Testing How The NEW Lightning Lane Works At The Magic Kingdom | Disney’s NEW PAID Skip Line Feature
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 ต.ค. 2024
- The time has come the lightning lane has arrived at Walt Disney world. This is the new paid skip the lines feature, the replacement of the fast pass system. Well this was a big learning process and we found out the difference of staying at a Disney hotel va. Not staying at a Disney hotel. What I mean is the difference between being able to book a lightning lane and a individuals lightning lane. A lot to learn and figure out as the parks keep getting busy! If you have any questions please leave them down below , also remember I'm not perfect if I get some information wrong.

Here we go! This was definitely a learning curve and will continue to be. I wanted to show you all the process so you know what to do!
Yay 😁
I'm your mom....... Lost and we arrive in 4 days...... 😩
Thanks for the video. Nice to see it in the moment.
Hmmmm… so you were allowed to book before the time Disney said you could as someone not staying on property🤔. Just another reason not to stay on property for those “extras” 😩
Yay
I appreciate the organized way you attempted the different steps and options. It helps to see it in operation.
I hate everything about this. It looks like it just adds a level of frustration and additional costs on an already costly visit. The high capacity rides can handle large crowds rather smoothly without this. I wish Disney just got rid of all of this and just had regular lines like they use to. I have no problem with VIP tours for celebrities or wealthy people that can afford to pay hundreds of dollars and be escorted from ride to ride. But this just looks confusing and costly and will eventually make the regular lines move slow.
Well with regular fast pass the lines were extremely long because everyone could get a fast pass. So even fastpass would be very long.
it IS optional, so you don't have to pay for this service if you don't wish to.
Filmed and on to youtube in 3 hours, Kyle is a pro!
I gotta tell ya, I could figure all this out, but somebody like my mom or dad wouldn’t be able to figure it out in a hundred years, even if somebody explained it every day. It’s needlessly complicated.
Exactly! It's infuriating to me that going to the parks is becoming unfriendly to older guests. I want it to be just as welcoming for grandpa as it is for his grandchild and this just feels like the parks are only geared towards tech savvy generations.
You (or your parents) can still continue to use the standby lines. Genie+ is not mandatory.
@@echeng5722 Correct it is not mandatory. But those who do not use the system and do standby only are clearly at a disadvantage to those who do use it. Before, you could do the Genie+ equivalent and book all your Fastpass 30 (or even 60 days) in advance, and have a 3rd party assist to set up everything before arrival. You had a schedule, you got your bracelet, and enjoyed your day. Now in order to get the same benefits, you are required to constantly work with your technology and the fidgety app rules and quirks (that even Kyle has admitted has a learning curve) to get the same benefit you had before. It’s a vacation at Disney. You shouldn’t constantly have to do what is basically the equivalent of scheduling stock trades online to get the full benefits of your stay.
@@Snackdance what constitute the ‘full benefit’ of a trip? Shall we include the magicbands? The photo passes? The Disney headbands? Be My Guests? Free parking?
Nobody likes to pay for extra. Everyone loves getting more for free.
But either they raise their park tickets (even more) which affects everyone, or do this and raises the cost on those who wishes to pay for more.
@@echeng5722 I wasn’t talking about paying for extras. I understand the economics of providing premium services at an up charge (however I may disagree). My post is about the needless complication of the process and the app experience, and the requirements to use it even if you decide to take advantage of skip-the-line fastpass services. Before this was not the case.
I think you broke 98k subscribers today! Congrats! :D
Kyle I just want you to know that I love your videos. I'm a born again Disney junkie after my trip in September and I've been glued to channels like yours and DFB Guide ever since. Keep up the great work!
It just seems like it’s to much and as the planner of the family this takes away my enjoyment of being on vacation while trying to make plans in the park to get us on rides. Like you sitting there trying to get into the next ride. I don’t like having to get on our phone that way. I think I would only use it for ROTR and that’s about it…sad day in Disney today :( I miss fastpasses
Thank you so much for getting this video out today for us! Been wondering how it’s been going at the parks. This is so helpful. Love your videos
I knew we could count on you to give us the first look at the new process! Thanks!
Kyle you are killing it. Thanks for doing this. Good job.
