Key Moments

Editorial Summary

The creator provides a detailed review of the new Lightning Lane Multi Pass service at Walt Disney World, specifically testing its utility for guests not staying at a Disney resort. After experiencing significant technical difficulties and app crashes while at Animal Kingdom, the creator notes that the service can be highly stressful due to the constant need to monitor a phone for availability. However, the experience improved later in the day at Hollywood Studios, where more attraction times became available. The creator observes that Disney tends to release more availability around midnight and throughout the day, which can help non-resort guests secure better options. While the service offers the benefit of skipping lines and the ability to modify selections, the creator concludes that the system is complicated and would be more user-friendly if it were included in the park ticket price like the former FastPass Plus system. Ultimately, the creator suggests that while there is value in the service if booked strategically, guests may prefer standby lines if they wish to avoid the frustration of managing the app.

Creator's Key Takeaways

I did purchase lightning Lane multipass around 7:30 p.m. last night and this is what I started with here at Animal Kingdom it's pretty okay pretty decent but I want those times to be a lot closer together

I was able to make three new lightning Lanes here at Hollywood Studios with Tower of Terror Toy Story Mania and Mickey and Min which other than I think Mickey and Minnie Tower of Terror and Toy Story was not available last night and this morning

Creator's Tips & Advice

Purchase Lightning Lane the night before your park day or morning of for better availability
Wait 1.5 to 2 hours after park opening to make your first Lightning Lane selection
Continuously refresh the app throughout the day for dropped availability
Consider buying single passes instead of multi-pass if you only want specific attractions
