Are you a LL nerd and could lend me your ear?

With the newest LL changes, I've lost my edge. I'm overwhelmed at all the blogs and articles. I have some specific questions and was wondering if there was someone who could just sit with me and answer my questions.

Maybe there's a Q&A thread and I just haven't found it. Or, if there is one, is it 220 pages long? I'm aware of Ear Scouts and have watched some videos but I'd love to just talk with someone who knows all the ins and outs.

Is that you?

I would recommend reading the last pages of this thread. If you have additional questions after that, please add them here or there.

People here are very good at answering if you write down your specific questions.

Honestly, I don't see it being incredibly difficult at this point. I just booked my entire Labor Day weekend's trip's worth this morning without much issue. There's so much good stuff in each park now (minus AK) that the bookings get spread around decently (minus Slinky Dog....)

If you are familar with genie plus, you are going to be familiar with the new system.

Its very straightforward. You just buy the LL for the day. Make 3 choices when your reservation time comes up (7 days ahead of arrival if staying on property), then you can also buy the single pass (individual lightning lane if you choose).

Thats really it, after you scan in for your first ride you can then book a new reservation and adjust times for others. You make a new reservation each time you scan into one.

Happy to answer any other questions, but its really not as difficult as blogs and youtube video make it out to be.

We just went last week. We RD'ed every day but one (switched resorts that day) and took an afternoon break every day. We DID NOT use LL at all and did not regret it for a second. In fact, during our final wait of the trip (45 minutes for FoP) I was thinking how we had saved nearly $60 in that line alone for myself and my 2 kids. We saw absolutely everything we wanted to see.

If you really must sleep in and get up late then consider the cost of LLMP being the cost for doing so. I personally am sold on taking that break when lines are long and the heat oppressive.
