Plan Ahead with Lightning Lane Entry at Walt Disney World Starting July 24

[sadiecatie]

I’ll be very interested to see how all of this unfolds in the next few days. Godspeed to all of you heading to the parks in the next two weeks. Thankful that I have the ability to watch and wait since we don’t go till December.

Do you think Disney will change the current pattern for updating park hours? Tomorrow there will be days that are bookable for LL, but the hours haven’t been updated.

Just wanted to drop in and say that those of you testing out the new system as it rolls out are this community's strongest soldiers. Godspeed, everyone, and I'm hoping everything goes as smoothly as possible!

I would go by last year's calendar hours for all park hours for the time being if park hours aren't' updated for upcoming trip. https://www.wdwmagic.com/calendar.htm

Then when the new updated hours roll out, you should be able to modify like the modify option you currently have in Genie+ and the old FP+ system. LLSP/LLMP system looking to be like the old FP+ system where if there's certain ride on your agenda, you're going to have to book backwards days like highly requested ADRs. Think this will have more of an impact on LLMP vs. LLSP.

Just back EE & RD still has the biggest advantage at every park at getting a lot done within 2 hours of park opening.

ONE MORE DAY BEFORE THE STORM

I just know I will not be sleeping at all tonight in anticipation of this dumpster fire in the morning.

Well now I need to decide, leave for work at 545, so I can be in by 7, or pull over at 7

Leave for work early. I would not depend on this actually working at 7 and you don’t want to sit in your car for half an hour facepalming only to drive off when the system finally works.

Same...I'm gearing up for a long night

If you are awake, check from time to time to see if the app lets you start booking before 7:00. Disney IT has a history of starting things before the announced 7:00 start time on days they expect a stampede at 7:00. (My experience is from the 'free dining' offer, but it is still experience.)

Thank you for this piece of advice. I will absolutely be checking here and there until 7:00!

I get up for work at 4:30 am so I’ll start trying then, fingers crossed my first park day is 7/29

I can't believe they haven't given prices yet.

 

[Haley R]

It would be nice if we could at least have something to practice and look at before tomorrow morning. I hate going in blind

I can't believe they haven't given prices yet.

The link in post 1671 shows prices. It may not be official, but thrill-data is a pretty reliable source. As for Disney officially announcing prices beforehand, they don't do that for Genie+, so I don't know why people would expect them to do it differently for LLMP.

If I am staying at a Disney Resort and my first park visiting date is August 4th. Is my booking date July 28th or 29th?

 

[CookieandOatmeal]

If I need to buy LLMP for 8/15, do I try on the 25th? I read back a few pages and it seems like tomorrow's booking only goes up to the 14th. We're going for a short 3 night trip and doing the Halloween party on that Friday so only need to buy that one day and we are staying on property.

If your check-in day is also August 4, it should be July 28. It isn't your park visiting date that counts if staying onsite; it's your check-in date.

The only people who can book for August 13 tomorrow are people checking in on July 31 with 14 day stays. The earliest day you can book is 7 days before your resort check-in date. You can book then for length of stay, up to 14 days.
