Creator's Key Takeaways

please please please do not use your lightning lane or first thing in the morning at 8 A.M it will be a major waste

Genie plus requires the Disneyland app so if you do not have the Disneyland app you need to download it

I highly recommend that you modify your reservation instead of canceling

make sure you bring a phone charger now this is not a new tip for the channel

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Do not use Lightning Lane at 8 AM; book your first selection for 9 AM instead
✓Pre-purchase Genie+ to save money if you plan to use it every day
✓Modify reservations instead of canceling to keep multiple active Lightning Lanes
✓Pin only one or two preferred attractions to the top of the Tip Board to avoid clutter
✓Bring a phone charger or use Fuel Rods to keep your phone powered for Genie+ usage