Thanks for being one of the first to get this out!
ayeee I made the Patreon shoutout!!👏🏽😂
Thanks so much for going to the parks early in the morning everyday to give us the most recent Disney updates! This is defs my daily dose of magic! Been to DW 10 times and going again next month so very curious on how Disney Genie+ will work. Appreciate your channel and your energy! :) -from a fellow youtuber/Disney lover
Let’s go Kyle keep up the good work! Been here since 20k and can’t wait until u hit 100k
Been following you for a few years, but I’ve gotta say, this has been your most informative, most professional video. Well done! ✨
❤️❤️
*as I'm watching your video*
At 3:02 - *seeing myself in the teal blue behind you* Oh hey its me! 🤣🤣🤣
I did all the attractions/shows I wanted for the day. I feel that if it was on a weekend then it would be worth it. Today was a good day for me though!
I can’t wait to see how this works on a weekend when it is much busier!
Great content man! I don"t like the extra cost of lighting lane but appreciate you educating us on it!
Thank very informative video. But to be honest Disney is making it very difficult for a bigger family to go to the parks because it’s not very budget friendly too difficult to afford not to mention all the added cost
Thanks for showing us how it works. Looking forward to seeing tomorrow’s vlog to see the difference in the afternoon
I'm so scared about this. You spent $32, I have a family of 5, that's $160 extra for 1 day. This is so frustrating.
I’m sorry
You are such an MVP vlogger!! This was such a helpful and informative video. I think this vid is going to boost you to or at least a closer to 100k!
Thank you for this video as always it was great and quick!! I’ve been up all morning waiting for it and doing my own research & keeping up with everyone’s Instagram stories this morning! Also, let’s all remember Kyle said he wants to keep his personal relationships private and respect that! That includes maybe not mentioning it every time you see a girl with him! 💖
Wow Kyle! Nice job on the quick turn around! You rock! Thanks for all the info! 💜
Always excited for my daily dose. Genie+ seems a bit complicated but probably easier once familiar. Still bothered by paying extra money on a vaca that's already expensive.
This is my new favorite person, Love all your vids. Thanks for sharing your experiences.
Appreciate you doing this though so we can see how it works! Thanks for sharing Kyle!
Very helpful video, thanks for showing us how it works!
I've been waiting for this video! Thanks for testing all this stuff out for us!
Thanks. I have been waiting for this video.
My family and I are coming to WDW for the first time & it’s during the super busy Christmas break, so I really needed this info, Tysm!!
Having to pay tax on top of this service is just stupid.
They don’t get to choose what gets taxed.
That is something I don't understand about the US. Here in the Netherlands the tax is included in the price. So if they say something is 10 euro, you actually pay 10 euro. No surprising additional costs.
@@ParksWithMark Yes I know but they can advertise it in the cost and have it not be a surprise later on.
@@katenl8976 yup we have stupid tax laws in the US.
@@ParksWithMark yes they do - they choose to charge more for rides on top of entry, therefore creating the need to add Tax.!
Thanks Kyle . Its going to be interesting seeing how this rolls out across all the other parks too & all at different times of day :) x
I was curious how this worked thanks for posting it early
Thank you so much for taking the time to thoroughly explain and show how all of this works!!! I have been so confused, and your video definitely helped!!!!
Really appreciate the info AND the screen views! That’s really helpful.
You and Jojo should do a comparison video. Make a list of rides and one of you ride them with Genie + and the other ride them without it like a normal guest and see how much faster if at all the genie + is
We were trying to think how we could collaborate on this subject, thank you!!
@@KylePalIo yeah….I’m not sure how you can do it for one channel. I think it might just have to be one or the other but not sure. 🤔🤔
Thanks for the breakdown.
I have watched a lot of Genie + videos and yours are the best explanation because we get to see exactly what you are doing and how, Well done.
Hey! Not sure if anyone has commented on this yet. As someone who uses the disability access I was concerned after hearing in your last video that we would be limited to two attractions per day. I asked about it today while at the Magic Kingdom and they told me that there was no limit on the use of disability access. He told me that he thought what I was referring to is the fact that someone who uses that is now able to prebook two attractions before getting to the park. He said that the app can be a bit tricky right now as they are just rolling it out but you can still go to any attractions lightning lane and physically get your return time put on your magic band. Thanks for the great videos and hope this info helped anyone else who uses the disability access!
