food IS a theme park
Planning a Disney World vacation can be daunting.
Crowds before Happily Ever After
There are Advanced Dining Reservations to get, Genie+ rides to research, and tons of Disney hotels to choose between. On top of all that, things are changing regularly in the parks — it’s a lot to stay on top of! But don’t worry, we’re here to remind you about some of the biggest changes you need to keep in mind to have a smooth trip.
Ever since Genie+ launched in Disney World in 2021, we’ve seen a LOT of changes to the system.

With Genie+, you pay each day of your trip to access Lightning Lanes around the parks (price starts at $15 per person, per day and fluctuates depending on the day). Think of the Lightning Lanes like the former FastPass lines — they allow you to get on attractions faster than if you stood in the standby queue. You’ll need to book your Lightning Lane choices through the My Disney Experience app, and starting today, there’s a change in the booking process for Disney World!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
