dining reservations. To further reduce wait times, he recommends using Genie Plus, purchasing individual lightning lanes for specific attractions, utilizing single rider lines, and employing rider swap for families. Finally, he suggests saving shopping for the end of the day and visiting during off-peak seasons to maximize both ride time and budget.
