Visiting a Disney theme park can be an exciting experience, especially if it’s your first time. However, your vacation may be a little less magical once you spend two hours in line for a two-minute roller coaster ride.
If you’re looking to spend less time in the queue and more time experiencing Disney’s many attractions, you may be wondering what options you have to skip the line.
Let’s take a look at the cost of Disney FastPass, which is now known as Genie+, and what you can expect to pay for Individual Lightning Lane tickets.
If you visited Disney any time in the last few decades, you likely saw hordes of little paper tickets scattered about the park.
These tickets, dubbed FastPasses, allowed guests to pick a later return time for an attraction and skip the general queue. FastPasses were free and available to everyone without limits.
FastPasses eventually went digital, then in 2020 were retired entirely. Instead, Disney debuted Genie+ in 2021, which is a paid service offering similar benefits to the old FastPass system.
Like FastPass, Genie+ allows guests to pick a return time for a later period, though you’ll face some restrictions.
You can only use Genie+ to skip the line once per attraction, and if your return time is much later in the day, you’ll need to wait a couple of hours before selecting another line-skip option.
