Annual Passholders with DVC stay booked...when can we book LLMP/LLSP?

[buzzrelly]

Hello! I have tried searching for this answer and haven't been able to find it. I apologize if it's been answered in the 187 page thread.

We have a DVC stay booked for October. Can we make our LLMP/LLSP reservations 7 days in advance?

If your reservation is a Disney Resort than yes, you should be able to book 7 days in advance. You will also need to have made your park reservations prior to trying to purchase and book LLMP.

You can tell when you are eligible by looking on the MDE app and attempt to purchase a LLMP:

- open MDE app
- on the main screen look for Lightning Lane section and select, 'Purchase'
- select a date on the calendar (from any that are currently available)
- On next page, select a park
- Select 'Lightning Lane Multi Pass for (park)'
- a list of people associated to your MDE will be displayed on the next screen under the 'Not Eligible' section
- look for someone in your travel party and it will say in the print below their name, when they are eligible to book

Thank you so much for all the info!

Thank you so much for all the info!

Just remember, a guest staying at a DVC resort, whether booked on points or cash, is still a Disney deluxe resort guest! Good luck booking your LLs!

Thank you! I wasn't sure because the wording about people having to make park reservations was weird. I'm happy the resort stay trumps that!

if you have an AP you will still need theme park reservations even if staying onsite.

If you have regular date-based tickets then theme park reservations are not needed regardless of where you are staying.

This is such a frustrating/tedious bug. If you're booking LLs and find that options are better at a park different from the one you've reserved, you have to try to switch your park reservation. I don't understand why being a resort guest doesn't nullify the requirement for a park reservation. Other resort guests don't need them.

Yes, don't remind me! This is so frustrating to me that as a DVC member with an AP staying onsite ALL the time and we still have to make park reservations

I agree! It's one of my biggest frustrations!