It is a little confusing, but what I'm reading is that if you do a pre-registration for DAS you can prebook two rides per park day (must be atleast 3 days in advance) and that is all you can book, but if you don't preregister you can go to guest services that day and then you can use the DAS pass as normal except now you can do it online with your own phone, which I am pumped about. Much better for parents like me bringing Autistic kids.
Thank you for posting this today! We’re headed back in November and I feel like I need to relearn everything again.
Hey Kyle! So glad you are informing us of how Disney World works now. It can be confusing, but you made it crystal clear! Looking forward to next video to see how it all works out when the park is crowded. Appreciate all you do for our info. Have a blessed day!🎃🎃
For me the wait times have gotten BETTER since Lightning Lane! Wasn't expecting that. Last week MK was intense with crowds. Was insane. Much better this week.
Last week was fall break.
Lots of great info and tips! Good to see that you can see when all of the return times are on one screen to help plan things out a little better. Most impressed with the AR Lenses though - lots of fun ones posted on Instagram!
I have been waiting for this! So excited to hear about the new system and how it works! Love the awesome content.
Thank you for testing this out for us!!! I'd like to see how it works with Rise
This was so helpful! I’m a visual learner, so this is just what I needed to understand how it works. Game changer! Can’t wait to watch the next ones.
First nice shirt second I love when you update and show us something new third I saw the new rooms in the contemporary you would love the shower in the room I saw it was all glass and large. But these options I don’t need the second week in December Most rides are a walk on and a shout out to Kyle‘s mom dad and sister Must move to Orlando someday🤡
Excellent video to see how it all works well done 👏🏻
I’m glad the weather is cooler now
great vlog !! there is nothing better than real examples.
Nice to see you today. Tiger finished the mountain challenge in 2 hours. We booked 7DMT with DAS through the app and went through the stand-by queue on the rest. They were reducing posted time by 10 mins for DAS, so a 30min posted time would be 20 min DAS. Tiger had a blast and made it to school for lunch!
I also read that Disney was boarding standby queue guests faster than Lightning Lane.
I'm in Disney right now (currently on a break at my hotel) and Genie+ is going to make things very complicated. Here's what I noticed 1. The actual wait times are longer than what's posted. I went on Jungle Cruise and Mine Train and there were announcements stating that ride times will be longer than what is estimated. I'm guessing Disney didn't factor that in. 2. You can't really make advance plans with Genie+ because it's based on what's available. There are also a few glitches but I'm sure they'll fine-tune it since it's the first day. Honestly, I prefer the parks without Genie+
Thanks for going today and informing us, Kyle! I’m still very up in the air if this will be worth it for my family when we take our trip in February! We try to go “phone free” on our trips and really be present and in the moment. This seems like it will be impossible even if we don’t use the + feature! :(
Excited to see your vids in the next coming months with the ups and downs of the app!
Great vlog. Loved the way you did this: We discovered everything together with you. Thank you!! Great job!!
So happy for you Kyle!
I really don't see how it's confusing, except for the two rides that you need to spend extra money on. I go solo all the time, so this is worth it for me.
All of you vids are great, that's how Disney videos should be made. Very interesting, thanks. Next year for our little family 😊
I’m here for this
Two of my favssss
Thanks for the info, I'm always impressed how fast you get posts up and with great information.
My family will never bother with this honestly though. It is needlessly complicated and costly. For those that may struggle with lines and waiting that don't have DAS this might help, maybe if you have little kids. But I just don't really see any advantages, nor do I want to reward Disney for their stupid ideas, they're getting enough of my money on a normal visit as it is.
Kyle you are wrong about the posted wait times. We were there this morning and the wait time posted for haunted mansion was 25 minutes and we walked on. The posted wait time For Pirates was 25 minutes and it took us 10 minutes. So the wait times are the way they always have been since my daughter worked there in the 90s. They have always made the wait times longer than they actually are so people feel like “oh this is so cool we got on quicker than we thought.”
I miss the original fastpass system 😭
We purchased this for Magic Kingdom on Tuesday and it was awesome! We learned that you don’t have to wait a full hour after you use it, you have to wait like 5-10 minutes after you use it to get another ride.
My wife and I just did lightening lane all day and ended up doing 8 rides all on lightening lane which freed up time for us to watch parades and explore more and enjoy the park instead of waiting in lines all day long.
