Disney’s Lightning Lane system has a lot of rules, both official and unofficial. However, some are meant to be broken.
Before we get started, a quick rundown on Disney’s current Lightning Lane offerings: Lightning Lane Multi Pass allows guests to plan ahead of their visit and choose up to 3 Multi Pass experiences and arrival windows in a theme park (7 days in advance of their stay for Disney hotel guests and 3 days in advance for non-hotel guests).
Lightning Lane Single Pass allows guests to “Save time in line with a Lightning Lane Single Pass for one of our most in-demand attractions—those not available with Lightning Lane Multi Pass.” Single Passes are eligible to be purchased at the same time as their Multi Pass equivalents.
Finally, the Lightning Lane Premier Pass “allows one-time entry to each Lightning Lane experience in a theme park — to enjoy at your leisure that day,” which can once again be purchased beginning in the same purchase window. So, with that out of the way, what “rules” are meant to be broken?
