    Great video Chris, this should help many people with this confusing system... With that said, a recent change was made regarding ride breakdowns and the multi experience pass you get instead. Super confusing, but rides are now tiered. So if a lower tier ride breaks down (monters inc) your multi experience pass woudlnt work on higher tier rides (indiana jones).
    Another pro move is using LL modify to check for earlier windows of the same ride. Dont need to switch to a different ride.

      We are heading to the park at the end of June, and the one thing is will say about the Genie + LL is that I am not a fan about the 1 time use for each ride per day.
      I remember max pass would let us Fast pass a ride as many times as we wanted per day for the same price

    I went last year for, the first time in six years. I went with friends who are annual pass holders and really knew Gennie Plus, so they handled everything and I had a great time. I want to take my wife next year, Disney's 70th Anniversary. I told her how great Gennie Plus was and that I could figure out how to use it. Wow, I did not know all the secrets, thanks, Chris, for the tips.

    I was so confused seeing Haunted Mansion up and running in the background, then figured you just filmed it before that closed, THEN I saw Splash Mountain running and realized you were wearing a different tie and figured that specific clip was just filmed awhile ago. 🤣

  • @ItsameBS
    @ItsameBS Месяц назад +3

    His explanation of the Holy Grail (aka the Select Experience Pass, also known as MEP) is completely incorrect... Note: Provost is showing old footage when discussing this
    #1 If you arrive for Rope Drop aka park opening YOU DO want to book LL asap. BUT DO NOT use it, You want the earliest LL because an attraction may be down at opening which will give you an MEP. Most likely attractions to be down at opening are Indiana Jones, Runaway Railway, and the Matterhorn. Just remember to change your return times if the ride does not go down.
    #2 MEPs have different tier levels. Known as Gold Tier (currently Indy, Railway, Matterhorn, Space, Mansion Holiday, Small World Holiday, Web Slinger, Guardians, Toy Story) and Silver Tier (everything else not including ILLs)
    #3 You can no longer use MEPs on non-LL attractions. However, some Cast Members may allow it.
    #4 There is one more secret about MEPs, but I am keeping that one to myself.
    #5 If you get an MEP from an ILL attraction keep it as a ILL attraction MEP

      Thanks, I was disappointed that Chris gave bad info on this cause it’s very helpful especially for people who can’t ride certain rides because of motion sickness etc, it allows genie to still be worth it for us. I had a great golden pass day on Easter with six experience passes and three were golden. We got two rides on Indiana and one on runaway railroad. The other 3 days I got redemption passes at least once each day. Pirates only gave a pass for pirates but we were able to ride pirates each day whenever we chose and at 76 appreciated that a lot. I’m intrigued as to what #4 was lol. I hope people read your detailed response-so informative.

Is Disneyland and Anaheim pretty safe at night for female solo travellers? Love your videos! Often the highlight of my day ❤

    Chris I did this in 2023 and hope the information is still good. I used the Genie Plus with park hopper, so when we exhausted the riders at the Magic Kingdom we would move to California Adventure giving us more attractions to use Genie Plus and getting better value from the Genie Plus. The next day we would start at California Adventure and then swap to the Magic Kingdom.

    Hi Chris and Amanda, we love your channel. You guys are so great and every time we’re in Disneyland we look for you. We’re hoping to see you but I just wanted to tell you last month I booked a one day in Disneyland in May and when I bought my one day pass, it did allow me to purchase my genie plus along with it and it charged me the $30 per for myself and for my husband, I don’t know if it always does or if it just did for mine because we go a couple times a year and we are not AP holders . I just thought I would share that with you and I hope to see you when we’re there on May 15. We are from American Fork Utah.🩷

    It is rare that Individual LL sells out quickly at the Disneyland Resort. DO NOT book ILL early unless you really want to ride the ILL attraction early. Better to do other attractions before booking the ILL on a typical day.
    At WDW you should buy as soon as you can since you can select your return time.

