Lightning Lane Multi Pass is Disney’s skip-the-line service, and we noticed that the service will be dropping in price again soon.Â
There’s a NEW system for skipping the lines in Disney World!

Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Lightning Lane Single Pass premiered in Disney World in July 2024, replacing the old Genie+ offering. This new system is a paid offering, with prices varying depending on the park and the day, so you may have to budget differently depending on where you’re headed. But it’s exactly that varied pricing structure that may be causing people to make BAD plans!
For the past year and a half, one of Disney World’s hottest rides has been TRON Lightcycle / Run.

The coaster opened in April 2023 after several weeks’ worth of previews, and it began operating during the day with a virtual queue to manage crowds. While the ride has had a bit of controversy due to its restrictive seating style, the virtual queue has still been a hot commodity that fills up fairly quickly. But now, Disney has done away with it!

Have you used Disney World’s NEW Lightning Lane system yet?
Lightning Lane
Back in July 2024, Disney World changed up its Lightning Lane offerings, ditching the old ways of Genie+ and Individual Lightning Lanes and swapping over to Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Lightning Lane Single Pass instead. The system has made some major changes to how and when you book your Lightning Lanes, but one of the biggest benefits is that you can now check prices for Lightning Lane Multi Pass in advance!
Believe it or not, Disney World just got a little bit cheaper!

Over the summer, the Disney World dynamic changed when it was announced that Genie+ would give way to NEW Lightning Lane systems: Lightning Lane Single Pass and Lightning Lane Multi Pass. The prices for these services haven’t been cheap to this point, but it looks like September has brought forth a welcome shift.

Recently, Disney World updated its skip-the-line system from Genie+ to Lightning Lane Multi Pass, and we’ve been learning all its ins and outs since it premiered in July. On top of learning the intricacies and rules, we’ve been monitoring the price of Lightning Lane Multi Pass for each park, each day. And there’s something interesting you should know about prices this week.
Disney World’s Lightning Lane system has changed. Genie+ is no more and now we’re left with Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Lightning Lane Single Pass, which you can purchase all at the same time and days ahead of your trip.
Goodbye Genie+
Like Genie+, though, Multi Pass is still a paid-for service, and it still uses surge pricing where the pricing fluctuates daily. So on days Disney anticipates the parks will be busier, they raise the price of Multi Pass and Single Passes, and on slow days they drop. Based on the pricing for Genie+ in 2023, and looking at current Lightning Lane trends, we have some pretty good ideas about when we’ll see the 2024 prices for Multi Pass and Single Passes SKYROCKET.