Helpful video ! Sending it to all my fam members 😊
Will be interested to see the normal genie+ in action and whether it helps save time in standby
Quick to get the video out today!! Thanks!
Woo!! Perfect timing! Just got to my lunch break!
Great info, Kyle! Thank you
I love what you do! You go to Disney everyday! How do you do it, Kyle? I messaged you on Instagram a few days ago asking this 😅. I mean the editing and the traveling can really be tiresome. But hey it’s worth it 👍🏻
Thank you for helping us.
It was super easy and huuuuge time saver. Peter Pan was 70 mins and we had a 4 min wait with lightning lane !!
Time is money in Disney every second counts.
Same! That attraction was worth the Lightning Lane today tbh.
Would have liked to see you go on on a purchased LL during a later more crowded time of the day . You should have saved a purchase for later or tomorrow’s vlog.
This was SO helpful for me. Thank you so much!
Thanks for taking us for a walk through of Genie and Genie plus . I thought It's a Small World would be your first ride. Then hop over to Epcot to Figment. Just kidding. Again, thanks for taking us through a walk through of the experience. Enjoy your day/ evening. Closing in on 98K subscribers.
Kyle, excellent job!! Can't believe there's tax 😂 I've noted that tip if you have early access. Selecting a preferred time is nice 👍 I Can't wait to see the accuracy of the wait times..I think that will be the key factor, maybe, IDK. I still feel like it adds more complexity to the day not less. Are you going to see how that Genie works - the free day planner option?
Thanks for doing this!!
Seems like a good option if the park is busy. Your day isn’t busy. The problem is a larger family will pay a lot more. $10 x 4 is a budget buster. Maybe that’s why people aren’t buying.
Thanks so much for sharing all this info and your personal experience with it! Thanks Kyle! Also..Did you buy those sunglasses 😎 yet??
Yes, he did.
Thanks for the tips going for the third tim in November after work is off season. Living in Buffalo makes it hard to get out there so every tidbit of information helps.
Hey Kyle, sending you a shout out as you have definitely become my favorite Disney vlogger. Your videos are always filled with so much key information. Keep it up! One key question: do you think enchanted at MK is better when you are there live?
Still don’t think I’ll buy lightening lanes , thanks for this Kyle , stay safe x
Always informative. Thanks Kyle!!
Thanks for the video! I actually saw on another video that you can pick more than 1 at a time but once you book one, you have to wait 2 hours after that to book another. So you could feasibly have multiples in your account.
What happened to those nice sunglasses you bought? You seemed to be straining your eyes a lot today lol
Yay Magic Kingdom and Kyle 💕
I used it in HS and it was great! It was insanely busy there and it helped me a ton!! Only bummer was I tried to wait and get in everything before I took a time for slinky and I missed out as it was done for times for all day by around 10am… 👎🏻
Thanks so much for doing this. This video should be titled “How to have the worst morning ever in Magic Kindom”. 😄🤣
Walk before you run with this new feature!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
absolutely love your videos !
Hi kyle..tomorrow can you try to do the whole book a lightening lane 2 hours out n try to book one for “now” - cuz supposedly u can make two then. Idk
Will you do a day just to see how well the free Genie advises you?
Great video. Very informative.
So, at 7am everyone that’s purchased Genie+ can make their first lighting lane reservation; the exclusivity to on property resort guests is making an individual lightning lane at 7 am, in which guests not staying on property have to wait until park open to purchase/use that option.
can you and JoJo do a challenge with and without Genie+ to see how many rides you can knock out in a day. Do it on a busy weekend.........this would go viral!!!!!!!
This is a great idea!
Thanks for a great video. Sounds like LL in early AM is a waste/mess.. hopefully it was more useful for you in the PM
2 questions regarding Genie. 1. Do you need to be inside the park to make your first lightning pass of the day? Or can passholders be at home.. then go over to park when its time for their first one? and 2. Does the $15 fee cover park hopping? Or do you need to re purchase for each park you visit?
I'm wondering the same thing. Can you hop to another park and continue to use it there.
Heard it crashed early,gl for trying to help all of us learn this, 😀👍
It Is basically the same Maxpass System that Disneyland already had, with the difference that for the $10 it cost it included the Photopass and you could get the all the fastpasses for all the ride without paying extra like Space mountain. Nice video.
not me waking up at 5 am to watch this from
melbourne