    It's insane that the same business that made a ton of money and a lot of people happy selling tickets and a free fast pass system also invented something that almost all customers hate and makes them unhappy. This is a unique characteristic of companies that are very large and have a protected moat.

    Chris you missed a couple of issues. If we went to Disneyland there would 7 of us. My daughter would like space mountain but my son can’t ride it due to health reasons. I am disabled and couldn’t ride Matterhorn. The rest of the family would love Indiana Jones but my son and I would have to sit out on that one. The way you describe Genie +. The family couldn’t be broken up to ride separate rides. Seems like something Disney needs to work on.

When you reserve a lighting lane you then select which people that LL is for. It doesn't automatically apply to all in your group. (Someone please correct me if this is no longer the case.)

      @@mariheaton9261 I was there over Easter weekend the app will default to making reservations for everyone in your party but you can check anyone not to include. Then you can make another reservation just for the person(s) you didn’t include because they will be only people still eligible at that time.

      You most definitely can split up. Just make sure you click on the right members of your party when you select the ride you want. Then since the others will not have a lightening lane yet you are able to book them for the other attraction. Just make sure you only click the people you want to ride that attraction.

    Great video! Is it correct that you can't start booking lightning lanes until you actually scan into the park? At WDW, you can start booking them at 7:00 AM and I am more familiar with that. Taking our first trip to Disneyland this summer!

    What if I have a group that will be splitting up and possibly not going on all rides together. Can I select Genie+ for only some people and get another ride for others? Also if thye have the app can those with linked tickets do this for their own tickets or does 1 person need to make the reservation for everyone?

    I can’t wait to go back to DL in June for my bday! However, I was able to purchase genie+ in advance in April even though I’ll be at the park for the day. Did this just change where people can only purchase genie+ for multi day tickets in advance?

    Thank you for the video with all the info.. Gosh you spend all that money on the Genie plus.. and you still have to put in work to get it work in your favor.. not complicated.. but definitely inconvenient to use. It should just be.. if the ride has the Genie option.. go in the dang line and utilize your purchase!

    Always love the tips - wondering if you would touch on the photo pass program? We have done Disney World several times (pre-Genie service) but we are visiting Disneyland for the first time in August. We are getting Genie+ for the whole trip and one of the perks is that is comes with the photo program - just not sure how to use it.

  • @Ashley-bb5ts
    @Ashley-bb5ts Месяц назад

    We visited the park in 2022 for four days and I can't recommend Genie+ enough!
    One thing to add for parents with little ones is that if someone can't ride, you can use lightning lane twice for up to 3 people. For example, we were 2 adults, a six year old, and a three year old. The rides where my three year old couldn't ride we would let them know BEFORE they scan your pass, One adult and the six year old would ride... then the other adult and the six year old could ride again.
    On our last day we had 2 more adults join us and one of those adults could also ride a second time. Thats what I mean by up to 3 people.
    We used the method described at 12:55 and its a lot easier than it sounds. The first day we spent at Disneyland and we rode over 20 rides. At one point we spoke to another guest, we had done 15 rides and they had only done 5. We didn't feel like we had to rush or run around. It makes your vacation more enjoyable.

      @joe-du4kx Im not sure what you mean? My comment is not referring to DAS pass. Im referring to when a child is not tall enough to ride. This is standard practice to allow the second parent to ride. I was just sharring that you can use the Genie+ for the second parent also. 🙂

    Thank you for this wonderful video! I have a question for you. I have a big family and one of the problems I run into is that if we scan in for a Lightning Lane and then I want to book our next one before we actually get on the ride, my wifi/data goes out and I can't do it. This happens on rides where we have to go underground, such as Haunted Mansion and Pirates (the worst one is Indiana Jones) because it's hard to walk and book our next ride and keep up with my family. Do you have any tips for this?

