TRON Lightcycle / Run is opening in Magic Kingdom SOON (in fact, it’s opening sooner than we thought!), and a new ride means CHANGES in other parts of the park.

TRON Lightcycle / Run by night.
The TRON coaster will make use of a virtual queue and will also have an Individual Lightning Lane option if you want to pay to skip the line. Previously, when a new ride has opened in a park, the existing ride that used an Individual Lightning Lane swapped to be part of the normal Disney Genie+. Now, Disney has released an update on what will happen in Magic Kingdom once TRON opens.
Currently, Seven Dwarfs Mine Train is the only ride in Magic Kingdom that uses an Individual Lightning Lane. There are several rides that are part of Disney Genie+, but only Seven Dwarfs had the pay-per-ride option. According to Scott Gustin on Twitter, Seven Dwarfs will NOT be switching to the regular Disney Genie+ once TRON opens.

Seven Dwarfs Mine Train
Scott said, “Seven Dwarfs Mine Train will remain available for purchase via Individual Lightning Lane when TRON soft opens on March 20 and officially opens on April 4.” So once TRON opens, there will be TWO pay-per-ride attractions in Magic Kingdom.

Seven Dwarfs Mine Train Lightning Lane
Remember that Disney Genie+ is the new(ish) way to skip the lines at many Disney attractions. You pay a set price (between $15 and $29 per person, per day) and then reserve Lightning Lanes throughout the day so that you’re able to bypass the standby lines. The most popular rides in each park, however, are part of the pay-per-ride system instead of the normal Genie+.

Seven Dwarfs Mine Train Lightning Lane
For these rides, you must pay a separate, extra fee in order to skip the line. Currently, the pay-per-ride attractions are Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewins, Avatar — Flight of Passage, and Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance. Adding TRON Lightcycle / Run into the mix will mean that Magic Kingdom is the only park with two pay-per-ride attractions.

TRON Lightcycle / Run queue
TRON Lightcycle / Run officially opens on April 4th, 2023, but it will have a soft opening from March 20th through April 2nd. It will NOT be open on April 3rd.

It was always going to be two ILL per park so nothing new really. Just Disney making more pennies.
I don’t mind paying. What I mind is having to be a phone phreak all phreaking day long starting at 7AM. Not only for rides, but even for restaurant menus! Not sure I’ll be going back under these circumstances.