  • @congoparrot

    so to be clear on linking tickets on on the app. only one person will have that on their app for everybody in the party. So if i am follwoing, the other people in the party will not need to link tickets? I just am hoping you can clear that up a bit.

  • @MikeTerry1969
    @MikeTerry1969 Месяц назад

    I understand your point about not using it early in the morning, but that's assuming that you want to ride that ride a second time later in the day. If you only want to ride it once, use it early and get it out of the way.

    I was wondering, can you buy multiple individual lightning lanes for radiator springs on the same day? Meaning if we got the ILL and ride it and then my kids wanna go again, could we buy a new ILL or is it like genie+ in the sense that u can only do it for the ride once per day?

  • @Adam-gm6of

    Now you post this, after I get back from Disneyland. Oh well, hopefully I did it right. and judging, I did. I still get confused on the whole ride is down thing, whenI was there I saw Its a Small World down, and I didn't book it, because I WOULD NEVER RIDE IT. Scariest ride in all of Disney. But yeah, I would never used my Disney plus at the beginning of the day. But I have in the past, and this trip, not using all my Genie Plus passes by taking that route. Wait 2 hours for this and wait another 2 hours for another ride. Couldn't use them all.

  • @Sweetumsweet
    @Sweetumsweet 22 дня назад

    If you choose lightning lane for a broken down ride , then the time expires and the ride is still shut down, how do you get a lightning lane ride for any ride? Does a staff member assign one to you? Do they pick one on the app for you? Do they give you a bonus one? I'm confused at the process.

  • @L84DSNY

    Love the video, but I have 2 questions. Using your booking space mountain for 12pm at 9am scenario; after I ride space mountain at 12pm and I still have my other booking can I make another selection after scanning into space? Or because I selected something at 11am I still have to wait the last hour of my cool off period? Second question, can I pick the return time or is it first available? Planning my trip for D23 and parks, hope to see you there! 😁💙💚

    • @eliseg0001
      @eliseg0001 Месяц назад

      1. Yes, you can stack multiple LLs using the 2 hour cool down period. Anytime you scan in for a LL, you can book another.
      2. Return times are first available, but before booking you can refresh the screen to see if an earlier time becomes available. After booking, you can select modify to find a new time

    • @SierraStewartVideos
      @SierraStewartVideos Месяц назад

      There is also a banner in the app that will show you the next time you can book a new attraction with Genie+. If you are unsure you can always check that but remember if you haven't checked into the ride yet, you may want to check again after because it may be sooner since you've ridden the other one already.

  • @ChrisLucas3
    @ChrisLucas3 Месяц назад

    You always have to book your first lightning Lane immediately that starts the clock, you can always modify but you always have to have a lightning Lane in your back pocket. Also if you rope drop book of space lightning lane, then go stand by, then afterwards you have a lightning lane. Redeem and keep on booking by that time the park is packed

    Chris, back in 2022, if you had an LL and the ride broke down you couldn’t just pick another LL ride. They were “tiered”. So if you had a “lower” tiered LL ride that broke down you couldn’t get on a higher tiered ride. I remember Indiana Jones and Haunted Mansion were higher tier. Has that changed (I hope)?

    • @donnab2520
      @donnab2520 Месяц назад +1

      We had the same experience about a month ago with Alice. It had changed and we could no longer use our multi-use pass. Also the CM had a scanner at the end-of-line entry to double check the pass level. It wouldn’t take it. But we could use it on a lower tier ride as listed on the pass.

    • @CheriB702
      @CheriB702 Месяц назад

      In my humble opinion, for $30 per person per day it should allow you to go on any ride as a replacement if the ride you wanted has broken down.

    • @aaroneis
      @aaroneis Месяц назад +1

      That’s the experience I had back in Feb this year (2024). I found they were “Tiered” when Thunder Mountain broke down and I tried to use the multi-pass on MRR.
      If you select the multi-pass, it will list the rides you qualify for.
